My dad has a Hiniker cab on his 1206 with no AC. Having spent about 4000 hrs. on that tractor, I can say that once it hits about 85 degrees you can have all of the windows open and the fan running at full blast and you can still roast a hog in that cab if you're doing fieldwork.

At least the ICB cab door doesn't open foreward like the '86 series.
