No IVT on 20 series. Should have everything else. 9 litre motor in 30 series v. 8.1 in 20.


You sure? Guy here had one that was a prototype. One of the first 8520's built, was a demo and he bought it and later had some troubles with it and turned out it was a prototype that was never to have been sold. It was an IVT though I'm positive cause I drove it a bit.

For what it's worth I had a 7920 with the IVT..


Yeah, he's right. No IVT in the 8020 series. I have heard the same rumors that there were a few 8020's that were produced with IVT, but I've never seen one.

The 30 series should be auto steer ready. That was an option for the 20 series. For what it's worth, we have an 8220 and a 8230. The 8220 has been the more reliable tractor. Over the past year, our 8230 has been throwing codes left and right. New turbo actuator, new armrest computer, and it still needs a steering wheel sensor for the auto steer. Each one of those problems were a minimum of $1,000.
