Took a ride to the Deere Dealer today to drive a 4320 with cab. Glad I did.
I am impressed with the cab. Well finished, quiet, and quite a bit of room in it. The doors are BIG and open wide so getting in and out is easy. Actually, as easy as my TN75. Not quite as much room but plenty. Much more room than the McCormick GX50 I just sold.

The turning radius is nothing short of amazing. Much tighter than the GX with the same wheelbase. View out the cab is superb. Controls are well positioned. The range lever was hard to move. In fact, I thought I was missing a step at first. I suspect it will break in. eHydro is easy to use of course and I suspect it is a short learning curve to get used to the let off deceleration.

Loader bucket seemed a bit small for moving manure and such. Front wiper worked well as did the heat to defrost. It was 34 and raining so that was a good test.

Overall, I am impressed. i would like to hear from anyone that cuts, teds, and rakes to see how it behaves in the field. I am guessing that the ride is a little rough but tolerable.

I have a 3720 with cab that I mow my pastures with a 8' pull type woods mower. You are right it is a little rough but it is tolerable.

I do not remember how exactly but with the toggle button on the dash you can change the rate of deceleration to something more your preference. (slower or faster)
