You must be the one at the local Deere dealer that set-up the neighbors 3 yr old STS that has been JUNK from day one. Does your Dealer follow an STS from field to field while the owners 2388 does 75% of the workIJ His STS spends more time on the truck or in the shop than in the field. AND I DID READ THE KEYWORD "WORKED"(past tense) for a Deere Dealer. So smart and so good they kept you, RIGHT! SAD when a 20 yr old Gleaner with minor modifications can beat the H out of an STS that is next to new and cost 1_3 as much new(STS) when it was sold new. I have run many brands of combines too, working with neighbors and family and Gleaner is n1 choice and Axial is n2 in over 30 yrs of farming for capacity, simplicity, maintenance ease. Interesting, 2 companies that have failed more than once and still have the top 2 combines(Gleaner Rotary and Axial Flow) in the industry. Deere bad mouthed rotaries(put green blinders and diapers on their customers) for 20 years and finally couldn't beat the rotaries and joined them. And New Holland is the only rotary design company to not go under, "Gleaner" kept Deutz going for 5 yrs, the White rotary became the Massey rotary after Massey scraped their rotary designs, and the Axial Flow is still around with many updates, more than the Gleaner. lets see in 20 years if the STS is as close to the same as the N6 and R62 are in design. Gleaner and IH had it right 20 yrs ago, where has Deere been, trying to train their employees to bad mouth the competition and not design or set-up combines correctly(like the neighbors STS)IJ

Don't you have anything better to doIJ If you hate Gleaners so much stay out of it. There is no reason for this nonsense to be going on as it is.

Its funny you come in here now . If I've done anything wrong I'm sorry or if I hurt anyones feeling but last time I checked I did nothing wrong other than answer questions. I'm sorry if you guys don't like my answers but you get what you ask for. But I see who you take up for. But I guess thats the way it goes, as tbran put it I don't know anything anyway. So why would anybody pay attention to me. As for staying out of itIJ Are you talking about the combine or the arguement. last time I checked I wasn't the one cutting down people, and if your talking about the combine try to keep it out of my way planting beans. By the way your the one up at midnight!

If you really want to know I quit working for the deere dealer and I moved. And I can tell you of absolutly 1 gleaner running in my home area. And its a N series. Oh yeah I haven't seen it in 2 years. But I guess all the farmers around here with 3000 plus acres dont know any better.

There are some big farmers running Gleaners.Having cut over 20,000 acres a year for the past 5 years with 3 Gleaners I know better. The Gleaner will make you more money than any other combine out there! But I guess some people are to proud to run a gleaner even if it affects their bottom line.

How rude and unfair of me. I take back all of my words not all of you have had a chance to drive other colors so thats all you know. I'm not really trying to bash anyone just telling what I have seen in past several years if that is wrong I'm sorry. If I offended anyone I'm sorry, but how come every question is answered with a wise crackIJ
