I don't know when the Tilmor came along, but, the Planet Jr. equipment came along during the Great Depression. And less money spent to construct meant a lower price and more people could afford it. Plus it was used by people who were farming 1 - 2 acres. So the question is: How much did the Planet Jr cost vs how much did the Tilmor cost. Now what about the BCS, especially the diesel one?
When it comes to BCS versus tillmore. BCS is going to win. I have BCS tractor actually I have a few of them. And honestly tilmore I only use it for getting in between my crops because it's so small of a gap and it has a pretty nice attachment for dealing with weeds it's my weeder tractor. BCS is able to run so many Attachments plus you can ride the Dang thing. It's excellent because you can also run a hay baler hay rake /windrower. That being said I also still use Troy built tillers. They have their purposes. Most of my farm is small scale equipment. I have a ATVs 4x4 and a 6x6 hooked up to dump trailers. And of course a few small Garden tractors. Such as the John Deere X758. CUB cadet 1200. And the JD 140 and 430. Hooked up to the quantivator - Cultivator I have both. Only one of those tractors is 4 wheel drive I also have a little kabota tractor. I'm kinda like a commercial farmer only small scale I'm hoping that BCS will eventually let us have their harvester machine for grain because I want to move into grain. I also field tuff 8 row seeders and a 2 row corn planter. There atv size. And my garden tractors can pull them no problem. I don't need to use the ATV's on the dirt only for hauling during the harvest. In addition I also have 2 Walker mowers. Troy bilt mowers hooked up to 50/60 inch sweepers. / and 60 v-rake. And A-pole behind the dethatcher. And the detacher attachment for my BCS. I also use pull behind 7 gang reel mower. I have a 2+ acre lot that's just echo lawn that I let it overgrow until it seeds Then I cut it Dump it in a homemade silo I made and make silage for my dairy goats. I haven't found a planet junior now. But I did work with one if it's been fully restored to original they can go for 3 grand because they are the original grand daddy 2 wheel tractors. Back in the day my grandpa said they weren't worth that much but then again prices were different bought a 100 bucks for a brand new vehicle b a 100 bucks was hard to come by then. The tilmore cost around 2g. worth it for weeds if you really want to get rid of weeds definitely worth it. BCS. Little guy in their opinion hes not really that little hes about as strong as the big boys. Just doesn't have a differential lock that's about it. It's the 710. I have one I use it for getting in between my rows for corn with the Rotary plow. Brand new hes around 2G as well. The bigger ones like my 750 or 853 their 4g - 5 g money wise.
Great observation William. Jason's unit from the video is a bit different than the production model. We do have two tire options, one of which would be a bar/lug type like the PJ that was compared and one closer to the one on Jason's but a bit more stout and on a welded spoke design. Interestingly, traction/pulling power is better with the knobby type tire than the bar when you get into harder/compacted soils. In looser soils the bar tire is nice for a bit more flotation and it also sheds dirt better.
Wow, you weigh 270#, lol. I haven't gotten to run one yet, but the new Tilmor tractor is where the old & new came together as one unit, for the future of smaller market gardens. Another beauty i see is that it accepts all the old school planet toolbars and tooling, along with most any of the new modern stuff, so you cant lose in the battle with weeds. Multiple setups of weed slayer machines are your best, safest defense against your crops being over run. Death to WEEDS....................
It doesn’t have tractor tires I like to see tractor tires in my dirt I don’t live in the city but the country also why didn’t you show it moving lol does it sound like American tractor or city boys Honda
We also don't live in the city. If tractor tires and Honda engine are your thing, check out the new model: ruclips.net/video/6u5zwazKPJw/видео.html Feel free to search on RUclips if you'd like to see videos where the Power Ox 220 is doing work in the field. This particular video was a pre-production model that Jason used a lot in his fields and the purpose of the video was not to actually show it in the field but to compare to the older PJ walk behinds.
😂😂 apparently it's a fairly common phrase in the Pacific Northwest. Had us confused as well the first time we heard it. Per Google: It has a range of meanings, commonly associated with an English translation of "strong" or "monstrous". The word can mean "strong", "greatest", "powerful", "ultimate", or "brave".
A better comparison would have been with as Daviid Bradley. You mean government rega force you to put belt guards on? Well, people are so dang stupid these days.

VERY INTERESTING COMPARISON
What gets me, is, look at the tread on the PJ compared to the Tilmor wheel tread. Id like to see it work.

So, what implements are made for it, and whats the price? And where near Tulsa Can I see one? Still like to see it in operation
Please show how it works in the field
Please where can I get it in Uganda, and does it cost
You can contact Bobi Agribusiness Institute in Gulu, Uganda. They have them available.
