NE Indiana | Re-calibrating the transmission may help with shifting.
The good:
Price. 30% cheaper then the equivalent Deere; or, the capability of an 8R at the price of a 7R.
Cummins engine, Cat transmission
Very simple tractors, but they do have some creature comforts.
The bad/ugly:
Poor fit and finish compared to competitors.
Weak tie rod ends may require an upgrade to run front duals.
Rather silly electrical issues sometimes occur (multiple failed HVAC modules or loose female pins on fuse board failing to provide power, for instance)
Poor resale value; popular only in certain regions.
I think they are a good choice for budget conscious farmer that needs a high horse row crop tractor or for big operations that employ steering wheel holders.
Versatile is good about addressing problems and issuing campaigns (product improvement programs). | |
