Subject: RE: JD 8100/8200 vs 7810


Near Intersection of I-35 & I-90 Southern Mn.
We have a 7700 2wd, an 8310, an 8120 and an 8310R. The 7700 has the power quad shift, the 8000's are all powershift with MFWD. Nephew has a 7830 with IVT and MFWD

I like them all. You may want to drive the 8100 and check out the 4-5 and 12-13 shifts. The 12-13 can be particularly terrible on those tractors. This alone would discourage me from buying it especially for a grain cart. After owning the 8310, I drove a used 8100 that I was considering. I couldn't believe how terrible the 12-13 shift was. I questioned if it needed adjustment, the answer was that No, it was adjusted properly. The shift can be brutal due to the fact that two packs must change ratios. The situation has improved with the newer models.
