A work vehicle includes: an engine; a plurality of drive wheels driven by the engine; and an operation controller executes first drive force control that brakes a slipping drive wheel out of the plurality of drive wheels and executes second drive force control that reduces output of the engine in accordance with the slip ratio of the slipping drive wheel during execution of the first drive force control.

Work vehicle and control method for work vehicle

A rollover predictor judgment device for a combination vehicle includes a lateral acceleration sensor, a yaw rate sensor, an articulate angle sensor, and a judgment device in a form of a retarder controller. The judgment device judges that the combination vehicle is in a rollover predictor status when a first lateral acceleration calculated based on a detection value of the lateral acceleration sensor is a first threshold or more or when a second lateral acceleration calculated based on a detection value of the yaw rate sensor and a detection value of the articulate angle sensor is a second threshold or more.

Rollover predictor judgment device of combination vehicle and combination vehicle

A work vehicle including a transmission that transmits power of an engine to wheels at a plurality of different transmission gear ratios, the work vehicle traveling while maintaining a targeted speed by controlling a degree of opening of an accelerator, brakes, and the transmission, wherein the work vehicle includes a controller which inhibits change in the transmission gear ratio of the transmission when the transmission shifts up before lapse of a first predetermined time after the transmission shifts down while the vehicle is running downhill and then before a second predetermined time elapses, the transmission shifts down while the vehicle is running downhill.
