    Best combines built by Deere. Simple design easy to switch from crop to crop without pulling concave’s. Most 9500 were 235 horsepower the earlier ones were 190.

      Our 9500 is a corn special, extended wear and the big 9600 engine from factory. Runs a newer 893 no problem. Wierd to watch people drive so slow in corn with a six row.

    I got to ride in a 9500 cutting wheat back in 2001. It was my first time in a combine. Then in 2007 I rode along in a Gleaner R62 cutting soy. Both were awesome machines and experiences I'll never forget.

    Crazy how today's combines make even the 9600 back then look puny. Mainly the bushel capacity and horsepower rating. Price of 9600 seems laughable compared to today's machines to. Great video 🙂

    Great video! We had a guy custom cut for us one year that had a new 9400 when they came out, I got to ride a while with him and as soon as we got started I thought that machine was amazing! Big jump from what we had at the time which was down at the time. These machines have a soft spot in me even though I don't usually lean "green".

    In corn the biggest upgrades to these are the rare side screens. Taking the bottom sieve out or just opening it up completely and closing the top to the width of just a kernel and dropping the fan speed a touch. Bigger tires in the back to make the corn run up hill over the chaffer. We ran a 2007 893 on ours and ran only 1.7 mph slower than a 9770 with the same head. The feederhouse made crazy noises in corn over 240bu...and keeping the clean grain elevator chain new was important in good crops.

    I had a 9500 that I ran a 6 for corn head and a 20 ft flex head. When I sold it it had slightly over 10,100 engine hours and almost 7000 seperator hours. It is still running with the current owner. Original engine with only the head being removed and replaced with a new gasket. Of course most everything else other than trans/hydro and straw walkers had been redone.
