G8 Super Cruiser
The Super Cruiser is a clean sheet design, while drawing on proven elements from the successful Crop Cruiser range, yet centred around an 8000L main tank. The final product is uncompromising in terms of strength, performance, weight balance, efficiency, stability, visibility, styling, comfort and functionality.
When Goldacres designers and engineers set out to develop the G8 Super Cruiser they knew that a simple cut and shut approach would not deliver the desired results.

The best sprayer in the business deserves the best cabin in its class – welcome to business class
The sprayer is one of the most utilised items of equipment on the farm today. Long hours day after day places plenty of demand on the operator to get the spraying program completed. At times it’s like a second office, where mobile communication means your sprayer becomes your place of business.
The Super Cruiser cabin makes it all possible, with features like the very latest in European styling and finishes. Narrow profile four post frame with external truss Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS), double skinned rear wall and extensive sound deadening provide a strong, yet peaceful uninterrupted view of the job at hand.
Centrally located cabin with suspension and air ride seat help reduce operator fatigue, allowing more hectares to be completed in a day. And simply, the best laid out controls. Read on and find out why the Goldacres Crop Cruiser cabin really is “business class”.
We know that one size does not fit all
Seven way adjustable seat, adjustable side console, adjustable G-Motion™ handle position and adjustable steering column ensure operators of all sizes can find a place to do their best work.
Two’s not a crowd
When the days are long and a bit of company is needed it’s nice to have a proper place for someone to sit. The padded training seat with seatbelt is large and comfortable without hindering the operator’s vision or space. The seat also folds away to reveal a large storage area with optional cooling module for food and drink.
Keep your cool
The Australian summers can be long and hot, but that doesn’t mean you should be. The fully integrated automatic climate controlled air conditioning system with carbon filter allows the operator to set and forget. Strategically placed air ducting ensures air movement is distributed around the cabin. There’s also an overhead cooled storage compartment for a drink bottle.
The high-mounted, centrally positioned cabin gives the operator a bird’s eye view of all corners of the sprayer.
The cabin is mounted high on the chassis, with the bonnet mounted low. This gives an almost completely uninterrupted view from the front window. Visibility through the side and rear windows provides an excellent view of the boom.
The main access platform features longitudinal slots to see through. Curved glass on all four sides with strategically placed narrow profile four post ROPS frame. The hydraulic reservoir with level and temperature gauge, back lit spray and boom hydraulic pressure are clearly visible.
You know when something looks “just right” and the Super Cruiser G8 fits that bill.
The cabin is mounted behind the front axle to give a naturally superior ride due to reduced vertical movement. In addition, the suspended cabin, air seat and five link airbag suspension system give the operator a smooth ride. The main tank is strategically located between the front and rear axles, in conjunction with the boom, cabin and engine drive line positioning delivers a sprayer with an almost perfect 50/50 weight split. This reduces ground compaction by evenly distributing the weight across all four tyres. The result, perfect balance.
Comfortable, adjustable and intuitive

Functions such as: Individual boom wing tilt, dual boom wing tilt, main boom lift/lower, fence line L/R, auto steer cancel/resume, cruise control set/resume and increase/decrease, master spray on/off mean all spraying operations can be done without moving your hand from the G-Motion™ handle.
