New jd 6r

[Serup]

I’m not exactly sure on the spec as it was a phone call as I’m busy with Christmas trees at the moment but I think it would be front links 42 Michelin tyres auto power led lights. £138k I have to go in when I have time to do a exact price.

I had a quote on a 6250R Ultimate edition about 13 month ago. That was the same money. They do go up fast

That........ seems like a lot of money!

I had a quote a month ago for a 195r which was over £140k

A lot happens in 13 months. I had a quote for a 600hr 6215r last year for just over 100k now they want the same money for one with 3800hrs on

I'm sure a 6215 was 145k ish last November when we were pricing I'm surprised the new ones aren't more

For us it works brilliantly, we cover 250+ fields across 5 businesses with upto 6 different staff using machines at the same time, some more experienced than others, having each implements settings saved on the screen ready to go once you've hooked it up saves a lot of time and errors. For the younger guys at harvest to be able to drive into a field they have never been in before, load that field onto the screen, select the pre programmed cultivation or drilling line and crack on with all manholes, telegraph poles, trees and the field boundary mapped on the screen in front of them just makes life simple and they cant cultivate or drill a field the wrong way or forget to record the work or seedrate etc. All the machines can be monitored from the app to see where they are, how they are getting on, fuel levels etc without needing to ring the operator all the time. Its a system that will probably work for some whilst others wont see the need for it as you have said.

Impressive

Everything pretty much has gone up in price. The world is in a cycle of demand outstripping supply so everyone in the supply chain from iron ore through the end user is seeking more to cover their businesses increases. Economics at work

Is it true they did away with powerquad on the new r series. Was told this but dont know if its truth

According to deere website (https://www.deere.co.uk/en/tractors/mid/6r-series/), the 6r150 will only come with autopowr, the 6r165 with directdrive or autopowr, 6r185 only autopowr. The rest will come with the same choises as before.

Medium frame will come with autoquad +, directdrive and autopowr, 6r165 only the last two and 6r185 only autopowr

Then i hope they didn't skimp on quality of the gearbox like they did on the M series. If they did, it's a thing to avoid.

I swapped a 6250r for another one last summer. Passenger seat is annoying not fussed by the dash. But by a very long way the worse thing about the tractor is the pickup hitch. You can’t effing see it and when you lean out the window to see it cuts the drive. I’m not small it must be terrible for shorter people.

I thought JD may have fixed it by now so hopefully they will on the new ones. The good news is I don’t often drive it, I’m quite happy with a tractor I can hitch something on. It does pull well though

Bg

Cable tie on that poxy Seat Switch rubbish sort ya issues of looking at hitch

I was quoted £152k for a fully loaded 6215r last August,Jd dealer bid me £10k less on my trade in than three other dealers (Fendt,Case and Nh) .
