Video of a New Claas Lexion 8800 at Thomsen Jung Farms Ontario for 2019 Harvest. There are a couple clips from the Farm Progress Show of an 8600 and 8800 doing corn during the demo day
That thing is eating the wheat! I've never seen a combine going 7mph in 80 bushel wheat. My s780 was barely going 3mph and the stubble was green after a rain 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Honestly I've been around these machines for almost 10 years and I have never seen anything like these new models! He is one of the best operators around here and knows how to push a machine, but it just kept taking it.
That is an interesting story... This customer had the convio at the start of wheat however the drill planted over a stump hidden in the grass along the headlands. The head caught the stump and bent the head back. He called and told me this and I spent the whole day driving 6 hours to where my demo Macdon was to get him back going and finish his wheat.
