6080

We are considering a 6080 with cab and FWA. Appreciate comments about this model-good, bad or just pertinent. Thanks.

AC engine with Fiat drive train.
Simple, powerful, economical.
There is no power shift/shift on the go.
In my opinion the worst feature was the archaic PTO clutch/shift mechanism.

Don't let the comment about the pto scare you. They are dependable, just takes some getting used to. I have drove one for 40 plus years, mostly used to pull a baler, so it gets lots of pto use. Mine has almost 9000 hours on it, never had the engine opened. Second set of tires on it,3 ac compressors, injection pump rebuilt 3 times, belts hoses and such in 40 plus years. Pretty dependable tractor I own almost 30 tractors of various brands and it is at the top (with my Ford) of being my best tractor I ever owned.
