Fendt Gen7 and Valtra Q incoming...and the chances financially of changing our Fendt S4 718 diminishing :cry::ROFLMAO:

Fendt remain Deutz engined but forced-cooling system or could we see Agcopower in the lineup? Valtra cab looks unchanged externally

All the farms just paid £160,000 then for the 724 with the new screens and stuff in them must be upset that now there is a completely new looking 700 series released but running the same interior screens and software etc. whats it going to do to their residual values?

But those farms have their gen 6 now, the gen 7 will be a year or more before you'd see one if you ordered now, a 942 is late 2023 early 2024 if ordered now

We got a Gen 6 720 in January. Doubt it will be changed for 10 years or more so probably irrelevant to us.

It’s lovely - if I’m ever allowed on it! 🥰

Think we'll be on a lookout for as low-houred as possible S4 724 Profi to change the 718 Power to....Gen6 seems a bit beyond our needs nevermind the jump to this larger frame. Be nice to have 4 paddle-switches for the spools now tankers etc are more demanding for hydraulic controls etc and a large screen for GPS control of sorts in the near future....pity they didn't keep a more basic Power version but I guess it's not cost effective or no market for it in this power sector....god forbid I've to pull a cable-spool again 🤣

They update their model ranges quickly these days, can’t be long since the gen 6 came out.

I’m sure it’s lovely etc, but can’t help thinking that by stretching the wheelbase they’ve messed up the proportions of it?
There keeping the gen 6 certainly for a good few years apparently been told by our dealer as smaller frame and for those that don’t need vario grip, weight and 65k

Nope staying but there is 0.5-1t difference and height etc wise there is a big difference, really there to fill 2 different markets the 728 is what the 828 should have been

728 might suit some areas of the world but it is not much good here. I need an 828 with a new cab. 728 too short. Wrong cab I need 300 hp with a loader. Might just have to bite the bullet and put one on a 900 series.
