Disc a field that has been moldboard plowed utilizing a tractor that has NF and manual steering and you will easily see the difference.
Rollo-matic rides much smoother and the steering wheel is much less likely to break your thumbs when you put them where you should not.
While few people conventional plow anymore I do have a true story that some may find interesting: I was using my Farmall h this spring pulling a culti-packer to use as an improvised field roller to smooth a field that I had subsoiled in the fall. My Farmall was riding much rougher than I liked (even with the optional Monroe seat)and the steering was jerking too. Switched to the JD A with rollo-matic and the ride improved dramatically (even with the no suspension battery box seat on the JD). Also my A has power steering so the wheel jerking was solved too.
Would have preferred to use the h as it uses less fuel, but not going to punish my body to do it.
FWIW: I have both a Farmall h and a Farmall M. I have given thought to see what would be involved to bolt a JD rollo-matic on them both.
