A friend of mine has two A.C. tractors which I have driven several times. One is a 7060, the other a 7040. The 40 has powershift and will attempt to eject you from the seat to the hood if you depress the clutch pedal all the way to the floor while going forward. I don't know if all powershifts were this way or if his tractor has a problem. His 60 has a power director transmission and it is hard to get in gear. Again it may be a problem specific to his machine.
The cabs are the most uncomfortable of any cabbed tractor I have ever been in. Washing either of the two lower right windows from inside the cab is nearly impossible without a squeegee on a two foot long stick. The steering wheel cannot be moved to a position for me to get into the tractor easily. I will admit I am not a small feller though.
His are both diesels and the fuel shut-off works backwards to any other diesel I have run.
I have never driven a White, but have been in a few and the cabs are far superior to the A.C.'s. I do have quite alot of seat time on a couple Olivers, a 1550 gas and a 1750 diesel. Neither had a cab and both were a pleasure to operate.
It is only MY opinion, but I would run from the orange and jump in the silver colored one.

As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
