[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 7472346, member: 718"] They do listen which is why they make the tractors they do. Technology is what the vast majority of farmers want. Very few basic tractors sell in the UK. The TM Classic range proved that. For all the noise about 'wanting one', very few were actually sold and those that did found that they were nowhere near as productive as the more sophisticated models. Power for power they just couldn't keep up. It a fanciful myth that technology is particularly unreliable. Time after time it is found that the vast majority of issues with tractors that stop them working are mechanical in nature. To an extent the more technology a tractor has is divorced from extra complications or extra components. It mainly means that the computer is more powerful and therefore can do more of the tractor's management. The exception is the engine's emission equipment of course, which serves no productive purpose but does add most of the extra or extenuous complications to today's tractors, no matter how 'basic' they are otherwise.
