That's exactly what I've been trying to say for the past three posts in this thread. I feel like you're either not reading what I'm typing at all, or you're just messing with me.

From post #11:
I've been looking at the JD 5x03 series. They don't even have a parking brake, but rather a pawl locked position on the gear selector that basically locks the driveline.

I said pawl locked driveline and you say putting any tractor in neutral should do that. No no no.


From post #13:
If I understand you correctly, I don't think locking the driveline in the neutral position would be good. One would never be able to move the gear shifter out of any gear without the tractor being completely stopped. This would defeat the purpose of having synchronized gears in some of the newer gear tractors.
It would also make the tractor kind of a bugger to tow.

I explained that putting a tractor in neutral should not lock the driveline and you tell me it shouldn't be any different than a car. That's kind of what I just said.
