A BIG thanks to Oliver Landpower for supplying This JCB Fastrac 4220 ICON for us to have a look at. Can the new Cab layout cut the mustard? We find out!
The general camera work... drone work... mix and edit on this is taking it to the next level George. Beautifully done sir! That JCB is quite the bit of kit and all.
Very nice. I’m impressed with the previous generation. Been in one approx 6 weeks on a 16 ton Bailey trailer carting Potatoes. Not done any draft with it yet. Love it.
Explain very well bit different to my 2135 with all gadgets to make it easier to drive may have to leave Custard Cream’s at home. Keep up the good work family farm’s backbone of British agriculture.
What you need George is a system that does all the work for you, a bunk in the back of the cab, and 'teasmade' to wake you up with a nice drink when it's finished... 😁
Looks mint George! Worth saying though that our Fendt Gen 6 has got all the same features on its screen and I think my neighbours new JD 6185r does as well, but good to see JCB keeping up with the herd.
I guess me and mucker are the same. I want the fwd and reverse pwr shuttle on the left column. I want the gear selector on my right thumb and everything is right in the world 😅 case puma 👍kubota m108x 👍 m9540 👍now the other case farmall it has the selector on the left side of the seat no power shuttle and the shifters on the right side of the seat for speed but its still a great tractor and I have run it for so many years I can shift and shuttle just as fast as the other tractors for the most part. I like the options to switch everything it looks like the tractor I would get my son to run because he loves the new tech. We are looking at the t5 and the vestrum we will probably go with the vestrum because it is just about all we can get after all the shortages and the new world we live in great video george
Looks like someone a happy boy wondered how long before you got your hands on the new fastrac had one few weeks ago on demo right power house pulls our larrington no problem fully loaded
The amount of technology in that machine, how long would it have taken in product development to get it to that final outcome ? If that is what is available today, I wonder what will be getting thought of today in product development that is going to be in future fastracs. Excellent video 👍
What the 4220 needs is a greater selection of wider wheels, and maybe some more horsepower closing the gap between the 4220 and the big 8000 series. It's a heavy tractor, and 540 or 600's are kind of narrow on a 7.5 ton tractor + the weight of the implements front and back :)
Here in my country no Tractor ever has big/wide wheel. I guess it heavily depens on the soil if you need them. I love how they look. More Variaty is always nice to have.
Is the icon isobus ready as well? Could it run section control for sprayer, fert spinner, drill etc? That screen certainly is an improvement from the looks of it
That's a cracker looks really great tractor luxury indeed....... Still doesn't sound as good as the TW still my favourite tractor but got to give it to the fast track its nibbling at the TW a bit now 😁😁😁
Think i'll stick to old school moving a lever or two and using a clutch pedal and a big gear lever to change a gear, mind my tractor has got datatronic but i've only got 21 acres 😁
would be nice to se4e a walk around and show how much tool storage it has, what its like on def and diesel usage i.e. how long the tank full lasts, also what the sound system, cup holders, cubby holes, cooler and other inside creture comferts are like and how they work
I haven't done a specific walk round purely because apart from the new control layout everything else is the same and I have covered it all before in previous videos.
Hi george great review, love the fastrac. Random question though... whats the soundtrack called you used at the start. It's perfect for one of my projects haha. Thanks :)
Like all systems i suspect you have to run around the outer edge of the field once and it will register the shape of the field, then just save it for the future.
Nice one sir.... looks like a computer on wheels. Hope it doesn't need updates every week 😆. How's the black paint on it fairing? Iv noticed a lot of the new diggers have issues with rust at under 100 hrs on some panels. Hope it's not on the fastrac paint line to.. 😬 stay safe sir. Ps. They need to offer you a 50% discount at this rate especially for that intro it was better than there own .
I guess with that being a demo machine it comes well specked, all those extras come with a hefty price tag. Watch wardys weekly waffle with his new 8RX drilling & see what tech can really do
George taking it to a whole new level with the cinematography
Lovely Machine, would be good to see a 260/280hp model at some stage. Great video 👍
Major step-up for the Fastrac here! You need to trade one of the T7's for one of these!
wow that looks good. Great to see you back in a 4220. Please forget to give it back as we need more videos like this !
I love the start of this vid mate, no intro needed, just that very powerful from excitement chuckle says it all haha. Love it
The general camera work... drone work... mix and edit on this is taking it to the next level George. Beautifully done sir! That JCB is quite the bit of kit and all.
Cheers Robert 👍
Will you get mucka to have a look George ? It's always enjoyable to hear both your opinions on new stuff.
Maybe a TP special ?
Excellent, was hoping you’d get your hands on one of these. I’d love to see someone compare the icon to the new Fendt 724
Great Video, and hopefully a great tractor! thanks for sharing
Thanks George for the video. New stuff is always good to try out.
Mighty stuff Liz and George, a fine machine, great demo review👌👍🙂
Excellent review George. Covered everything very clearly 😁
Great video again George. Beautiful machine keep up the great videos. 😊
Great video George nice bit of kit 👍👍👍

Beautiful ,looking tractor,you can get alot of work done with that,George.Enjoy it

That’s no reflection on you George- we know you love JCB, great review 👍
Class video. George. Class tractor too.🇮🇪🌟
Nice One George Thanks again
Grest vid, George 👍You've always been an advocate of these great, innovative machines - 3220, 7270, 8250, 4220. You've tried 'em all!
Fascinating video George level of technology in that brings it up into the realms of autonomous tractors 👍
Cracking review George 👌🏻
Brilliant George, your best by far....
The intro is fantastic George. Actually thought it was an official JCB promo film at first. Have rewatched it about 6 times now.
Cheers PB👍
Very nice. I’m impressed with the previous generation. Been in one approx 6 weeks on a 16 ton Bailey trailer carting Potatoes. Not done any draft with it yet. Love it.
Well done George back where you belong. Awesome machine.,
👍😀😀😀😀😀
What a MINT machine,George!
Would fit you well on the farm!
Hallo george Nice Film from the new fastrac icon. You are a very good cool farmer
Got to be the best vid yet , ICON is a game changer . Had a go at highland show this year & the bank manager ran for the hills 🏴🚜😄👍🏻
A tremendous review of the Fastrac George , you drove it like you programmed it or stole it . Great video George 👍🔩🚜
Yes George love seeing that happy face and amazing I love JCB hopefully new toy for the future
What a machine George. And also the flat lift didn't break it...🤣
very very nice JCB 👍👍
George what a great video
Explain very well bit different to my 2135 with all gadgets to make it easier to drive may have to leave Custard Cream’s at home. Keep up the good work family farm’s backbone of British agriculture.
Finally! The video we’ve all been waiting for. It’s what it should’ve been from launch in 2014
great review george
Best of British there George.
Great tractor!
What a machine love it
What a great office to work in
That laugh at the beginning of the video 😄😎
What you need George is a system that does all the work for you, a bunk in the back of the cab, and 'teasmade' to wake you up with a nice drink when it's finished... 😁
Brilliant review on the the JCB icon tractor keep up the great work
Cheers Luke 👍
@@GeorgeSaunders 👍👍
re bonjour George et Liz une très belle vidéo, il et bien le nouveau jcb et avec le GPS 😍👍👍👍
Fantastic video and unbiased review, the JCB 4220Icon is a thing of beauty but just imagine the improvements with a Saunders customization.
How does the next driver work out which button is assigned to which service?
@@michaelminers2612haven't driven this, but usually there is some kind of profiles/save settings stuff.
That's some piece of kit, I'd have one over my car 😂👍
Looks mint George! Worth saying though that our Fendt Gen 6 has got all the same features on its screen and I think my neighbours new JD 6185r does as well, but good to see JCB keeping up with the herd.
I agree Daniel, they've finally caught up. But the other manufacturers have offered it for a long time 👍
wow 😮 i forgot what an amazing day that was 🥰
That look and laugh at the start 😂😂
Very impressive, can't imagine it'll be to long before they drive themselves and you can keep a watch from the farm office
Cracking video George,be nice to have 260 hp and 34 inch rims,shame it only has one years warranty and no finance deals as standard nowadays.
I guess me and mucker are the same. I want the fwd and reverse pwr shuttle on the left column. I want the gear selector on my right thumb and everything is right in the world 😅 case puma 👍kubota m108x 👍 m9540 👍now the other case farmall it has the selector on the left side of the seat no power shuttle and the shifters on the right side of the seat for speed but its still a great tractor and I have run it for so many years I can shift and shuttle just as fast as the other tractors for the most part.

Nice bit of kit n good vid G. Just need the £150k or whatever they are now 😂
Looks like someone a happy boy wondered how long before you got your hands on the new fastrac had one few weeks ago on demo right power house pulls our larrington no problem fully loaded
She’s lovely george awesome videography. Still want you to review a Q series Valtra if you can.
keep it up mate
Liz was like me when I first had a go with auto steer🤯😂 great video George what a machine
That was the first time I had ever driven a tractor with autosteer!
Weird isn’t it made me chuckle
The amount of technology in that machine, how long would it have taken in product development to get it to that final outcome ? If that is what is available today, I wonder what will be getting thought of today in product development that is going to be in future fastracs. Excellent video 👍
That's a great piece of kit! Looks like JCB have come up trumps again!

Here in my country no Tractor ever has big/wide wheel. I guess it heavily depens on the soil if you need them. I love how they look. More Variaty is always nice to have.
Sisu engine, Fendt transmission, smart touch screen. Looks amazing.
Thats the slowest i have ever seen for implement like this ;D. Nice Tractor.
Is the icon isobus ready as well? Could it run section control for sprayer, fert spinner, drill etc? That screen certainly is an improvement from the looks of it
Fabulous🚜💯👌
That's a cracker looks really great tractor luxury indeed....... Still doesn't sound as good as the TW still my favourite tractor but got to give it to the fast track its nibbling at the TW a bit now 😁😁😁
this buddy seat looks comfy, next try a Valtra Q Series?
Have they put a camera on the hitch yet, i have seen a few that have been installed by the user
Think i'll stick to old school moving a lever or two and using a clutch pedal and a big gear lever to change a gear, mind my tractor has got datatronic but i've only got 21 acres 😁
One sexy beast. The JCB 🤣🤣. Shame you never put it to something that might make it strain and cough 👍👍
would be nice to se4e a walk around and show how much tool storage it has, what its like on def and diesel usage i.e. how long the tank full lasts, also what the sound system, cup holders, cubby holes, cooler and other inside creture comferts are like and how they work

Wow it make my 1135 look prehistoric George, any news on yours
Nice👌
Great vid . Fastrac is a Icon with all that tec what are you doing ??? just admiring the view and covering the foot brake HARR-HARR
So uncluttered as well. Great visability.
I can't see anything I don't like either other than side windscreen wipers on the doors.
Hi george great review, love the fastrac. Random question though... whats the soundtrack called you used at the start. It's perfect for one of my projects haha. Thanks :)
Hi Lucas, cheers mate 👍. If you go on audiojungle and search for dark hip-hop beat 👌
I don't know how I knew this was coming out 🤪
Psychic 😂
Used one of the original 165/65, many years ago, they have evolved into something else, or though the old ones were great.
Great tractor and video George. One question, how does the GPS/guidance know the true shape of the field? Cheers!
When you do the headland or perimeter of the field, the GPS records what you have done, so you can get an accurate size of the field 👍
Like all systems i suspect you have to run around the outer edge of the field once and it will register the shape of the field, then just save it for the future.
@@GeorgeSaunders Cheers young man!
@@Rx37Legacy Thanks!
That kinda a chisel plough with a Cambridge roller on the back?
Is there lower spec models of this as some people don't want there cabs filled with that much TEC. Cool machine tho
Quick steer should be available on all makes of tractor.
Nice one sir.... looks like a computer on wheels. Hope it doesn't need updates every week 😆. How's the black paint on it fairing? Iv noticed a lot of the new diggers have issues with rust at under 100 hrs on some panels. Hope it's not on the fastrac paint line to.. 😬 stay safe sir. Ps. They need to offer you a 50% discount at this rate especially for that intro it was better than there own .
Completely unbiased.... But I can't blame you.
George Liam here from Ireland would you ever buy a 40 to 20
I guess with that being a demo machine it comes well specked, all those extras come with a hefty price tag. Watch wardys weekly waffle with his new 8RX drilling & see what tech can really do
When it starts pulsing drop the speed back a tad, it can get dam annoying lol, jd 6215R also does the same
Very nice George can you make one pay if LIz says go for one But you have to sell all your other toys What no seat massager!!!
A very long way from the old grey Fergie. An impressive machine but at what cost?
This is going to be your new traktor
How did you manage to get your hands on that and keep it up your sleeve! Lol I bet you gave Liz the keys to hand over when it has to go back!
You've the luckiest man
Aw tune!!
Last autumn, i could choose between 828 vario and 4220 at same price, i picked 828. 4220 is just too light for field works.
That's amazing.sounds like the best option. Would they be more than 150 thousand pounds plus vat to buy straight ? Or a bit less?
She,s a beauty.
weapon!!
