    Im one of the 20mph cart drivers 🤣 We have very soft, forgiving soils here in South Central Minnesota. We run a 9510rt, and Kinze 1300 on tracks, and they ride down the field very well. Anywhere it gets rough we slow way way down. We actually have to go that fast in some situations to keep up in 250 bu to the ac corn 😳

    hey mike
    do you know that you can set the Fendt with the TMS that when you operate the hydraulics that the speed automatically increases the same with the PTO so that the tractor does not have to run at the set engine speed all the time. only when you need it.
    but it's nice that you at least have something to harvest there.

    Hey mike put a strip of black electrician tape on the side window of tractor where from your seat the tape follows overtop the swath in front of combine then you can unload in the go no matter how long the combine auger is. The JD combine augers are alot higher once they are all the way out but you still have to watch in uneven ground

    It would be a great idea if the grain cart manufacturers, built a cart where you can choose which side that you want to unload from.!🧐!
    It really can't be all that difficult to swivel the unload auger. Especially if the bottom of the auger is right in the centre of the cart.

    To your point about the bigger carts and swivel spouts, our tractor on our 2000bu Brent went down and it’s literally 2 harnesses. One harness for the scale and one for the remote that runs back to the valve block. Had it switched out in less then a half hour. The difference is that we don’t necessarily run our harnesses through the frame of the cab to make it neat with less clutter, but it also avoids making it a somewhat permanent installation. Both remote and scale can we wired with plugs that plug into the cab, no direct battery connection required.

    Why not make the Gate Open/Close, Auger Open/Close, Auger Tilt Up/Down & all Auger Spout functions of the grain cart ISOBUS? Most tractors are now standard with ISOBUS harnessing and a display to program the UT so swapping tractors becomes a five minute job - Drawbar, Hydraulics, PTO, Signal Connector & ISOBUS Connector. Some tractors now include an integrated advanced joystick on the armrest that will negate the need for an auxiliary ISOBUS joystick. Just need the implement manufactures to adopt ISOBUS so simple connections between tractor and implement are created.
