I grew up around AC. I would jump back and forth from a 7000 to an 8050 alot. The biggest difference was I didnt smack my head or get hung up on the shift lever getting in and out of the 8050. AC has to win the most improved cab award for its era.
I owned a 4430 and liked the sound gaurd cab, especially on a 30 year old tractor. It was still quiet. Friend has a 4455 and you are right. Other than some small mostly cosmetic differences, it is the same cab.
I never minded the cabs on the 86 series IHs. I guess when I am running any of my FILs stuff, I am in the tractor alot, not doing chore stuff jumping in and out.
I have a 7110 and a MX135 now.
The 7110 cab is very comfortable, everything is in the right place, and quiet. The only thing I dont like is if you are taller and sit with the seat a little higher, you kinda have to duck to see farther down the field through the windshield. If they could have skinnied up that overhead console some, it would be perfect. Small gripe, I know.
The MX cab is flat out awesome. Its the newer generation with alot of glass. In that vintage, though is when all the cabs seem the same. I have run NH Genesis, JD 7400, 7610, and 7820. All have excellent cabs that are very similar as far as comfort, visiblity and such.
For some reason to me, I like running that Magnum over the MX, It just feels more like driving a tractor than an SUV. Although in the winter blowing snow, with that left hand reverser and easy shifting, the MX is my baby.
All the newer stuff is great in the summer if the air is working. None of them really seem to have good windows that swing way open, They are designed to stay sealed up. If the air goes down, you about die in the things. BW
