Most hated, most laughed at, best designed combine in the world. We love ours. Capacity, reliability, simplicity, efficiency, affordability. Keep your other combine, I'll run a Gleaner.
How are these machines not big enough? They have tons of capacity and put more money in the owners pocket than any other machine. Physical size doesn't always win
@@daehlerfarms So is said about the L series, but he does have a point with wanting more capacity, especially compared to others anymore. Efficiency doesn't matter if your crop gets totaled while waiting for the machine to get to it.
@J-1410 crop can be totaled while its still growing too, thats farming. Maybe large farmer could let a smaller farm be able to grow if they ran more efficient machines, wouldn't have to have as many acrse to have same return. But everyone is so dam greedy, they think they got to have it all.
@@daehlerfarms Not all of us are in Iowa, here on the high plains your wheat average is 30 bushel, soybeans run 5, yes 5, corn is under 100 and has no market, barley runs under 30 and no longer has a market, except for seed. Canola has a market-4 hours away, if they're not full and if your swaths didn't blow away. You can't live on an 80 here, you never could, even in 1912. They homesteaded it in sections, later multiple sections. 8 hours east you had the Bonanza farms, so today's western farms of similar size are nothing new. No amount of "small farms" will ever happen here again unless wheat goes over $20 and fertilizer stays put. Our diesel is 75 cents more than Iowa on average and our dry fertilizer is almost double. Anhydrous is dead, has been for a while due to safety and cost, liquid never existed here. So, with declining small grains prices, increasing diesel and fertilizer, it means smaller profits, which means you have to cover more ground, its not a choice, especially at since all equipment is insanely priced anymore. Yes Gleaners are efficient, but they're small in capacity anymore compared to everyone else. We can't find people to run trucks at any price, even the oil fields can't, how are you going to get more to run more machines?
Streator, IL farmer featured.....I was born in Streator! Great job Gleaner!

@@J-1410 an S98 with a 45ft draper is hardly a small combine lol.
