I was looking at craigslist the other day and found an L that had sold at auction that the guy could not make it to pick it up and was looking to get rid of it and as I have been placed under a spending freeze by the war department. We did some horse trading and I got rid of some farrowing crates and a grinder mixer and I got A 74 L. it has 2800 hours by the meter so who knows I don't know much about the combine its sn L4621 I am pretty sure its gear drive. Have not been around conventional gleaners Love the rotaries but had to say goodbye to my N5 this year. So now I have a 7700 I figure they aught to be about equal shouldn't they. I have heard talk like big engine and small engine L'? this one has a turbocharged orange engine. What is the grain tank capacity? well Sorry If this is hard to read I have been sick and feel a bit like a space cadet perhaps thats why I traded of my farrowing crates, its a little sad a little more finality in the fact that I probably won't ever raise hogs again. But i drove home tonight and didn't have to do pig chores lol
thanks Levi
 
Big engine refers to the 426, little engine is the 301. Google Gleaner L for more details on that year. Decent old machine. Ben
 
For the first time I can remember this farm doesn't have any hogs. I farrowed to finish for a lifetime. When prices tanked this summer I got out and bought more cattle. You made a good decision.
 
yea I got out the first time corn went to 7 bucks in like 08 I just miss hogs sometime I loved raising them they were how i got started farming and that was the killer buying expensive grain just murders you I will always miss them maybe i can get my son started when hes older lol!
