[QUOTE="7610 super q, post: 7079347, member: 6448"] I agree with most of what's been said so far. It's impossible to return to 1975. The cab on the Ford 4000 was an awful place to spend the day. The next generation bubble cabs with aircon would be fine for me. Then you run into HP problems. All S/H kit in dealers yards now needs 150hp ( unless you buy cheap Polish / Chinese stuff aimed at the horsey market ). That brings us to TW territory, with crash gearboxes...... so the next step is the 30 series which has a powershift gearbox. Then, bingo we've arrived in complicated, expensive to fix and unreliable territory. I would love to buy a new tractor for £5k though. Or a £130k tractor would be fine with wheat at £1000/ ton.:love: [/QUOTE]
