Have a HD45R with integrated transport. I love it! 15 minutes and I'm converted. No transport trailer to worry about. I pull it behind my s790. You need to be careful with your auger coming into contact with the header reel in transport but it's manageable by swinging auger out a bit on turns.
From someone who moved from JD combines to Claas 3 years ago I have never looked back, don’t miss the JD service team rubbing there hands when see me, saying to each other how much money can we charge this man today! 😂
Forget Claas, only the John Deere S series or single rotor combine harvesters are suitable for mike. the S series are solid, they are able to repair them themselves.
You won´t be able to feed a Claas enough to get a good threshing quality. He could be running Trions on a 45 foot header and it wouldn´t be enough mass going through.
Agriculture is always a gamble, but having a much better crop than last year is a plus. Its fun to watch even an average crop coming in after many years of drought.
I love seeing harvest videos from you Mike!!!! It’s a whole lot different there then where I farm lol. Hope you and your family are doing well and God bless.
Hi from Australia... Mike you gotta get a demo Claas 9800 out there.... Our farm ran JD's for along time, my husband changed over to Claas a few years ago and has never regretted his decision... Basically we run everything in Claas from tractors, harvesters, hay equipment..😊 Stay safe...
Very bad advice. I would never own a Class as it is built with a culture that produced a madman like Hitler. Keep our countries people employed and keep the money in our country.
Mike as you know it sucks not getting what you expect when you cut a check. The dealers who make deals with you know dang well who you are. So im surprised they haven't delivered your combines field ready. Jd are living on there name , and ive seen more than a few green farms in my area turn a different green and red and a few yellows too.
When I started watching you Mike you all had the Fendts definitely seemed like you were better off then feels like you’re struggling more sense you switched away from them. But I’m not there you know way about what you’re doing than I do. Awesome content I like watching the process and seems so innocent
I’m having the same problem with my folding corn head, the tapping the screen to fold and unfold is the only way I can get it to fold. Or do a calibration for the wings, then it works fine. Was told it’s a software update issue
Hi Mike. Just a thought! Maybe you could have your lentils painted various colours and sell them as "Smarties" Maybe that would bring you more money. 😀
Jesus mike u got some patients for that dealer.good job your weather is unsettled like britian or ireland.must dealership here would offer u back up mahines until they have your machine sorted.i just think mike if your having trouble with these machines now,what gona let alot more hours on them.😮
There is nothing more peaceful than running the combine. When its not breaking 😂 We couldnt move our concaves either!! And we did the same thing. Kept running. It ended up being a bad computer on our S770. We are upgrading to either a S780 or Claas 8600. Cant decide. Or just to have two combines for wheat harvest.
Very bad advice. I would never own a Class as it is built with a culture that produced a madman like Hitler. Keep our countries people employed and keep the money in our country.
Gotta love John Deere. They have all of these awesome ideas and they try copying everyone and then they completely suck at it. How’s the technology going. Planting and spraying was absolutely horrible for us. Updates never worked until the end of the season. Might as well go back in black

Typical Pattison Ag, take something in for a green-light and it comes back with more problems than it had going in. They can’t even put bolts in the correct way.
It's these young mechanics who can't do anything without a computer! Every dealer is having trouble getting competent mechanics! It's terrible when the dealer sends a mechanic out, and u have to tell him how to do something !
Mike please never say that header is just like a Mcdon again,believe me it is not the Mcdon header floats on the ground with its triple reel and the ground moves it where as hydraulis and sensors move the deere. The Mcdon only has 2 sensors.
If the dealer couldn't deliver the new combines/headers, could you have walked away from the deal and kept your old ones? Your 6 series combines were working.
Hey mike. Are there any conbines thst you havent or will not run? Youve run a kot ofbdifferent brands of equipment.. which is your favorite Loved rhe "trudeau whest" comment. Spot on!

@ronrobbins1338. On the plus side he works hard himself operating. This year he seems to have spent a lot more on chemicals and fertiliser hoping for a better crop which has not materialised to justify the inputs. The North farm has yielded better so should have made money there. He has a wife who when not breeding works with him. I doubt buying second hand he gets the good finance deals that you can get buying n 15:56 15:56 ew equipment. This year grain prices are really low so yield up and price down. He does not seem to waste money on toys. Everything is farm related . He has good workers. Finally he must make money from RUclips. He also does Patreon which may also give him money. He does not seem to do endorsements like the other RUclipsrs whose partners do not feed them so they have to endorse instant meals.
A gleaner? They aren’t a big enough machine for one thing and comes down to dealer support if you don’t have a dealer around why on earth would you run one?

Hello from Moosomin,Saskatchewan,Canada you have great videos and great at communicating. Thanks for sharing.
Amazes me how color hooked people are on JD Green. Went from JD to NH CR 5 years ago and they never miss a beat.

@@lafermedu14etlagriculteurs29you haven’t got a clue how Mike works
I went from Claas to deere 3 years ago and will never look back lol. It's amazing how differently things work for different farms
Never should have let the 690’s go before the 7’s where in the yard.
Change for a Claas, or the new NH CR11, North amerce is rusted onto JD, there are equally good machines available.
Hard to till what Mike thinks about, his combine dealer!?! 😂 Have a safe harvest, Mike!
Nice looking combine Mike
"I don't think I'm going to spend that with this crop".......every farmer should memorize that line.
Agriculture is always a gamble, but having a much better crop than last year is a plus. Its fun to watch even an average crop coming in after many years of drought.
always glad to see mike in motion. Great info
I love seeing harvest videos from you Mike!!!! It’s a whole lot different there then where I farm lol. Hope you and your family are doing well and God bless.
Feel the frustration. Got one of our combines Aug 12th and the other on the 16th. And both were there several months.
Gleaner. Gets it done, with less weight, and simpler design. Must have a reliable dealer, regardless of brand.
Need to see a yellow combine out there..
You need to go over to New Holland or Claas combines soon! 😆

Looking forward to you trading off for 250/260 series Case combines.

Seems those Fendts you hated so much were actually doing a much better job than these green ones.

Shouldn't you consider duck feet add ons for your reels to help with yields with crops Mike...
When you're ready to make the switch to red, let me know. I have the resources ready to get you set.
Why would he want to have twice the mechanical issues that he already has?
@@Ole_CornPop You're right, you can't have mechanical issues if the equipment isn't delivered in the first place.

How do you determine who in the family purchases an equipment item and what land it gets used on ?
Yeah, how does that work??? I'm on a family farm and all my equipment is used for free.......worn out, then told I need to fix it... ..
Think they run it all seperate they have thier own land, equipment and guys.
They all own their own land and machines
Try the New Holland if there is a good dealer for you.
Best of luck with the combines
How many hours are on them before you start harvest
Dumb question, but are the lentils you're harvesting also the... seeds that get planted next year?
If the dealer couldn't deliver the new combines/headers, could you have walked away from the deal and kept your old ones? Your 6 series combines were working.
The 6 series combines were probably already sold. and in the new owners field working and not likely to come back.
I am confused why you didnt just trade them all for a couple X9s. Like when you got all brand new fendts
What town were you close by. Looked like an older grain elevator in the back.
Looks like ole Shaunavon? Not sure though

Is there no New Holland dealers around you? Surely be a better bet than the JD’s??

Sounds like a crappie dealer service if the combines weren't field ready and are having issues with minutes of operations.

Have a hard time figuring out how you can have low yields every year and still buy a crazy amount of equipment each year!
