I don't think Pete was directing his comments towards you, Tom! Your "Inspirational words of Harvest Wisdom" at least contain some facts and ideas, unlike one particular "Deere lover" on this forum. I, too enjoy this forum; - I wished it existed many years ago when I purchased my N6. I have found more ideas on this forum to help me MAXIMIZE,..er (oops, Deere trademark) achieve maximum performance from my N6, and I look forward to any comments one may have pertaining to the C62 which I just ordered. I run silver and green side-by-side (I also have a 9600) and can vouch for some of the attributes Gleaner enjoys over Deere, may of which you've commented on!
