This is what the biggest energy boom going on 20 years straight starting in the Bakken will do to an economy. Plus the Bank of North Dakota is owned by the State of North Dakota and not Wall Street or, ahem..."the 'mericans of Washington DC" ahem..

I suppose he’d crap his overalls.

You mean like green red and white?

A tip : you can watch series on flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.

@Gary Alden yup, I've been watching on Flixzone for since november myself :D

@Gary Alden yup, I've been using Flixzone for years myself =)

Claas never owned Cat but they had a deal Cat sold the Claas combines in America under their name as Class had not foothold in America who are generally rather brand loyal especially to green and yellow while Claas sold the Cat tracked tractors under their colours and name. When Cat pulled out of the ag sector selling Challenger to Agco Claas still used the yellow and kinda black livery but badged them Claas until they established their presence there now swapping to their colour scheme they they have used outside of the Americas for a long time while Agco have scrapped the Challenger marque in Europe and badge the tractors now under the Fendt marque which is a larger more established brand in Europe. Brand, image and loyalty are everything just like Apple and Google. They may cost a heck of a lot more than an iPhone but there are farms who will buy and trade in tractors not necessarily because they need to but because their brand has brought out a new model and it is slightly different which are where the companies make their money.

@@SlipShodBob Sorry, I expressed myself wrongly... I meant the CAT combines, not all of CAT, of course... But the thing with the color scheme still stands. If I remember correct, CLAAS started to sell green combines in the US under the CLAAS name but the sales were very low because as you said Americans are brand specific. Then they changed the color scheme to CAT and the sales went up and up in the US. Thanks for correcting me!

I can say that CAT and Claas status was cooperation. First it began with Commandor 228 CS two track model in 1990-91, this one kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r7NhY7dy2q-vj4U.html (I found only model, not a picture. It was just a concept. BTW very interesting concept, such as cylinder system on Commandor, especially in corn...). After that in mid 90s came first Challenger tractor (it was built in Winnipeg, Ford cab etc... look at this kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o8WXhpeLps3Sh6s.htmlm40s ). Claas came with Lexion (under CAT brand) on US market around 1997 (as straw walker combines derivates of Lexion...). CAT withdrawn business in 2003 (interesting fact, in 2003 after that "every" new Lexion combine had CAT engine in Europe too after that, Evolution series of 400, or 500 series, so cooperation continued... it has changed with 600 model, comeback of Mercedes Benz engine to top class) Challenger tractors went under Agco ( of course, there was Claas Challenger MT735 prototype... google it ;) ). Around 2003-2008 Claas bought Renault Agriculture division. Xerion tractors, that is a different storyline... Big Tractor Power has good stories about CAT, Challenger and Claas. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eLuig7Oe1MXWo6c.html or kzfaq.info?search_query=big+tractor+power+history+of+claas What a mess story. :) English is not my native language, but I have issues to mark it ALL info together also in my native speaking. :D . :) BTW: I really do not where was exactly built first CAT tracks tractors such as those one konedata.net/traktorit/caterpillar-challenger/caterpillar-challenger-65-75/. But great machines, all mechanics as engine or gearbox or tracks were made under CAT brand... I remember that some big farms have it and did a great job here in 1990s (24hrs shifts etc...)

I wonder about that too (lose corn out from the back) Did you get the moisture temp of the corn and how much bushels can get an acre, Mike.

Yes same machine Brian ran.

I was just wondering the same

Dan Lowery, We farm near Manito, IL and run a Claas Lexion 560R. There aren’t many of them around here locally but a few. All John Deere and Case IH for our neighbors. We also have a Challenger MT745 and Cat 85E and a matching black and yellow former Altom Transport semi truck that all match so we are a little bummed to see the color change to Claas colors.

@@Chris-jr1sh I was just down at the Manito pheasant Habitat hunting on 11/16/19.

Dan Lowery, across from the tree farm on the Manito blacktop possibly?

you can deactivate them individually, Ryan from How Farms Works showed it in one of his last videos

A Claas Lexion 750.

They will soon own the land.

size for size yup, headers are a bit more money. biggest Claas to biggest JD? not even close, The big Claas with header hits the field for a million bucks. Ca.

LIX 59 no doubt

Well thanks for liking the video but I think the combine looks pretty awesome myself.

LIX 59 maybe not the best looks, but it’s considered the best combine brand worldwide
