I believe that everything my dealer has had on the lot with a cab (CUT) had the Dyna QPS™ powershift transmission.
I believe I've seen something somewhere indicating that Hydro was an option on the smaller cab models.
I'm not familiar with the Dyna QPS™ powershift and don't think I need it. I'm thinking more along the lines of 12x12 powershuttle.
Looking over the MF website I did notice some things that came along with with cab, such as dual rear remotes, but no mention of the drive train. I may have just overlooked it.
Anybody here know if you can order a cab model 1552 with the 12x12 powershuttle? Any idea what the price difference is between that and the Dyna QPS™ powershift? I also had the impression that the Dyna QPS™ powershift and the Hydro were about the same cost.
I could go and talk with James at the dealership about this, but he would get his panties in a wad and think I was ready to buy. I hate to bother him with it if anybody here can help.

Glenn,
The MF page that shows which tranny goes into which model is here. It looks like the large frame can have any one of the four transmissions. I love my powershuttle, but if the powershift was available when I bought I would have gotten it. I would bet that the hydro and the powershift are in the same price range but I haven't priced them both.

The 1533 Cab is available in 12x12 PowerShuttle and comes standard with the factory joystick w/mid couplers. The 1547 Cab is available in either a HST or DynaQPS (12x12 PS w/4 speed clutchless shift). They are priced similar to eachother. The 1552 Cab is available only in the DynaQPS. Both the 1547 and 1552 cab models are equipped with 2 remotes out the rear and joystick w/ mid couplers as standard. Hope that helps.

Thanks. You've answered my question. I was looking over the website and didn't indicate any restrictions on transmission choice with the cab models that I could find.
I was hoping to be able to get the powershuttle with a cab, but it looks like I'll have to either go with the powershift or another color.
I'm not familiar with the advantages of the powershift, so after I try it I might not be able to live without it!
