    Deere did have a small bounty but deere also gave their customers the same deal or better and if you're in the multiple-well that's a different game fun with numbers.

    Yes, some local Managers piss guys off.

        That's true for most machines. That is not far from reality when you have million dollar machines. An A.I. diagnostic system.

          True, not sure why, because it's not the combine grading your grain....its a set of eyes and attitude at an elevator.

                This is pretty common with many dealers in the effort to get guys to change colors. In one sense it is surprising how many combines were sold this post harvest. We didn't as we are running fairly new to us machines now. It doesn't bother me to see guys trade up and there is no need for anyone to "take it personal" or be irritated where some feel its not too expensive of a deal. I know a guy that seems to think that it reflects on his management style to fix. He is a good fixer and seemingly takes delight in seeing some one who steps out and buys new or expands have financial issues. Like a lot of guys we discovered that if one waits too long to trade and your combine depreciates out it a one hell of price difference. I admit we are never done paying for a combine but we have far less breakdowns if we run low houred machines. For many once you get on either the trade fairly often route or the fix route it can be hard to change the management route.

                  Just a small farm, one 9870, 10 years use. From accounting software and a good estimate of fuel.

                  Cash value difference, plus fuel cost, plus repairs = $18.37 per acre over 10 years.

                  Ironic isn't it after all my calculations answer is the year Deere started?

                    Heard quite a few X9’s got rocked this year. Take one on the sides, as usual goes in the rocktrap. If it makes its way to the center where the cevron pattern is to split the crop, nothing stopping it from going thru the whole combine.
