Pretty good article. It still doesn't show what is different about the new 1500s. MF marketing lags behind some in its ability to show what needs to be shown.
BTW, the page is to wide.

It's good to finally see some info on these. I looked at them this past weekend.
Why don't the manufacturers list their prices? The dealer I went to had the prices on every piece of equipment on his lot. It was so nice to see and think -- 'hmm that one could work - nope out of my range'.
This was my second look at the new 1500s - I like em!

OP
I can pass that question along to the people at MF and possibly update the article with their answers.

Muhammed,
Nice, fresh, new look. Good Job. The Deere intro was looking a bit dated.
Jerry G, no, the page is not too wide. If it is, time to upgrade your monitor. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Muhammad,
Thanks for the article and pictures! They are nice looking machines. I would be curious just what the price breakdowns are also. Thanks again.

ps. Guess we will probablly just keep using the old 1040!

Nice article and the ones I've looked at impressed me too. I don't understand though why they seem to have dropped the 16x16 transmission, I sure like mine. They also seem to have lost any syncronized gear transmission option on the 1528 models. Maybe they are more competitive with NH by using the 9x3 on the smaller hp models and reserving a 12x12 shuttle for the 33hp and up. I'm just sorry to see that though as I like the shift on the go ability on my 1240.

All the transmissions will be there. The 12 x 12 was just the first out.
OP
I added a section to the end of the article that lists the specific improvements found on the 1500 series.
