Subject: Re: IVT vs. Powershift?



West Texas
What about heavy tillage?

When we demoed a 8320 RT last summer I was not impressed when it would not pull our V ripper or the field cultivator very good. I would have thought it should have pulled the ripper 5 mph easy, it didn't.

Same with the field cultivator, we pull it with an MT 745 at 7 mph. This RT struggles with it at 6 mph.

It seemed to do better with it set on manual then on auto.


IVT might be ok for light duty work, but give me a PS for heavy tillage.

But then old fashioned stick shift is still the most efficient!! I never had any problems with them old transmissions!
