Float mode is pointless. Automatic chip door is pointless. How about focus on cab ergonomics… big machine, tiny cab, no room for a lunch box. No easy service access to arguably the most important driver of production, the machine’s AC blower and condenser. If you can’t service it adequately, it’s usually bricked in about 2000 hours and the whole air box need’s completely removed for adequate service. Also my operators get what we call Tigercat neck. This is caused by a bar inside the lexan windshield that is perfectly placed to obstruct the view of where the rotor is. You either have to slouch to look under it or stretch out to look over it. Also would be awesome to have a remote fueling location so you can fuel from the ground instead of having operators monkeying around on tires. Other than that, these machines are pretty operator proof.
Great job! Couldn't have done/said it better myself!
We love our 720B!
An absolute beast!

Edit. No remote fueling on the 726 that Im usually around.
