I guess they might sell  a few of the 710 version which I assume is equal with the Quadtrac 715, even though it looks bigger than the CASE.

The problem with this big increase in power is that the farmer will also have to increase the size of the implements that go behind them, and thats another big additional cost.

Theres a quite few 9620/40RX around these parts now, mostly by default having pinched sales off the Quadtrac simply by being the right "colour", but i'm hearing that farmers are so impressed by their 8RX's that they are thinking of down sizing  when their 9RX's come up for replacement.

Not so sure about the 8RX theory Phil, the info I've been hearing from people in the sales industry is that whilst the initial release sold well noones been rushing back to buy more, with virtually no new sales this year. The price of wearing parts, particularly tracks, and lies about how long a set of tracks will last, particularly at speed, being quoted as the main reason for not buying again.
