Has anyone seen the D-Series?

I have not driven the c series, so it is difficult to evaluate turning radius. I thought it did turn a fairly tight circle. I have a JD 3720 CUT and the turning did seem comparable to that. The CUT has a shorter wheel base. 6" increase in the TC length may not mean any significant change in turning with the all wheel steer. I don't know if the increase in length is in wheel base or overall length.
My 3720 will put out 35 pto hp (44 engine hp). The current TC prototype is considerably less at this time. I think they need to be at least in the 30-35hp pto range.
I can't comment on ergonomics since I did not get to run it very long. I may have an opportunity to field test it this summer. I did bring up several ergonomic issues with them in my short trial. Prototype also have side view mirrors. This could be a plus or minus issue to some. I sent them a 6 page single spaced summary of issues to consider based on the 3point and pto as well as other issues.
