Powerstarâ„¢ Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 if i remember rightly last year when a local contractor had a deutz on hire, after 12 hours ferrying it had done around 2 or 3 litres better on feul than a jd 6920s We have a Deutz and to be fair its not liked, had quite a few problems with it already and it hasnt even seen 400 hours, boss wouldnt touch them as far as updating the fleet goes. If we were to expand we would choose Fendt purely because we've been happy with them in the past, the reason we have JD's is because of the minimal amount of breakdowns, the brilliant dealer backup we recieve, (no childish jokes about, you need it haha ) And basically the dealer loaction is right on the doorstep. There's no point buying in tractors where the dealers arn't much cop, dont like to come out at silly times in the morning etc etc. On a brighter note we have a brand new New Holland which has replaced the TSA115, i only got a quick look but I think it was a T6030. That's the other option too, New Holland. But seeming all the JD's are chipped, the fuel economy is slightly better than the 6020 series, and suprisingly we find the Deutz & NH to drink far more than any of the Deere's.

Do you ever get a chance to do any injecting? Oh and do you have a tine injector for stubble? What did you have for tea last night?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you ever get a chance to do any injecting? Oh and do you have a tine injector for stubble? What did you have for tea last night?! Welcome to Tris's Question Time, Tonight You Get A Chance To Win A Brand New Car If You Can Get The Following Answers Cor-recttttt! 1 - I'm fairly sure it was 2300gl/Acre 2 - It's dairy cow poo. 3 - I havn't had a chance to yet, but i'm sure my turn will come! 4 - This can be used in stubble as far as im aware, It cuts little grooves and the slurry drops in off a dribble bar. I might be wrong though. 5 - Fish fingers, chips & Spgahetti. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
