I got to bale some bean stubble with my brother's Agco RT140A this past week. After driving his CaseIH MXM190 with fwa most of the week, it seemed like a race horse. I liked the hood lines, but the rear posts on the cab were right in the way of the rear view mirror and blocked a lot of the view of the baler. Otherwise it seemed like an easy tractor to operate...I bounced around a little running 9 mph with the baler rocking me back and forth, but I can't complain since I was in a nice heated cab with some good tunes playing! Farming just ain't what it was 30 years ago.....

They redesigned the cabs, at least on the bigger ones.  I chop alfalfa with a JD 8400.  I've had to switch to the AGCO rt150 before.  Didn't have to slow dow as much as I thought (225 hp vs 150 hp).  I would like to trade the 8400 in on a dt225 or dt240, but that cab post is i way of seeing pickup head.
