Since you all love machinery...
2000 John Deere 7210, dynoed @ 110 PTO Horsepower, used mostly for feeding.
20 forward and 20 reverse speeds, 5 groups of 4 powershift gears and
clutchless direction selection.

1997 New Holland 8160, Rated at 90 PTO horsepower, spends most time in front
of the feed mixer. 18 forward, 6 reverse, 3 groups of 6 powershift geasrs
and fully clutchless, but still has a clutch pedal for precision work.

2003 John Deere 7710, Raded at 135 PTO Horsepower, does fieldwork, and other
things. Infinitely Variable Transmission (CVT), capable of any speed between
0.1 KM/H to 40KM/H, transmission and engine are computer controlled to allow
optimal fuel efficiency. Basically set the speed, and the computer picks an
optimal engine speed and transmission ratio for the current work(300 times
per second) Doesn`t need a clutch to be driven but still has one for
precision work. Iain thinks these are way too complicated...
