We’ve got 2 S680s my uncle has a couple of X10s and a whole shed of s7 series and our whole district is green.
There were a lot of green machines sitting on the sidelines this harvest waiting for technicians to get their shit together to reset this or service that.
Back in the era of the 95XX or even 8820s you could do it all yourself.
Now a fucking light comes on and you need to call someone to drive over an hour from our nearest dealership to plug in his gizmo to say this needs to happen.
Not to mention they totally understock on prices.
Harvesting is rapidly becoming unprofitable. Just because an X10 can strip 50 tons an hour doesn’t mean it’s worthwhile at $1m a machine. That’s why we keep a CTS2 on the sidelines. Mightn’t strip as fast but at least it’s reliable and we can maintain it without getting a site visit
