Strengths The M7040 has a powerful engine and is very quiet.It starts fast even in subzero weather .The shuttle is great for loader work and very smooth. It takes little time to take off and put the loader back on. But, I really like the powerful engine and how quiet it is.

Weaknesses Probably need more weight in the rear. Fluid in the rear tires would do the job. Shifting into third gear is a little stiff.

Overall An excellent tractor. Never knew driving a tractor could be so easy and fun with power to spare.

Strengths Air conditioning is the best. Get the cab This is like a Lexus in tractors. Love the wet shuttle great for front loader work

Weaknesses wish it had more than one set of rear hydraulics standard

Overall This is by far the best tractor we have ever had, we have owned many John Deers and Case tractors but this one is the easiest to use by far and alot cheaper than the other guys.
