OK, so there you have it for inquiring minds about what Messick and CNH dealer are meaning about 15 year old technology. They needed the new/larger platform and better quieter Shibaura engine in an attempt to try and catch back up. Having to promote and sell a product that's a step 15 years backward from its predecessor can be a disappointment for skilled salespersons dealing with experienced customers.
Those changes, in no way, represent even close to 15 years worth of technology.....not even remotely. Take a tractor from 1998, and compare it with a 2013 Boomer, and the differences will be very obvious.
Every time someone asks for specifics about the better technology or better engineering that represents this mythical 15 year advantage to certain brands/models, the only answer we get seems to be HST+/eHydro, a fuel injection comment or two, and the sound of crickets.
