 Floyd County, Iowa | I have a '96 8100 mfwd with 4600 +/- hours. Put about 120 hours a year on it. Love it. Has the 7.6 engine.
Yes, there's a hard shift between 4th and 5th, but I hardly ever go below 5th, and if I do, I use the clutch.
Yes, there's a jerk between 12th and 13th, but usually only when the transmission is cold. Once it warms up, and at around 1400 rpm, it's about like 11th to 12th. I usually use the clutch going up into 13th and down into 12th, though.
Dealer can tweak the shifting a little, but it's not bad to begin with.
I figure it's a tractor, not the family car.
