Or rather pay extra for what used to be standard?... makes them look cheaper I guess.

Benefits of profi plus- fairly obvious I would have thought.
- Even greater attention from the fairer sex.
- Envious neighbours.
- Increased level of pub conversations asking you about it.

Sounds like the 16 plate T214 I used to drive, was a fantastic tractor to drive and use but as much as I loved it, even I couldn't defend how much of an unreliable b***h she was

The silver headlight surround is profi. No idea about the spools
So......what exactly are electric spools ?
Normal old fashioned spool valves operated with solenoids, rather than rods and linkages ?
Or is the whole set up completely different ?

Instead of pulling a lever all day you push a button, switch or little paddle.
Benefits of this are numerous:
1. More attention from the fairer sex.
2. Envious neighbours.
3. More people asking you about it in the pub.
4. You can finish a 16 hour day in the cab and still have the energy to chase your other half around the bedroom.
5. Far reduced risk of rotator cuff injury.
Yeah, OK, I get that, but are they just old school spools, but controlled by solenoids, or is the modern set up completely different ?Instead of pulling a lever all day you push a button, switch or little paddle.

Think you mean the dudk spools. They have an external release leaver to depressurise and release the pipes. If you are buying a Fendt these are much better than the other spools. Definitely spec these on a new machine

Yes, they are just valves as normal but controlled by solenoid as far as I am aware? Same in most of the brands.

Only certain way to tell a Profi or Profi plus is it’s written on the door.

You left out that the pressure of making payments on a new tractor compared to owning an older tractor may reduce your desire to chase said other half round the roomInstead of pulling a lever all day you push a button, switch or little paddle.

Some additional lights too come with the silver nose? An example of the numerous differences between power and profi that the brochure does not explain.

Do JD still do Ultimate edition? That basically has every available option.
Would think Fendt would do the same.

Profi Plus has all most every thing on it
Profi , can be spec up to what you want
Power plus has a smaller screen & has GPS
Power , is the most basic & most have no GPS

Think all the screens are 12 inch now with FendtONE
Jd have gone off the idea of set specs so you can basically order just exactly what you need or want.
