RRV, MN | Not that post like this does anyone any good whatsoever other than see who's a blowhard. Curious on two statements that were made. Mind this is on a machine that is just being released.
#1. How do you propose a 20% increase in belt life over CIH on a machine that has virtually no real world time other than "testing/demos". We have found belt life directly relates to what type of use a machine does rather than hours used.
#2.How is it known already that a lube for life undercarriage system is going to be any cheaper over the life of the tractor vs a oil bath CIH system. If a tractor of any color is going to weight that much on tracks you will have maintenance over time. We have alittle over 2K hours on a new style quad and have done 2 seals total, both were done its first spring. I realize there will be more in the tractors future but i feel the benefits outweigh the costs. So say "hypothetically" what if a lube for life system has issues at 5-6K hours with repairs of 15-20K which isnt unheard of on the 30 series. Which is more cost effective.
End of the day everyone has there own checkbook and can buy whatever they want regardless if you or i like it. | |
