Agco's The King of The Hill Again

[SASKFARMER3]

Yes in its hay day Massey was way ahead starting with the 760 and 860s then the big problems happened and crash.

Not saying I'm sold till i see it in action but the Class is not a combine that works well either. Throw a pan under as your harvesting and then throw under the new Deere and i was surprised at the Results. Not in Class favour.

Funny some wonder why we use the Massey big swathers. Real easy I swath 2 12 hr days and one 8 and finally you bring fuel. DEF is min fill on first field top up maybe once.

Buy two Deere get three Massey. Math makes sense.

Are you talking the MacDon green swathers or those 4895 pieces of junk.

Did they ever build their own grain head for that thing or only ever stuck a MoneyBee on it so far ahead that you couldn't see over the back of the header to see the cutterbar when the header was on the ground cutting peas or lentils.... then those cab pillars!!!

Binthere , was that the class 9?
Most likely at Swistons ?
If it was , those boys will put it through the paces for sure.

I would imagine Full Line out of Stoon will be the only one to Demo it , maybe Ag World .

Agworld is flat out selling lexion

Kick ass paint job!

I'll let other review, for a few years, before ??

Ya I will wait 2-3 years as well , our last experience with a new Massey model was frustrating and very costly.

Black Agco in my area. Hope they used thicker steel and put all the bolts in this one.

Which model?

Black Agco in my area. Hope they used thicker steel and put all the bolts in this one.

In my experience the agco combines are heavy duty when compared to CNH.

Price???

[Oliver88]

Price???

LOL

Phone Agco and report back to us.

The 9795 and 9895 were well built , the 9540's we had were not to say the least .
If all the upgrades were done I am sure they are fine , but like iceman pointed out that would be after 40 pages of updates .
Like most new models of anything there always seems to be weak spots not thoroughly thought out .

[rockpile]

Lol! The price won't be released until November but they did say it will be expensive. Claims to have the biggest everything and that must include cost of purchase.

New gen. Class 10

Good to know, sounds like some bad customer management by a salesman too if they didn't ensure the updates were done for a customer. I prefer to buy older machinery at auctions where there is a full farm dispersal lineup so likely not an issue for us.
