Hi I origionally learned on a 4 stick machine I switched over to 2 lever controls later and can run either very well. I found there are a lot of joy stick guys who have trouble with 4 sticks but every guy who learned on a 4 stick machine has no trouble running either. I agree with what you said about the comfort of the 4 stick over the two. The big advantage I have found is that with the 4 stick machine you can operate two levers with one hand but you can't do that with a two stick machine where this comes in handy is when you are digging a ditch you can push yourself ahead useing crowd and the boom controls with on hand freeing up the other hand on the steering wheel keeping the machine straight impossible with a two lever machine. So for all you young guys who think us old timers who prefer a 4 lever machine are just set in our ways and don't want to change. This is from someone who can run either machine very well. so if you can't run a 4 lever mschine don't knock it
