CR970 vs STS9860

[raymondb]

Has anyone seen these two combines performing in fields of HRS Wheat, barley and canola? Which combine is better and why. I have read up on both and listened to dealers but have not seen both combines performing in the same field. I am considering exchanging a CTSII and a TR98 for one of these hoping that one would perform better and faster than the two. Any feedback would be really appreciated.

Two other good web sites to get feedback are:

and Machinery Talk at

Thanks Seedsman--I have gone through the two sites you noted. These are interesting but I could not find anything comparing these two combines

Has anyone any experience with the two combines and would like to share these experiences. Both dealers in my area are good so Dealer service is not an issue. Company service is someting I know little about except what I read in the sited Seedsman mentioned.
