Don't get a cabbed tractor...

[jenkinsph]

Conditions this year have been so dry and dusty this year that I am really thankful to have cabs on my tractors. It was so bad last weekend while tilling a field I had to drive against the light wind tilling just to be able to see where I was going. Then drive back to the starting point and repeat.

I upgraded to a cab on a new 3720 last year and love it! I got ten acres of lawn every week. The physical comfort of the cab is great. The lack of any dust or elements has made my life much better and my allergies are at rest. The winter was great too. I have 500 feet of driveway way out in the country. We always have high winds here and the cab makes a big difference in my ability to take my time and finish the job in short order. I was a traditionalist for a long time and always swore I would stay with an open station configuration - as I get older and experienced a quality cab from John Deere, my opinion has evolved.

About how much does a cab add to the price of a new deere or other brands?

I priced a cab model of my tractor Kioti DK35se and the cab added $6200

I sure was wishing I had a cab yesterday cutting grass when it was 100 degrees outside.

With high humidity and temperatures around here, a cab would be in the category of a safety device.

However I figure a Deere is just like a horse, and the first opportunity it has it will go under a branch and knock the burden off and head for the barn.
