Thanks for the help boys, might have to go on a road trip this winter since gas is so cheap.

I have used a FF auger for the last 2 seasons. Increased capacity...well I don't drive any faster because a clean cut is important. What the FF auger does do is less shatter because you don't have the bunches come to the middle in front of the flighting and then do the spin around and thresh out the front. Also raising the reel saves beans and you won't have the build up of thrash on the feeder house each day. So I like the setup...Air ReelIJ no experience with it. JWK

I have had no experience with a draper head or an air reel. I bought a 25' full finger 1020 head last summer and used it for the first time this fall on my 2366. I cut over 700 acres of soybeans at about 4 to 4.5 mph and never stopped because of bunching on the platform or stopping to reverse the head. They really work great. Can run the reel much higher with less reel loss.

i was told that the one being released would be silver, and powered by cat for now because sisu does not have a big enough engine for it yet but in the near future it will have it. i also have heard it will be released (or showed in louisville)

How many different engine builder has there been since the glory days of Allis ChalmersIJ It's simple. Find the biggest and best over all engine and STICK WITH THEM FOREVER! Put it in everything you build. Has anyone ever heard of this little upstart engine makerIJ CAT! Maybe they could build one big enough and last 10,000 hours. I am tired of all of this engine swopping.

All you guys who are not familiar with the Sisu engine are in for a nice surprise. Power, reliability, economy are just a few things you're going to like. You'll forget all about Cummins and Cat. I'm not saying they're bad engines, it's just that the Sisu is very good also.
