About 1/2 of ours do the same now.
All pigs and pig feed, I should post this in the old toy thread as it was her last shift.
Trucks (and tractors) are really well looked after.

John deere case nh...release videos pain me, youd think there introducing a series of big brother...melodramatic with absolutely f*ck all real techinical detail...total joke and unmatchable imo.

JD are practicing their melodrama for the court room. Won't surprise me at all if there isn't a class action over the X9 lemon. No wonder they're reinventing the S7. Have herd of one bloke at Deni with 2 🍋 . One with 120hrs on it and he can't move it. Dealer can't sort it either.
I think the X9 will be like Agcos 2370 ultra hi density baler... bought back and scrapped... million bucks + a pop for a garden ornament

Poorly engineered $ wise imo, in 20 years youd never keep it running.

What would gappen if some of the big custom cutter boys bought a fleet of them and they couldnt get the work done? Be enough to put them outa business if they lost thier customers. Would jd be liable? Would they be liable for farmers court claims for lost crops?

In mining cintracts usually include availability figures, mtbf kpi etc, and penalty clauses.

Never seen any such contract in ag.

So it would fall under applicable consumer law.

If it's a big enough 🍋 and a class action is threatened and there's a massive chance of reputational damage , I'm sure they'd act. It's not just a few here either. There's one youtube channel I was watching , and her partners employer had bought one. Countless videos in which it's had multiple failures.
