Slightly longer wheel base and bigger backend.

Yes I believe it will, and a better cab finally!! Coming out next year at some point.

There's a larger 7s with new cab coming out soon, with up to 250hp. Has anyone else heard this?

We have two merlo's 40.7 with boom suspension and 42.7 with boom and cab suspension. And i would say the cab suspension is definitely not a gimmick and worth every penny in my opinion.

The plug your after is in the fuse box. Same place where you isolate the battery.

9s coming out soon?

Capacity is the reason given, population is growing, and the train network is running off a 18-19th century design at present.

Has anyone been on a factory tour of late and seen or heard about the new 4 post cab for the 7s, 6s tractors. If so when do you think it might be launched??

The new 8s cab in terms of Comfort and visibility is in a different league to the 7s in my opinion. Once you've driven one a few hundred hours you'd think the same.

Until their is a cab suspension on another make I wouldn't look anywhere else, comfort is on another level!! Merlo is a very powerful machine both in the field and on the road.

I did say it needs to be a little smaller than the 8s cab in my post to be fair.

Had a small issue with the drakes stopping you go 55k down the road which was sorted pretty quick, with any new design you'll get little issues crop up, so far I've been very impressed. Its a Lovely place to spend the day ploughing, mowing, etc just a shame they couldn't of got a similar 4 post...

In the 800 odd hours driving the tractor I can say only 2-3 times have the beacon's been bent down, not once have they smashed. We have a 7720 and smaller 7616 and the 8s is in a different league in every way! The dyna 7 box is light years in front of the dyna 6. Drive it in auto mode mode...

they look better on 710 70 42s with the wider mudguards.
