Think it will match 2 S780’s, 2 12row corn heads, and 2 645FD 45’ drapers? If so I may be interested.

Performance wise, I've heard that the X9 will top your 780's. For the headers, yes, it will match up with them.

I’m almost considering holding you to that...Demo?
Either a 16 row Capello or Deere 716C header.

I would love to do that, but I'm going to need one of your demos to come back before I can send you out anymore.

The Maxxum can go back on the same truck that brings it.
And the 2660VT is at Callen, apparently the neighboring BTO is taking a fancy to it. (Also he asked me to ask if he could demo it)
The X9 is going to have to do good to make me part with my S780’s as mathematically they should out perform it, but having one driver and carting for one combine is worth something, but sunflowers (don’t worry this won’t see them) are highly flammable so having redundancy there (along with I can’t push any more Sunflower capacity through a X9) is in favor of the S780’s.
Who knows I may trade combines to 2 new S780’s.

And you also can get your 8RX 410.
Now just to find time to play...

Don't mean to be the high pressure salesman here, but the sale has ended and Deere will only let me offer this price for so long. So are you thinking you're going to buy or no?

Sorry I think I'll bail on buying, but definitely looking forward to seeing the demo performance once I get into the next day on that save. Who knows I may lose a S780 or 2.

No problem, if you have demo hours left you can keep it until they're done.

Demo returned, 5.1hrs on the clock. Power washed her, had half a tank of fuel as my Thundercreek was empty.
Will try to remember to upload a screenshot tomorrow/today.

Pretty high capacity, bad part is it takes a 9570R and Elmers Haulmaster 2000 to keep up.
Oh and is somewhere around 1mil... lol

Well it certainly is a high price tag, but by that review, it could potentially pay for itself in reduced working time with higher capacities. Less unload time means more time your employees are harvesting. Also with lower runtime, you'll save on fuel and maintenance costs!
So if you farm a lot of hectares/acreage, this machine could be well worth your investment. Contact the sales team for more info or to arrange a demo on your farm.

I will say this, I probably would buy this (and maybe a smaller combine) rather than my 2 S780's if I was doing it again, but at this point the hours and depreciation on my S780's make that much less attractive. Here she is before she got hauled off.  |
