Yes, I believe that they are changing the attachment system and the platforms as a whole. When you take heads off and on a lot the present attachment system is somewhat of a pain. The spring-loaded pins invariably get dirt and foreign material in them and do not work good. Not sure how much cab is changing, probably just a new seat like the tractors have. The platforms need much improvement to take advantage of the STS. The wobble box knife drive is antique and gives a lot of trouble with the speeds needed to keep the STS full in wheat. We have been told the new knife is hydrualic suspended with 4 inch sections. AC vents in cab could use some work, displays, especially greenstar could also stand some updating. Buddy seat badly needs updating. Could also use a small refrigerated compartment, perhaps under the buddy seat or immediately behind it. When you spend 1000 hours or more per year in one you can find several things that could be improved. Gear shift lever is in the way and a joke. Still best machine on the market but everything can be improved. Cell phone and two-way radio brackets would also be a nice addition. Easier way to clean the grain tank and back cab windows would help.
