I find the sound-guard cab about as handy as the 66 series factory cab. Gotta go in either over, or between the wheel, and side of the cab. And whoever designed it had never spent a day in a field with a tractor, there is no place for your knees when you turn around to watch what you're up to.

Could be we didn't wear our pants like them guys that are always outrunning the police on "Cops", I dunno.
