I have owned a 7650 for 3 years. Have almost 2000 hrs on it. It is true that it has a rough ride. This really shows up when braking. The coil springs compress as you slow down. After you stop the spring tension is released sending you skyward. Why they chose not to install shock absorbers is beyond comprehension. We have had some issues with the can bus system that controls the boom folds. It is a pain if you spray a field, only to find you no longer can fold your booms in. The cruise control works part time only. Agco says this is a Perkins engine issue so nothing gets done. Other than that it has been a good machine. The engine and transmission work good and the boom has held up very well. My machine does not have the front wheel assist. I really haven't missed that option but we are not climbing super steep hills. Agco has updated the front spindles, updated the torque converter and many other small items. Make sure you have these updates if you are looking at a used machine.
