Hope you liked the 6215R, we've got a couple of them and love 'em to bits. Don't look silly when pulling a 14T trailer about, just the right size and have the power to do heavy ground work. Our harvest 2022 was going great until the header auger decided to crack down the middle! Right was we were just starting the wheat!! Anyway, hope to have that back soon so we can crack on. Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing your 1055 again, reminds me of our old 1075 we had in the 90s. Would love to have one of those again and kit it out with AGOpenGPS and other modern features!
It's a John Deere, what's not to like. Did seem enormous after spending too much time in our 6230! Oh dear 👎 I had a stone break a retractable finger a few years ago. Before I could shut it down it punched its way round and almost cut the auger in half. Bit of a pig to get off, got it plated up but it's now got a slight wobble on it! Got her fired up yesterday afternoon and hit 2000 hours in some oats(not overly worked for a '86!). Grain dry but straw not really fit. Did think about fitting the GPS but would need to fit a power supply from the battery (not a huge job but there's not enough hours in the day + on the look out for something a little bit wider with a straw chopper... And maybe even functioning air con!) Hope you get back up and running soon. Happy harvesting! 👍
@@jimsfarming7792 We've got a 6230 Premium too, yeah it is a bit odd jumping between the two, know which one I prefer though. Should have the header back in an hour so will be at it again soon, probably until late! Well, hope to see the 1055 soon, have a good harvest Jimbo!
