Anything new in the X700 for 19?

[usernametaken]

I went back a couple pages and didn't see anything posted. While on JD's website, I see certain models like the X739 listed as 2018 only. There were a few others as well. Is there a redesign coming for certain models or are they being dropped or? Any insight would be appreciated...

If anyone is interested, I found the answer to my own question.

Interesting. New front wheel hubs and alloy wheels will make it stand out. It will be interesting to see if the new mulch system came over from the 7 iron.

Tom, I agree. I like the wheels. Some say why alloy on a tractor but hey, why not. I also prefer the hydraulic mulch door over electric for longevity. The improved drive over ramps will good for the 2wd guys too.

I ordered a new x758 this past Friday thinking I would get a 2019. After the dealer called WI to place the order he learned that there are still about 120 2018’s in inventory and they would not start shipping the ‘19’s until that inventory was depleted/sent to dealers...

Are the new features worth the wait for you or are you still moving forward with your order? Welcome to the forum!

Each model is different. Some have moved to 2019, some haven't yet...

Interesting.

My friend has seen a Steiner and I told him after the sticker shock, go look at an X739 to compare.

Thank you!

I ordered it a few weeks ago and received the x758 this past Wednesday. It has rained every day since delivery so I haven’t been able to play with it, except the day it was delivered... The deck I received was the New 2019 version.
