I've been hearing excellent reviews of the new SmarTrax MD's performance. Since you are already used to a Cruizer, what about upgrading to a Cruizer II RTK + Slingshot (or another RTK modem solution), hop on the MyWay RTK network, and add a SmarTrax MD for your steering and guidance solution? You can then pair it with the Integra for your application controls, data management, yield monitoring, etc.

In regards to your question about achieveable steering performance with the 4640; yes, "RTK-level" steering is possible. We're doing it in our 4440 with a Topcon AES-25 steering unit, X30 field computer, and AGI-3 receiver using a Digi modem on the Iowa DOT CORS network. However, the OnTrac 2+ (Ag Leader) and SmartSteer (Raven) are not assisted steering units which I consider to be consistently capable of reaching that high performance tier, which is why I mentioned the SmarTrax MD as a potential solution.
