Got to be a misprint. Of course it probably varies with the size tires you order. My 5045E is 8 ft 4" to the top front of the canopy and I doubt a cab will be any less.
vtsnowedin thanks for the input. I can not get any info on these machines. I am looking for something bigger for haying. The 3720 does it, but I would be much happier in a bigger tractor for stability above other things.Hoping some other members gan give me some insite and info? Looking for either a 5075E cab or the 5083E Cab.
Both of those with a cab are a lot of tractor. Do most anything you could want short of big Ag corn or wheat. JD build your own on the 5083E gets you up to 48k pretty quick with lots of useful options not yet checked off.
Here are a few for sale with pictures but i don't know where you can get full specs and dimensions. http://www.tractorhouse.com/list/list.aspx?manu=JOHN+DEERE&mdltxt=5083E
