Anyone got first hand experience with a T6090 I have driven a T7200 that we had on demo for a week and they are similar spec, but more interested in performance, diesel use and reliability aswel as things to look out for and common faults, thanks

Youd be better off with the t7. The 60 series are gutless unless mapped or chipped and then thier savage on diesel. Shudnt have any reliability issues with either but the t7 is that bit more finessed (if thats the right word). After all thier basically identical but theres not one thing I could complain about with the t7. Oh and the cab doesnt want to through you out of it. In saying that the 6090 wud be a good machine but when youve driven a t7 thier just a step up B

Have driven a 6080 a lot on bed tiller, sumo n trailers (14t) and it a bit gutless when it come to it,,, Have got T7.235 on hire for month or so,,, will let u know how it goes I can suss how to use it properly,, first CVT have used,, it's full auto command job,,

Long wheel base pumas always seem to go a lot better than short wheel base ones that I have been in. You'll soon get used to driving the cvt Vern then going back is a step back B

Would ideally be able to buy a T7200 but would not be able to justify that extra money, have you any figures on the high diesel usage, it should be well above its work for most of the jobs I would be doing

Platfrom wise, the T6090 is actually equivalent to the T7.210 which is a pocket rocket. the 6080 is replaced by the T7.200 but with the updates to the engines, i'd actually expect a T7.200 to outperform a T6090. Diesel usage would be higher on the T3 unit (T6090) by about 7% model for model. so if you were comparing it to the T7.200 i would expect it to be closer to 10% difference. good tractor, will be in demand with those who look past the extra diesel usage for the simplicity of no adblue. what spec is it? id its a power command (which most were) it would stand a very small tweak if you needed a few extra HP - as its now likely to be out of warranty.. . .

I worked a 7200 and it needs add blue, I found it a lovely tractor to drive but it was poor on the pto when under pressure, it had no staying power.

I'd actually say thats where our T7.200 is thr most impressive, dyno'd at pdi at 188 at the shaft with boost in, which is pretty decent, i'd expect it to be more now that sh has 1500hrs done and is loosened off a bit. N

Has the Sidewinder tractors different gearbox software from none sidewinder? The reaction speed seems slower on a sidewinder. I felt the T7.200 quite sluggish compared to the T6080. Saying that, the 6080 has had a light remap to give 200 on the dyno. The T7.200 ended up getting chopped for a T7.235 which I have to say, is a much better machine than the short wheelbase models. Not as handy by all accounts but fit for a range of tasks without killing herself. B

Had the big lad on a sumo today, TBH it's only a 2.5m sumo so it where lugging it on fairly well, covered the ground well, setting the tractor up was "easy" select "gear" on the roller switch, 4wd quick look in manual to make sure the HMS position switch thing was right bob on, certainly coped better than the 6080 on very similar ground at the same depth, did appear to drink some cherry though,, comfy ride, I'm sure if I dug a bit deeper into the book I could have set up the wheel slip n auto change gear job thing (I think that's the idea) so it would run at say 1600rpm??? And change gears/adjust speed itself , Still very weird to not have a gear change, bit like driving the telehandler but with no obvious changes,, Nice though,, bit flash for a hire tractor, but hey some one has to drive it,,, N

I have never driven a tractor with an infinitely variable transmission. I hear some people saying that they are not worth it but in my eyes, I would say that once you got used to it you would never go back to power shift or manual shifting again.

Depends on the job although now I think of it anything I've done in the field always handier wit vario, nh very good, john deere not so good but none yet to match fendt. On road work and reversing round awkward spots the old gear and clutch still the best I reckon, te newer power command/direct drive type boxes are fuel saving now anyway so can't see the fuel saving argument for vario on roadwork being very valid anymore. Nothing worse though than being out mowing and one gear too slow and the next up not enough ponies. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The fuel Savin is on pto work or precision bed work. When .7kph could make a difference. I.e the difference between 2 gears is 1.2kph at rated speed and that is too fast, but the gear below is too slow. With a vario you always have the right speed.

Bit disappointing to hear they are a bit sluggish and underpowered for 175hp, I thought they would have great power, the money on a T7200 would be too strong and I would prefer not having to deal with ad blue, it would be working beside JD's 6920's and 6830's so if it can't comfortably outperform them in terms of power and diesel use I might have to have a rethink, the tractor is in England and is power command, I might have to see if there is one in a dealer around me that could be hired for a few days to see what they are actually like

They are 165hp. It will outperform those JD's I'm just comparing T3 to T4 and all T4 tractors perform better, regardless of brand. T

Would those T4's be better than the Tier 2 new holland engines in terms of performance....just curious really as I never drove anything newer than the T2:001_smile:

Depends on the set up. But some t4 machines are essentially t2 with adblue. Others are just t1 plus adBlue if you know what I mean. All t2 machines included some amount of exhaust gas recirculation.
