The way john deere has treated farmers with the maintenance of their equipment is disgusting.
Yup, comes with being spoiled
Not just farmers. My neighbor has a John Deere riding mower and can't do a damned thing himself for service aside from adding fuel and oil. EVERY OTHER THING needs to be done by a JD technician, and they do so poorly, he has work done on the damned thing at least three time each grass growing season.
Right to Repair!

I have purchased 6 tractors and only the first one was JD. I’ve been boycotting them for years.

Retirees who have difficulty covering their basic needs are often those who couldn't save enough money during their working years. Retirement decisions greatly impact outcomes. Although my parents both spent the same number of years in civil service, my mom invested through a wealth manager, while my dad used a 401(k).
Many people overlook the importance of advisors until emotional decisions lead to financial setbacks. I remember a few summers ago, during my lengthy divorce, when I needed substantial support to keep my business running. I researched and found a highly qualified licensed advisor.
I don’t think i need a finance advisor. I can manage my own finances and investments. I don’t want to pay someone to tell me what to do with my hard earned cash.
I disagree. A financial advisor can also provide objective and unbiased advice, especially during emotional or stressful times. They can help you stay on track and avoid making impulsive decisions that could harm your financial future.
How did you choose a reliable financial advisor? How can you determine if they are trustworthy and competent?
I began working with Aaron Morgan Bell, a great advisor. I was very fortunate to find him, especially after my marriage crisis, and I now consider him a good friend.
John Deere- isn't that the company that won;t allow farmers to repair their own equipment any more?
They lost in court...so under the Biden administration now farmers can
I'm sort of supportive of Deere on that issue - partially - the majority of farmers don't want to repair their warrantied JD equipment, they want pronto service and don't want to pay to haul the heavy equipment to the nearest dealer for a minor issue. The training of independent mobile service techs must be expanded.
If you own a Tesla you won't have access to the diagnostics equipment - it's too costly.
@@timothykeith1367Most people don’t own a Tesla as a major component of their business. Also, just because the majority don’t want to spare the effort does not mean that the minority should be forced to follow suit.

We sent John Deere a Dear John letter the moment they prevented Farmers from repairing our own equipment. I will never buy another one of their products.

Which brand would you go to? All I know they are all as complicated to repair as JD maybe except some smaller Chinese but is that what you want.
@@tomm5936Bud, it isn't the complicated part, it's the Right to Repair part. It's the fact a farmer may have a $1m combine he isn't allowed to modify. He can't bypass the GPS and use another, better software because JD sued other software makers to not mess with JD equipment. It's also a problem of no longer being able to buy FULL factory service manuals or have access to component level repair info on electronics. That's the problem. Many brands allow you to self service or use gps software of choice. Not JD
@@workingcountry1776 OK I understand. Still which other brand does it differently. Can you repair a Case as an example.
Exactly!
Stop Buying John Deere
At this point you may as well buy Chinese crap , still better than what the US companies are making

NAFTA ended in 2020.
This is courtesy of USMCA which is trump trade deal, so blame it on trump, he enabled the move with his trade deal.
NAFTA does not exist. USMCA, negotiated by Trump, has been in affect for many years. What was true in 1992 is no longer true. 2024 is the fault of TRumps amazing negotiation skills and fully under his responsibility.

You don't own a modern John Deere. Do not buy their products.
How many JDs do you own ? We have 11 . The "repair" BS is just that ... BS . One can repair any tractor they desire ... Just that if you made modifications to the electronic module of a 6r110 to pull like a 6r140 ... Then your warranty is nulled and if the unit gets to return to a JD dealer it will be set back to ORIGINAL status of 110hp . I own a 6r110 and a 6r130 ...almost the same machine BUT ... The fuel electronic module is set differently and torque curves are not remotely the same ... Price tag difference : 30K . If I were to seek a fly by night geek to "tweek" my 6r110 to 130 specs ... It would cost me about 1K $ ...
Do you understand now ? People who claim JD is against farmers repairing their units ... are lying . They are people that did NOT pay for what they claim to have . Electronic modules and settings are PART of the sale also . You could simply have bought a 6r130 if you desired 143 hp instead of 110 . Questions ... I can help ... I am not a JD employee , just an Upstate Farmer .
As per the move to Mexico ... This is crass business . I do not approve of this move . Later Sunset and ... Tough times ahead for America I fear :(
@@niniv2706 So what you're saying is all those people that complain about it are full of it? All of them, they just don't understand.
You have 11 pieces, you're one of the bigger customers, let me also guess you buy them new from the dealer, you know people there for a long time etc.
Now be the guy that buys them used, has 2, and always gets outside repairs done, or does it himself. That person is treated in a "we'll get to you when we get to you", while they rush out to service your stuff. If you read fine print on your purchase agreement you own the hardware, you are LEASING the software, the stuff that runs around in the ECU, you don't own it, JD can brick it any moment (just like they did in Ukraine when Russians took tractors). As it stands today, no one is allowed to have a computer scanner, (except JD service personnel) That means, if the engine throws a code, it can shut down the machine or put it in limp mode, no one but JD service has the computer to hook up to it and find out what's up. Why? They say because people will use it to bypass emissions devices....... that's being done no matter, they know it, all code is breakable, they know it, it's just an excuse. (Very few people care to bump up HP on so expensive equipment, (that's what the dealer told you isn't it? lol) and on warranty on top of it, and today, there is plenty of power in everything. Official stand from JD is the emissions thing, in front of congress anyways).
Also, it's not just for shenanigans or major stuff. My truck (Cummins) threw a code and derated my truck, would not say why (plenty of display to say it) turned out coolant cap was loose, it could not have said that cooling system press is low, nah, STOP RIGHT THERE AND CALL SERVICE!! because a fricken coolant cap is loose. Also not a big deal unless you're overheating, at the same time. Why derate, why not let know which sensor is tripping? MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY
And this is much more wide spread then just JD, look up Louis Rossman (on you tube) for things your dealer will not tell you.
But no worries, capitalist market fixes itself, there is at least one European tractor company that started setting up in US, full repair rights, fix it however you want to, computer and all. Very nice tractors, absolutely no worse then JD, but I don't know enough about them, I just drive them on and off my trailer.
An old boss of mine had a 300d backhoe. You could fix with a hammer and a piece of wire. I don't know about the new stuff. It is sad to me that things have changed.
@@unclejim1528 - Oh ... I hope you understand my point . :)
And ... No farms are huge where I am located . Land is expensive and I am a grain of sand for our local dealer . 8 of those are series 50 and under ... So basically tractors one can fix with a pair of pliars and a hammer ;)
Later Jim and Farm on good friend . Yeah let me repeat this JD is a crass corp .

And someday people will realize that this is what happens when you give tax breaks to the already rich folks. To the average person, it's pretty obvious where the money is going and why the middle class is in the dirt.

Company I worked for moved to Mexico a couple years ago, because they were going to save so much money on employees. Little did they know they lost 80% of their customers because the product they were making down there was no good. Plus they found out the hard way when the cartel moved in and took a percentage from them to protect the workers. They lasted less than 2 years and they moved production back to the states. Best thing for people to do in this situation is to boycott and not buy there products. Go with something else that's made here in the USA.

JD started it with the *_"We are not giving you the right to repair your own equipment"_*
This dosent Californians because most of us dont have lawns. Becoming China here. Everyone in housing units.

Won’t be buying their equipment next time around.

John Deere is moving to Mexico, Joe should be removed for that alone.
200% tariff on everything they sell.
Agree
Trump will do that Biden won't.. maybe Hunter could get a seat on the board and Biden could pay them to stay
american farmers would end up paying that tarriff, raise their prices and then your prices go up as a result. still want to tarriff them?
Just like the chinese tariff and almost all tariffs the producer does fine and the cost are passed onto the consumer government knows this but the increased taxes is a positive for them.
Unless the consumer has another US made choice that will cause a monopoly on higher prices. Same with Trump tariff and income tax plan for his next presidency. It would bring inflation ro 20%...but only for the working class...the rich and corporations would get a huge tax break
They already make lots of stuff in Mexico and practically all of their castings are done in china so what’s new? Deere sucks!
Higher profits for Wall Street investors means bigger bonuses for executives.
Nuff said.
The self sufficiency of America is being sold to the lowest bidder.
This generation of businessmen have truly screwed our once great country.
That's how the free market works though. 🤷♂️
Folks in other countries do not have the health insurance elephant like the usa does.. that coat alone is often the same as 2 to 5 workers overseas or a few in Mexico.
@@3beltwesty Most other countries have socialized medicine.
@@benstandard Wonder how many pay to do gender swapping and the 100k? costs nd drugs?
There was a coworker I worked with in 1992 with some weird blood problem and the drugs were 3000 a month and the SoCal company paid most all of it. So he was making about 42k as an engineering technician and the money pills were 36K so with the SS taxes and overhead his cost was like 150k; about triple the rate of our Singapore plant. So do the "Most other countries have socialized medicine" pay for giant medical costs?
With my own business Obamacare caused massive insurance cost increases. And for some employees that meant the cost of the insurance was more than their wages.
End NAFTA and all these jobs return.
Given to us by slick willie with support of the unions
It's not NAFTA. It's the world oligarchs
NAFTA ended in 2020 and was replaced by USMCA, by the Trump administration.
Mexico is the largest buyer of US corn. Free trade is a good thing!!

I retired from a hydraulics company in Rockford Illinois that made Deere and Caterpillars hydraulics. They were 70% of our business.
I bought a John dear shovel thinking it was made in the USA it was made in Mexico. Disgusting
Where's you cell phone made? Computer? Dishes? Clothes? You are a ignorant child
A client company of mine with a factory in the USA put "Made in USA" stickers on their products. The employees were all Mexican. Made in USA doesn't mean made by Americans any more.
Falling apart
@@joevarga5982 mexicans can be americans.
think you meant, made in the USA doesn't mean made by white people anymore.
@joevarga5982 ok so go get one of those jobs...the reason? Because Americans won do those jobs.
I have older John Deere equipment from the 1980s and 1990s…the stuff is incredible equipment
LOL 🤣🤣 still using my 1964 Massey almost daily!
They don't make products like that anymore. They can't get you to buy new equipment after 40 years in the field. So now they build junk. Junk gets replaced a lot more often for some reason. LOL
John Deere owes the shareholders, not the employees. Deere needs to lay off more expensive Americans to push my stock price higher. No need to subsidize cushy and expensive Americans doing paperwork.
Another company chased out of the US by the Unions... Imagine having a business and the government coming in and telling you who you have to hire....
That's right. Screw all blue collar workers. Send it all to China replace the rest with migrants.
Lies
Yep, John Deere doesn't have to do business in the USA or put up with Union BS.
Screw the unions. They've become counterproductive and obsolete.
You don't know what you talking about boy.
The cost of manufacturing in US is just too high. You need to pay a lot of insurances and fees to non-manufacturing businesses in order to produce something in US
Add up the $50 an hour benefit package and the lifetime pension. That all goes into the cost of a new piece of equipment. Million dollar combines to harvest crops
Inflation is killing us and company's yet our President seems to do nothing about it.
Obammy’s resident and administration are the cause of inflation! First thing they did was shut down our oil supply.
That's a total lie! Corporate greed is killing us
Politician's never loose a paycheck or benefits
Union busting just results in lower wage jobs, therefore more workers on government assisted food stamps and healthcare. What have the Corporate tax breaks done to incentivise giving back to the society that has made them wealthy? Nothing. Screw John Deere
Not true. He got ice cream and pissed himself.
1000 JOBS
IS A MINISCULE CUT IN DEERE
You were not forced into retirement. Everyone who make a decision on early retirement when offered is cover their self interest. You cannot speak negatively because of NDA in your case.
Our economy is about to have a massive crash
You won't hear a peep about it. They are still building a lot of new cars and trucks . I don't know who's buying them
@@jeffmaggard3694 Cars and trucks ? Sounds like nobody.
@@jeffmaggard3694in my area, they are parked on dealers lots.
If you move out the USA and want to sell it back then you should be penalized by a hefty import tax for coming across the boarder and the money should be sent or giving to all those who worked and got laid off. Corporate America companies are some real ruthless mf
TO SAY THE LEAST
Americans befuddled that corporations might not be their "best" friends. 🤔🤔🤔
Any USA company leaving USA for Mexico or any other overseas area is an easy fix for me. I just will never buy their products again. If they choose to be unamerican and fire american citizens for illegal immigrants than their business is not worth giving any financial support too.
Hate to say this, but manufacturing plants in rural areas are going to continue to close at a rapid pace.
More jobs leaving America. Trump 2024 🇺🇸
MASTER LOCK, WRIGLEYS, BRANCHES OF JOHNSON & JOHNSON, MANY MORE???!!!
No need to go to Mexico.Biden brought them here..
It's MORE THAN JOBS, in many cases it's the age old processes that leave also, when that leaves, the original folks who knew the processes are replaced with those who don't have experiences with the processes and WHY they were developed
