@@hammerslammer3006 planned obsolescence is annoying. I do believe they could engineer something indestructible but when you tell a customer they don't own what they're buying from you and can't repair it on their own then I have a major problem. Especially when John Deere first established itself as a company on the exact opposite side of the spectrum...
Im a Claas guy, my current harvester is a Lexion 480 which already does the job very comfortably and easy, and i just can't imagine what it must feel like operating this piece of art. Props to the John Deere engineers for making this incredible machine, this is going to change the industry.
Y'all talking about Zach getting one. I want to see Mike Mitchell, way up in Saskatchewan get one, stress test it and then give us his honest, unbiased, opinion.
It's not as simple as most people think. There's more than mechanical issues that affect its utility, the software is the problem with just letting anyone under the hood.
Would be nice to hear a post from John Deere explaining 'honestly' why they backed out of letting Mike Mitchell demo one as they had promised ! They wont of course
Give it to Mike Mitchell!!! Backing out last minute on a planned demo is just plain sad! Big 50k acre potential buyer and you back out because you are scared of an honest review.
Obviously somthing is up,pretty sure they don't think it will keep up to everyone else's class 9s. It might be bigger than the deere 9s but everyone else's not so much. Looks like another deere copy,try,fail...
I see Mother Deere backed out on taking a combine to Mike Mitchell to demo. As a life long JD customer that is disappointing. Combine must not be ready for a honest evaluation.
Excellent presentation. At age 70, and having experienced grain harvesting from threshing machines, open and under powered combines, later with combined with no air conditioning cabs, and with more power, to seeing what is available today is heavenly amazing. I would love to be a young farmer today. Enjoy.
So let me get this straight: I can buy said combine for x amount. Then you want to charge me an extra $100k at least(probably way more) and I don’t “own” the machine and can’t repair it myself. Yet people will still buy this? I can’t believe it tbh.
I am sure he will get one, he gets all the breaks in life, but at 4 dollar a bushel for wheat which is 1970's prices, who can afford this. wheat and all the grains should be 3-4 times higher than the current 1970's prices and nobody or anyone is doing anything about the low prices. Would a doctor or a government worker or athletic work for 1970 wages? Hell No... A combine in 1970 cost about 15000. These will probably run 500000 with no header ... Farming is a joke and the city people make bank and eat cheap food. There is about 2 cents of wheat in a loaf of bread. Just think if the farmer got 12 dollar a bushel for wheat then the bread would go up 4 more cents.
It’s pretty funny, John Deere does not want anyone to compare their new X9 combine to a Fendt. Mike Mitchell was going to try it out, but John Deere pulled his demo. I think John Deere is scared of Fendt combines.
Yes, NH has had twin rotors since the 70’s. I think JD has delayed offering a twin rotor design because they are more expensive to manufacture. They’ve been making single rotor machines and selling them for as much or more as the NH twin rotor machines.
@@icenbryse5190 the Claas Hybrid machines are a lot like the new holland TF series that was around before it, TF was a newholland superconventional with two rotors where the walkers would be. I find it funny the TF was dropped in favor of the improved north american twinrotor (CR), because the TF was not great in corn. The Claas on the other hand is a monster in corn. How different would NH be if they had of improved TF to take corn like a Claas?
It would be so cool to see a Black Farmer anywhere in the world especially in the United States Demo one of these, It would also be nice to see a Black Farmer in one of the commercials.
Deer pulled out will not let him get 1 on demo absolutely out off order especially when they promised he would get 1 on demo that guy spend big £££££££ on new machinery
It won't stick with the claas... it might give the 2388 a run since they left the pump alone on theres. Deere doesn't think it will stick with the ideal machines...
i would hate to have one on my farm we have pipes feeding water to cattle trough's all over the farm and some times they leak i once went over a leaky pipe and the top soil look dry as hell like normal ended up getting a combine stuck lucky i stopped in time before i drove to far in to the mud adn had emptied the grain bin just before. how would an Autonomus tractor see wet ground? and if its ended up in a situation like i did could it stop in time before getting too bogged could it even tell the difference from a tonne of mud to some surface mud say from rain or melted snow that may cause the tractor to slip a little if it mistakes that slip for it getting bogged and stops then that down time forcing the farmer to go out see if it is bogged or not. the there the imperilment its self what if and air hose on a seeder get clogged what can it do about it? and spraying i once hit a bump in the tractor it didn't seam big at all barley moved but our sprayer has much smaller tires making it sway to much and smacking the boom in to the ground and bending it as a classic Australian farmer i carefully backed in to a tree to bend the boom back how would an Autonomus tractor handle that even my old man who has bean farming far long then me end up doing the same thing as me and bent the other boom.
Beautiful combine I believe this is JD's best combine today it will be a HUGE seller for JD it has the important improvements harvesters want "WELL DONE JD".
one suggestion to improve this machine sell in India to use wastage for animal feed, so it can not be wasted, because Indian farmers want wastage material for feeding animals
New holland has had twin rotors for years and case has had the adjustable down spout for years. Does jd ever have original ideas anymore or do they just copy other brands and tweak the design a little bit?
@Mike Maes Yet the MX magnum basically stole the entire cab from the 8000 series (control armrest, corner post display, electronic controls)... And the entire design of the front frame for tighter row crop turning
lol i can just imagine the bill for this....doesnt look good for the extremely low crop prices and still seeing machinery go up INSANELY high including parts, this is why all us small guys cant get out of the machines we have. Honestly how much can change? why is it eveyrtime a piece of machinery comes out, the percent change in anything is so much higher or better than the last? does it never end? crops can only be so clean off the field.
wow.. with embarrassing stats like that im surprised they said the numbers.. pretty much every competitor has better performance then this lol.. also my 13 year old claas can harvest about at this capacity
Ahhhhhh. Millenial mode. At least get MN Millenial Farmer in this. Maybe even Cole the Cornstar or Welker farms?? Gota get them Case boys switched over
It will depreciate $100,000 per year first 5 years. Then no one will want it because anyone who can justify this size of combine doesn't want one with 1500 hours.
RIGHT TO REPAIR! I would and will never buy a Deere till I can work on my own equipment so Deere keep coming out with new stuff cause your competition is making money off your ideas and your stupid policies. CLAAS is the way to go.
We also designed the shoe augers with a longer and wider front step pan. Maybe change “designed” to “replaced”. Finally got rid of the shoe augers and achieved an “active grain pan”. I’m extremely shocked the radiator isn’t “lay flat” above the engine with a 4 link rear axle.
Deere sure is taking their time releasing info on these machines. Won’t put it head to head with fendt ideal 9. Wondering if this thing is just a big green waste of money and Deere doesn’t want to admit it yet?
So is John Deere atleast going to take me on a nice date before screwing me on the price. It'll take a lifetime to pay one of these off. Just another reason for them to tack on an extra zero. Things probably a POS and will spend more time in the shop then the field.
I thought the same thing when I seen the sive system. There exactly identical! Deere copped Case and now there copping New Holland 50 years old design. There is no innovation at John Deere to be different, just to be better at there competitors mistakes.
I work at this amazing company and see this machine with my own eyes is a pleasure. This combine is going to make a huge difference in the market. Nothing runs like a deere.
@@ReadingAreaRailfan where did I say I don't like advertisers? I am both curious of a new machine & quite aware of marketing ploys which are designed to make one feel discontent.
I can take a 20 year old 2388 and get more done. I’ve seen first hand what happens with these new machines. They break down and sit a week because nobody knows how to fix them. Deere sent a 790 on tracks out to test in rice a couple of years ago and the transmission went into park and it left the farm on a lowboy trailer and went back to the factory because Deere couldn’t figure out what was wrong with it. Electronics and technology will always have problems that the old machines will never have.
Maybe in 15years ill have one.. oh wait Pattison closed our John Deere store in Foam Lake, Saskatchewan....sooo we just bought a case 435 tractor??? Never thought id see the day..they killed the dealer/farmer relationship... we started going red with a case 4420 sprayer 5 years ago. Everyone is going case or versitile around here
Dear John Deere- your channel promoting this video has 208,000 subs, and in a week this video has gotten 289,000 views. Zach, over at Millennial Farmer, has over 500,000 subs, and the video he posted YESTERDAY already has over 220,000 views. As many here have already mentioned, if you put an X9 with one of the new 50-foot headers on it, in his yard asap you will get more advertising value out of it than every RU-vid video you post plus probably 100% of your advertising budget for the product launch. Just saying... 🙂 PS- Mike Mitchell up in Saskatchewan deserves an honorable mention too- he's got 50,000 subs and more acreage than many European countries...
JD stole the twin rotor idea from New Holland. I remember how the JD guys used to make fun of rotaries, then they made fun of NH for having 2 rotors instead of one, and now they copied the idea. JD has never been ahead of the game on anything. Never.
