Verdict

While the small evolutionary changes to the 6700 S and 7700 S Series are welcome, it is the massive leap forward in technology with the new fifth-generation terminals which really move these tractors on. The 67 and 77 have now finally got a terminal they deserve.



On top of the greater ease of use and improved functionality, the terminal choice also means spec levels are much more flexible, suiting everybody from lever lovers to technophiles. If anything, would a larger terminal option be good, allowing more information to be viewed without needing a second terminal?



As for the rest of the tractors, they seem to have aged well. The engine and transmission are certainly a good pairing. And with the launch of the new 8S, we know which way these are evolving too, with greater gear choice from the new Dyna-7 gearbox.
