      Not saying I'm sold till i see it in action but the Class is not a combine that works well either. Throw a pan under as your harvesting and then throw under the new Deere and i was surprised at the Results. Not in Class favour.

      Funny some wonder why we use the Massey big swathers. Real easy I swath 2 12 hr days and one 8 and finally you bring fuel. DEF is min fill on first field top up maybe once.

      Buy two Deere get three Massey. Math makes sense.

        If they were smart , but that's debatable, they would head to the Area west of the Battleford's through Lloyd and keep heading west after that . There are some big crops in that area . Would be a great test. It will be tough slugging in heavy straw , also big canola crops. That is where this thing should be put to the test.

          Massey was the common combine around here in the 70s and 80s....then deere slowly started taking over after the Massey financial ****up. ...

          I find if they pick the right guys to buy one or two and they have a positive outcome ....sheeple will follow. .....

            It was making its rounds in the krydor area north of Saskatoon. Not bad.

                Are you talking the MacDon green swathers or those 4895 pieces of junk.

                Did they ever build their own grain head for that thing or only ever stuck a MoneyBee on it so far ahead that you couldn't see over the back of the header to see the cutterbar when the header was on the ground cutting peas or lentils.... then those cab pillars!!!

                  Binthere , was that the class 9?
                  Most likely at Swistons ?
                  If it was , those boys will put it through the paces for sure.
