Combines New New Holland Combine

All I know is that it is really one of the new CNH combines. The chassis you see will be the same one used on all three. There will be two New Hollands; one twin rotor, and one conventional, and there will be one CaseIH painted red with a single rotor. All three have already been in the field all this year. The second one pictured with the flex head is the European model. You guys should feel important because they were just shown to my buddy who is a product specialist for Case_New Holland at a meeting two weeks ago.

I think a JD STS is goofy.

The European model you refer to is the "conventional" version of the New Holland! New Holland had single and twin rotor prototypes operating for quite some time already; - before the CaseIH_New Holland merger was considered. In fact, New Holland intended on offering a single rotor combine before the merger.

The conventional isn't just the Euopean model. It is

The conventional combine you see within the prototype photo's is just that, a prototype. The machine you're referring to is the TX66 or TX68 I believe and, yes, it sure puts a Deere to a challenge. I'm from southwestern Ontario and the New Holland conventionals haven't been too popular here; - I'm not sure why!

New Holland had the prototypes made for the Twin Rotor (which was run this year in NA) and the conventional(which was run in Europe) before they bought out Case_IH. They TR was shown to dealers in Chicago back in early October. I don't know the exact specs but the rotors are much bigger than before. It is supposed to put anything CAT_Class can put in the field to shame. Of course the problem with NH TR machine has never been threshing ability but in overloading the chaffer in heavy pummage crops like soybeans. I've seen a TR86 run a 20' head at just under 10 MPH and never think about choking up but the losses off the chaffer at that speed were terrible. Anyway the engineers are still working the designs for the RED single rotor version. They are building it on the same platform. I have heard they did have one in the field this fall but it will most likely have to run another year before they make it into a production model.

looks like a badass VW Bug.

If you are partial to yellow combines, which I think is fair to assume due to your nickname, I think that you should remember that you are on the John Deere show, not that new holland show that has a very low number of messages,( probably because it centers around a combine which has yet to become widespread in use with custom cutters and farmers) so go back to that boring site and try to think of something to talk about. Also, I think you are crazy if you think that that horribly UGlY machine that looks like it came out of some space age movie is not goofy, and that the John Deere STS is!

If you would like to talk about new holland combine's come over to new holland show. We don't have as many problems as some other combines have so we do not have to post as much. You need to accept change and lighten up. I did not mean to insult you if you like an STS.

conventional is a machine with straw walkers and others are TF TR with rotors TF means twin flow
