We were lucky enough to get to demo a John Deere X9 1100 with the new John Deere HD50F 50ft header Combine Info: www.deere.com/... Header Info: www.deere.com/...
Awesome video! Do you think the x9 is a big difference from the 790s? Almost not worth it spending over a million dollars just for one when you can get almost 2, 7 series combine for the same price! Keep up the great work!
Yes its a big difference from Deeres single rotor machines! but not much difference than our new holland CR9.90, in the same work time it combined 18,000bu and our machines did 14,000bu each with 35ft headers, keep in mind our combines are class 9 and the x9 is a class 11 machine, the list price for the combine and the header is 1.25m CAD there would probably be some discounts on that but its still quite high!
@@tombexy 2 rotors are better than one! I have heard that the new claas 8900 is better than the x9, for a lot cheaper! Not sure if it the 8900 but something like that.
Operator clearly does not need a 50' head. He only needs a 45' ft head, if you can't fill the whole head up why buy a bigger head? Need to practice combining with a smaller head and use the whole width before stepping up to something bigger.
farmed all my life first combine i drove was a 45 john deere with 12 ft header cant understand for the live of me why a man would run the reel that fast
@@deannelson9565 the guy just got in the machine theres a lot to learn in that cab, especially coming from a new holland! its always better take a little less than miss some!
