I'm sure its not anything too over the top, Preimer brand MacDon swathers have sold through John Deere for years anyway.

Wow, fresher than today's headlines!

May have to keep farmerjones away from any tall buildings or bridges though!

I thought case-ih was partnered with Macdon? What does this mean for the future of case combine headers?

CNH has developed their own line of headers, if CNH sells MD this year it will likely be the last year.

so i finally will win the argument with my fellow deere friends that macdon does indeed BUILD A BETTER HEADER FOR A SWATHER!!! and the swather itself is better too imo lol

Maybe Deere will haul all those 600D headers into the bush or just give everybody back there money
