Hey, I may not own a John Deere any longer but I still enjoy being around them:

It’s my understanding the newer larger combines now have a mini fridge.

Seems reasonable. These guys spend a lot of time in the machine during harvest and auto-steer keeps them in the rows so their hands can be free to enjoy a cold one! (pop or water, of course)

Thought at first he was harvesting the roadside, but "naw, that doesn't seem right". My guess is maybe the truck can't or won't go into the field, so the combine came to him.

My how times have changed since I herded that old 14' Gleaner around the wheat fields in Kansas. Open cab; eat the dust and chaff, water was a (dirty) canvas water bag. Ah, those were the days!

Yeah, but the water was clean and COLD, right??


Thanks for the memory

Last two years have been wet here during Harvest. Have to load the semis in the road, usually with a Grain Cart. Really hard on roads and drainage areas. I try to grade them up in good shape before harvest starts. Then go back and repair the damage after they are done. No worries on my part. The taxes paid by these farmers provide the means to do that.

Good friend of mine is a large farmer. 25,000 acres of corn and soy beans. He pee's JD Green.

I can’t even BEGIN to wrap my head around the “25,000 acres”!
