Ask SASKFARMER about the Fendt. He thinks its a pretty hot combine.

Does SaskFendt3 have a fleet of charcoal combines now?

For a million bucks you could have youngs or south country sitting right in your field for 10 seasons.

You can throw a lot of wrenches for a million bucks.

Likely could get a couple fairly fresh 10 dot 90Z's and free fuel for O maybe three years.
Deere says 100t an hour.
Flash back 6 years. A lower powered 10.90 did 797 tonnes in 8 hours with a maximum rate of 135 t/h

The New John Holland! Twin rotors no less. Belt drives!

In the Ghetto you couldn't drive fast enough to keep that hungry combine full. Hell, 850's in third gear variable speed maxed out and it's still running half empty!

Surely they could have built in MORE belt drives! A nightmare of pipes/hoses on left side of engine. How are the rotors driven? Two variable belts???? Two right angle gearboxes??? What is operating weight? double a 9600 I am certain. How is the 13.6L going to take the stress of this tank?

I don't think so but he did demo one of those "char"coal combines.

Love those youtube videos from the northern states of old N6's going around corners @ 7 mph. Now that's performance!

The only good thing about a Gleaner is the fast road gear !

agco fendts are complete junk !

We have tried em all except the new Fendt
If doing wheat , Gleaner still hands down winner in its weight class ... not even close .
Excellent in peas / lentils as well but struggle in canola .
They all have good / bad points ... all of them

Iwish I had a dollar for every bushel we took off with those junkie Gleaners. They were beauties to us.

Agreed, but even the best combine can be a disaster because of the ass in the seat.
