Bill: How many of those 7 TA equiped Farmalls did you buy new and how many total hours are on them?

I'd like for you to explain to me, the real working difference between TA and Power Shift. I'm not aware how all of them work, but have had about 13,000 hours experience with a Deere 8 speed Power Shift, before it required rebuilding. Having lived in a farming community, I've heard just as many horror stories about power shifts as TA, and in both cases most of it has been operator error.

Most of the damage to either system has happened out in road gears rather than in the field. Any one who has driven trucks realize the problems associated with driveline shock. Tractors over 10 mph are really no different. One must match engine rpm's to the gear he's going to at these speeds. If that can't be acomplished, one best stop. These are not 1,500# dune buggies.

You can probably find two people to agree with you, for every person I find to agree with me. That will give you some idea just how many folks treated tractors like dune buggies, race cars , etc. There are probably 2 dozen guys on this forum that have experienced the same kind of performance from TA as I, and with several tractors each. It was a case of firing all cowboy operators, even if they were family.
