There is nothing even close to comparing new to old these days IMO. I will spend whatever it takes to keep my 682 on the go before I would settle for what is on the market today for GT's. I get ill when I look at what they are built like these days (yes including CC stuff). The best conversation I have had in a long time in a store was with an old guy in a "box store". As I watched him shake his head, I said to him "they just don't make anything worth buying these days, do they?". His reply started out as " I want a real tractor, not this yuppie junk!" :biggrin2.gif:
