[QUOTE="nxy, post: 8390474, member: 466"] Yes as been said above maize is hard on the internals of a combine but there is also the damage caused to the chassis and drivelines. In a bad year here combining maize is impossible without tracks or 4wd. Most contractors have at least one often older machine for when the conditions get bad. Modern big combines can get very very stuck and can take two or three 250Hp tractors to pull them out and you can be lucky if the only damage is a caved in fan housing and pulling the lower body panels off.
