Don't threat yourself friend. That Iveco is one smooth fuel efficient powerhouse. The only thing that one should worry about, are they going to put the proper kevlar belts on that red machine to take the torque and power of that mighty engine!

How fuel efficient is the Iveco in the TX68 compared to other engines, especially compared to the genesis engines

Here in Europe have a good reputation in power and long life but not in fuel efficiency. The best engine for a combine is the Deutz air cooled engine or the Daymler-Chysler ( Mercedes ). I've a combine with a Deutz air-cooled engine and it have more than 1000 hours without any problem in the engine. It's a 120 hp and it burns 10-12 liters_hour in a corn harvest.

The last new IH combines were produced in 1984. After that, IH became a truck only company. FYI The major ag manufacturers today are Deere, Agco, Case-New-Holland, and Cat. IH continues to make a superb truck, but no combines.
