I don't buy the hype about newer crane cabs being safer

I ran a 1988 Link-Belt for 12 years and switched to a 2022 Liebherr last spring. The new cab has better visibility but the seat vibrates worse and the joystick tension feels inconsistent. Has anyone else noticed older cabs actually feel more solid to operate?

Read somewhere that new cab insulation actually amplifies low frequency vibrations.

Happens with everything lately. Builders keep trying to fix one thing and end up making another worse. Same with those new soundproof windows they keep pushing.
