Reversing operator's seat

[DHD]

This looks like such a good idea, when using 3pt. attachments, and driving in reverse.

I wonder if they'll ever be introduced in North America...

They have, but in larger tractors such as the New Holland TV145. This actually started out its existence as a Versatile reversible tractor.

This is ancient old technology. Agreed, it is cool though.

Different manufacturer, but same idea (and they are sold in North America - I have no affiliation with this company, just interested in their capabilities).

When I start plowing and mowing in reverse I'll look in to one of those seats.
In the mean time.........

For those of us doing snow removal for hours at a time with a rear blower, it has a much greater appeal, especially as our necks get a little older! Now if I had one of those going straight ahead jobs...

On my NH T4.75 the air ride seat can be rotated 30-35 degrees to the right to help with backing up but for hours and hours of work in reverse I doubt it would be optimal....
