Swithed from 727 to glide prior to last season. Trans has 1.98 first gear. Not calm out of the hole. Slightly more consistent. Don,t have a lot of runs, but great piece. Costs way more money than 727. I ran 727 for years. Glide reacts quicker on pro tree. I'm at 2750 lbs. If I had to do it over for the money I would stick with the 727.
