As your handle says, it's your lucky day.
I ran those two together in 07.
We don't get big time tonnage like that with any combine in our conditions so I'll just give general comments.
In peas they were similar but if the straw was tough at all the JD was a little better at putting it through.
The CR was better in canola, both less loss and cleaner.
They were about a wash in wheat.
Cab nicer in the CR. Quiet. Didn't care for the push button hydro handle reverse.
CR kept rad completely clean and air filter I don't think would have needed service in 200 hours but I only put on 121.
JD keeps rad virtually clean but only get about 70 hours out of air filter.
Don't care for CR's stone trap system.
Cr turned short, JD OK.
My daughter ran the CR most of the time, called herself Team Yellow.
You should ask her about changing that concave shear bolt.
It would go something like "that G%#*^%^ F*&^[email protected]%& bolt".
One evening just before dark she came on the radio. She said
I see there's a guy up here taking pictures from the road.
I'm just coming up by him.
Does this combine make me look fat?
