ToDoChris,
Excuse me for saying this, but at the point that you're at, what difference does it make? If I'm reading the information that you posted correctly, you've never driven any of these transmissions for any length of time. Is this correct?
If that's the case, then whichever version you ultimately select will be the one that you will become most comfortable with and the most skilled at operating. I mean, you can't miss something that you've never had, right?
Please don't take this wrong. ALL transmissions are GREAT! (how's that for being diplomatic /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif). But a person needs to decide which "style" suits them best, regardless of whether it's because of ease of use, the cost factor, or the fact that you like the shape of the knob at the end of the shaft.
Don't go assuming that just because many other people tell you something is true that it is true. Many excellent tractor operators would not have anything but a straight manual transmission, and certainly would not consider them as being cumbersome.
You need to buy what fits you best, and once you make the decision, you'll become an extremely skilled operator of that particular style. Then later on, you can tell some "NEWBIE" about the advantages of your tractor based on your experiences.
Oh yeah, I did mention that I haven't purchased my tractor yet, didn't I? /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
