Hello - First post here........... I'm considering a MX5400 with a cab and have a few questions. My local dealer has what I'm looking for but the unit is still in the crate.

a. Can anyone that owns one verify the overall height is 92.7 inches?
b. Can anyone that owns one tell me how wide the canopy is at the top, widest part?

Thanks for any help, I need to make sure this will fit under my door header of 95.5".

Welcome to the forum! I don't have a MX5400 so I can't answer all your questions but I'm surprised that they don't offer A/C on a cabbed tractor, if that is indeed true.

Thank You.... I spoke to the dealer and they said the AC is standard now.

After considering and looking at a dozen tractors I purchased one of these (MX5400) this afternoon! Now the wait starts for a few components

I see your handle so maybe you're a Ford Fan. Here's 2 Fords in the garage, and the GT350 on the track. Its converted to a drag car, twin turbo.
Tom - beautiful cars!

Several years ago we had your cars’ Great-great uncle in the car museum I’m associated with.

It was sweet. Your pictures made me think of it.

Being a Chevy guy, I’m still stuck on the matching set of 1969 SS. Impala is a 427 Automatic.

Cool. Same here.

Shouldn’t leave MOPAR out……

You’re new here, but our good friend Skeets will often salivate over these kinds of cars…

By the way, welcome to OTT! :cool:

Thanks for the welcome. I'm a Mopar fan too. I had a Demon and sold it after a couple of years. It was valuable enough not to completely ruin it was heavy modifications. I have a Hellcat that has been turned into a full time drag car.

Well - I had a bit of a problem with my dealer. The MX5400 HST-C that I purchased ended up being a gear shift transmission that they had in stock, the sale person thought it was a HST and didn't find out until they pulled it out of the crate. So a refund is happening, they can't source a HST anywhere nearby. The good news is that I found a MX6000 HST-C not that far away and not that much more than the MX5400 was.

Yeah, the difference between the MX6000 open station and cabbed models is significant, but only about $1,600 comparing the MX5400 to the MX6000 cabbed models. Not sure why anyone would by an MX5400 over an MX6000 unless they absolutely wanted a manual transmission.
