Congratulations Buzzer on buying the depot !Whats the crack with these new combiners then ? Those tracks look like trouble to me,too much to go wrong. Would rather have a big old
wheel. I dont understand why you need tracks as they are normally working in hot dry weather so dont need to worry about getting stuck ?What sort of money is one of these Wrighty ?
Evening DEANB
There’s one advertised on the internet a 2019 for £380,000, I would imagine a new one will be pushing 500k. Tracks are becoming more popular as they do less damage to the land, as our summers seem to be getting wetter and later than previous years.
Cheers Wrighty.
Looks an awkward load Wrighty, as far as getting traction goes. If the redesign of the harvesters means tracks, how will they fit in those wells on your trailers?
Colin.
Morning Colin
That is an old picture and the trailer which was a Nene has now been sold, it was a numb trailer as it was 50’ long and up to 55’ when extended which as you pointed out made traction difficult.
It was replaced in 2018 by a Wraith combine trailer which doesn’t extend but open outwards hydraulicly doing away with the need for outriggers, it has two wheel wells to keep the height down.
Cheers Wrighty.
