Combines 9600 or CTS

If you are just going to combine wheat than I would recommend considering a CTS II. We went from a 9600 to a CTS II and it was a nice improvement. We are able to get a much cleaner and better quality sample with the CTS than the 9600. We also gained a lot of capacity in barley and a little more capacity in wheat compared to the 9600. We run a JD 936D draper header. The CTS was underpowered but the CTS II had the same hp as the 9610 along with the 10 series improvements. The CTS II also used a 9600 front axle. Ours is a small grains machine. I don't know were you farm but there is no rice grown where I am at so I have never seen a CTS Rice machine. But I have a brochure and the only thing I can find different is the spike tooth cylinder and concave on the rice machine.
