I’ve got a 2014 8370rt brought as ex demo machine. It replaced a 765c.. so far it’s been a much better machine both to drive and reliability.

What about the ability to hear yourself think from the drivers seat!

We run an 8370rt, it has a quiet and comfortable cab, but having quite a few issues with error codes randomly appearing, limiting the tractor to 10k forward speed. Possibly sensor related, but the local dealer has been out several times but the issue is still undiagnosed.

Just knock the BPS figure off the rent and carry on.

Good luck with that rent review if you think that’s what landlords will stand.

You've obviously spent a lot of hours driving one?

Market forces will override everything.

The same market forces that created the current silly high rents?

I've never driven a modern newer-shape CAT, only been a passenger. Having no tracks licence is a bit of a pain in the chuff in that regard.
