is the tranny on the 1233 synchronized?

i found a real good price (10k or 13k with a 1246 fel) on one not too far from here (about 100 miles) but don't want to make the trip to check it out if the transmission is a standard collarshift.

i don't do a whole lot of loader/dirt work, but enough that i don't want another gear grinding non-synched tractor.

Charlie,

The brochure calls it either just "mechanical transmission" or a "sliding gear" transmission, which sounds like no synchro to me.

By the way, that is a great username you've got there.

that's too bad. i really liked the rest of the specs.

can't take any credit for the username, i'm just borrowing it from george jones

Kevin,
There is going to be some new attachments and or equipment but as far as I know there isn’t another new model right now.
