The 9620 and 9570 have the Cummins. They are alright. Torque curve isn't as nice as the JD engine. But they (JD engine) kept blowing head gaskets when the tried to up the hp so for now the cummins run the two biggest ones.

If you buy any of these tractors keep in mind a couple of things. There are two large PIP's out on the two big ones (620, 570) in the first couple production years. One is a big deal. The transmission has a major recall and requires a tear down to replace faulty input shafts/gears. Make sure they're done before the recall period is over. Another that is a bigger job but not fatal to the operation is a noise PIP in the hydraulics. When running a continuous hydraulic motor (air drill fan, etc) it has an excessive amount of cab noise. The PIP is to address it and requires a fair amount of disassembly.

I don’t think weight is an issue. We have 2 and pull large drills in big hills with very little trouble.
What would your slip be pulling those drills on level ground. On flat ground here slip seems to be as high as the wheeled.

Well I all can speak is from my experience. Most 13.5s have had head gaskets done around here. They seem to be trying to get too much HP for too little displacement? Idk maybe not, don't care. As far as slip goes it's just BS red/green chest thumping. We run both on 40% hills and they are roughly the same. Red is a little better on fuel, green uses less DEF. The best red quad was arguably the 535 (with a pre emission QSX 15 ironically). Versatile has so presence here basically so nothing to compare to there. It could be awesome, but no parts or service makes it a non issue. All in all they all pull, I have no brand loyalty (as we run multiple colors). Lot's of folks tend to get too emotional about equipment. Life is too short for that.
Sorry if it sounded like I didn't believe you. I just want to hear guys real world experience. I haven't read on here of guys actually doing head gaskets until now. Apparently it's a problem. Maybe I've been under a rock. I'm not emotionally invested in this.
My point was that the head gasket issues are not necessarily related to hp but just an issue.
I could show you my work order. And 5 others last year.
I wasn't aware of head gasket issue with these motors. If a guy says he has had issue on here I believe it. My point was that the engine wouldn't meet emissions therefore Deere couldn't use it therefore used the Cummins.
Are the head gasket issues more common on the final tier 4 engines?

With the current state of things does anyone care to guess on this springs RB regina or Stoon sales what the RXs will bring? Also has anyone looked at these in person on their lot? Im thinking with exchange rate now that 400k canadian would be a pretty good deal in us dollars for a 1300hr machine
