It covers ride quality over rough ground, joystick and power shuttle response, road gear speed testing with a loaded bale, and general seat-of-the-pants handling. It's informal and spec-light, best for buyers wanting a real-world feel rather than numbers or a walkaround.
Posted by the hesstondc channel, appears to be filmed at a dealer event so some promotional lean is likely despite the hands-on operator perspective.
It holds on pretty good considering how rough the field is, though you have to go slow or you'll get bounced out of the seat in any tractor.
It runs wide open going down a hill with a bale loaded, described as planted and holding steady during the test.
No, the power shuttle lets you keep the same gear without having to downshift while operating the joystick.
