Like AutoTrac™ Turn Automation, which lets you execute end rows easily and have a stress-free day in the cab. AutoPath™ puts your secondary pass guidance lines where you want them, so you don't have to count rows or harvest a row of shame. With the new G5Plus Display, you'll get 35% more screen space to add additional maps and widgets, 3x faster processing for quicker boot times and clear 1080p HD resolution. It's all easier with the G5Plus.
