Manual vs Hydro Transmissions

[Raddad]

My son and I share my original B7100 with 4000 hours on it and a B7610 with 100 hours. I am spoiled by the HST.

No clutching
No braking
Infinetly variable ground speed
Full speed impliments independent of ground speed
Both hands on the wheel
Just move my foot for direction changes
Mow in reverse or forward
Dif lock with left foot, forward speed with the right
Brakes on the right just like my truck
Move the tractor just inches for the PHD

For my use there is no contest. I regret waiting 25 years to get my new tractor. If it cost $3,000.00 more and only lasts 15 years, it's worth it.

You must be just a hobby farmer!

Why must you be insulting and demeaning. In a juvenile attempt to mask your hostility you end it with 3 grins. This is a thread on Manual vs Hydro Transmissions not personal slander. My post in no way deserved your response. You have my sympathy Sir.

Chill out folks...

Anyone that knows of Egon knows he's one of the good guys. When he puts a smiley face, he means a smiley face.

I, on the other hand, do not enjoy the same level of good reputation as our coffee drinking friend from up north.... one of the reasons being my moderation duties.
