Hey guys, I'm new to the forum, but have found some good info on here.
Anyway, my younger brother and I have taken over the farm this year after having it rented out for the past few years. When we rented it out we sold our combine, so we need something for the fall. We've always run JD conventionals and know very little about the STS machines. I have heard about guys complaining about dirty samples and a few other problems. I like the looks of the Lexions too. Just wondering what machine you guys would recomend for someone buying there first combine. Pros/cons and what to look out for. (ie I've heard about the grain tank cracking out and the cleaning shoe giving troubles on the older STS's??) Thanks in advance.
