[QUOTE="DrDunc, post: 7717671, member: 615"] The duel clutch shifts really are super smooth, but why do they still whine like the straight cut gears on the old sixteen speed? Or at least the one my neighbour operates does when it's passing by 😱 There's a big overlap of gears between the 3 ranges. Makes the shifts very smooth, but not so handy if you're doing PTO work. There's really only 16 distinct speeds (from memory), so for baling / raking / spraying / fert spreading etc etc, you're either going too slow or too fast with the big "jump" in speed between gears. If you want to go slower than a couple of kph, you'll need to make sure it has the creeper box option. Again the super smooth dual clutch sequential gearbox lacks ratios here too. If you can live with the compromise the limited number of speed ratios creates, it's a lovely gearbox to pull a trailer on the road 👍 If you do any yard work, or if you ever take a tractor anywhere near a field, ever, I mean any job at all that involves soil under the tyres activity, then go CVX. Hope that I made my opinion clear there ? 😂 [/QUOTE]
