Help, Used John Deer 9780 cts any good?

On my search for replacement combine harvester, I’ve come across a 2010 John Deer 9780 .
Been a NH man all my life, what’s the John Deer combine like?

Over complicated, not the most reliable, won’t cut beans, under powered, sieve area not big enough. Should I go on:scratchhead:, NH or Class if it where my money?
Did you have one? Sound like bitter experience? Are these and all later Deere's CAN-BUS? I know that early CTS had some issues in this regard but not sure about later ones?

Never owned one (luckily) worked on plenty and neighbours still have one (my 560tt walks away from it). Had to do some major repairs to it I’ve the years.
Pretty much everything is can-bus now.
