Any good or bad thoughts on Deere X728?
Transmission in my Deere X485 is gone and need to replace.

I posted in your other thread but would really suggest that if you replace the X485 that you consider the X748 if everything will swap over. My X749 has plenty of power and really sips the fuel.
What I like about the diesel is to be able to run with slow RPM most of the time. It is much quieter and I will definitely keep getting diesel equipment. Personal preference I guess...
The gas engine needs to be run wot as that is where it is producing the power to turn the pump. Diesels are totally different. Anybody who prefers a gas engine over a diesel has never owned a diesel....
I'm just relying on what X74x owners and JD engine technicians say and that is that they should be run at WOT(meaning full throttle) since the pump is rated for max RPM's. Just driving around should be fine at less than WOT but when under load it should be at WOT.
