Experimental Tractor
Dec 30, 2023 17:58:27 #
My farmer tilling my field with a $600,000 experimental John Deere tractor that's not yet in production. It is on loan from John Deere testing wear and tear before being offered on the market. I rode with him for a while, and this is the smoothest riding, quietest tractor I have ever driven or ridden in. Everything is automatic, of course.

Good shot of some odd machinery John. Looks like it will get the job done.

Very neat, must have been a fun ride.

Thanks, Don. It’s a monster.

At $600,00 how do you make a profit on a crop? Great looking machine, though.
That’s how my farmer feels. He’d love to have it, but that’s not going to happen.

That's certainly an interesting looking tractor, John. At least you can't get a flat tire. But imagine that track jumping off of its guide wheels. I don't think the AAA club can help you much.

Yeah, the one is a little beyond AAA help. Thanks for looking, Tom. We are beginning to see a few track implements around here. My guy has a grain wagon on tracks to livery from the combine to the semi.
