Command Pro

[Wisey]

Hi all we are currently on with buying a John Deere 6155R ultimate edition, with autopwr and was wondering if anyone has any experience with the command pro and if it is worth the 3.5k price tag we are a dairy and arable farm thanks.

Only had short demo but yeah it was far and away the best JD user experience I have had (not a JD fan btw). Fendt still miles ahead imo.

Thanks for the reply, and fendt seems to be the one to beat!

We have had a 175r autoquad out and a 155r autopwr with the stick was nothing wrong with it but I wanted to try the command pro after hearing some good reviews about it but still yet to try it.

Got command pro on 155r ultimate 19 build love it come off auto quads before next will have command pro 100%! Save presets for each implement to have everything exactly where you want it!! P.s leather steering wheel extra £50 it’s a must!!

Round here it seems to be if you like the original autopower you don't like the command pro but if you're used to other vario transmissions or are coming from a standard gearbox you'll like it. Nothing wrong with the original setup you can work everything you need to with one hand and I find a lot easier to use as it's simpler for multiple users

This is our first autopwr and it is mainly my tractor but my uncle will use it for drilling baling and spraying ideally I wanted the command pro but I think it has been taken off the spec sheet now to make it that bit cheaper which considering will probably keep the tractor 10 year seems pointless to me.

Demo it for yourselves I personally can't stand it but someone else will love it

I’ve not even seen a command pro yet but imo there is nothing wrong with the original setup so won’t be changing anytime soon unless it doesn’t become a option,I always find it funny that whenever I take over from someone driving a fendt on hauling silage or maize they all have the trailers plumbed in to operate on the small crossgate lever instead of the main joystick yet they rave about having everything on the joystick

Wisey I have a 2019 145 and 155 ultimate autopwr with command pro. It’s way ahead of the single lever. Cost 2500 euros per tractor extra so I’d work on that but don’t do without it. I’d spec second screen for GPS if I were doing it again. Leather interior makes it a pleasent place to work.

Thanks for the reply I will try to convince my farther and my uncle it's worth while then!

The 6250 I demo’d had it, thought it was ok but had too many buttons, 13 from memory?, much prefer the Fendt set up, not sure I’d pay extra for it tbh

If I remember correctly the 230 and 250 have it as standard I think.

totally agree I got extended monitor and it’s really nice to have especially if running isobus implement for example a fert spreader

I tried it and wasn’t to keen. Like being able to change direction from the stick but would prefer if it was still on a slide for speeding up and slowing down etc. Maybe I’m just stuck in my ways

I was told the joystick itself is only hundreds Rather than thousands, it’s when you go to ultimate to get the joystick all the other stuff that comes standard on Ultimate, but is an option on premium! Fancy mirrors premium light package fridge so on and so on!

Well it has took 3.5k of the price of the tractor just by removing the command pro so I'm not sure tbh.

 

[Claasman]

What sort of money in 155 ultimate?

Is it still a Ultimate they are quoting now? Or maybe a way of dropping the price to a un inflated level without raising suspicion of having one's leg lifted.
