Yes...popped by the Spammers and by You.

You shoul have visited the Fendt side after agritechnica, the trisix. all the people which thought that it should enter the market had ben wrong, so me too. The Trisix was an experimental tractor, to show the people, what is possible to build, without touching any rergulations for roadtransport.

Hmm, so what you're actually trying to say is, that i was right ?? That would be a first !!!

Not that that was why i'm asking.. i seriously havent followed the ag industry too much lately... Too busy with my new job, engineering heavy wheel loaders...

My thoughts:

Fendt is making a big PR stunt of the Trisix but it will be too heavy, too expensive and allow for too little sight on the implements to actually get sold. (we already knew that)

Whilst the world is debating the feasibility of the project as is, Fendt is getting their independent wheel suspension and driveline field tested.

When the media attention about the trisix has faded, Fendt will introduce a 300 to 400 hp range of equal wheeled, four wheel steered tractors, using this axle which is now being field tested in the Trisix...

Thats my thought.
