Closed the books on 2021 harvest tonight. Corn is in the bin, came off drier than normal for here at 23%. Very very good yield, best ever for our farm.

We put up a dryer bin last fall and everything worked as it should - stirrator, distributor, fan.

Not today. Started the stirrator and walked away. Oops, it didn't start, I discovered a couple of hours later. Rookie mistake - didn't climb the bin and check after hitting the start button.

So there's a belt replacement and pipe wrench job awaits me first thing when daylight returns....

So I tell myself the go-to line when mechanical troubles visit - "We've overcome greater obstacles than this."

So what’s the verdict S/F ?
Is the new transmission improved over the older Deere quad ?

Most bullet proof trans ever made.

It shifts better and when it lugs down it can pull wish we had it on something bigger but got into the mud and you cant lift the kelly so you have to crawl out and it got out without any problems. Steps are nice won't break the window like on Versatile in the wind. I like weights in the front and rear bogies on the ground so 16 more weights. The cab is a new design wish it had a little more room. behind the seat to store as the sprayer has. Lots of leg rests for long days. Mirrors are different and all LED lights.

The Truck will be picking it up today I'm thinking but its raining so it would have sat anyway.

Time will tell , it’s a pre production model
Most likely will be very good , will see after 10,000 hrs then maybe statements can be made .

Is the trans as smooth as a Red one yet?

Finished anhydrous today. gone up 550/t since we booked ours in early sept.

It’s amazing what two scheduled “preventative maintenance” shutdowns do to the price of NH3.
