It’s incredible to see the thought and engineering that goes into these machines, regardless of brand!
I think Cole forgot about all the problems they had the first year with the Case. I also think it is a learning curve for the John Deere and 50 hours isn't that long. After all it took almost 2 years to get the Case dialed in where they liked it. That first year they with the case they had so many problems with break downs and loss. However, the man knows what he likes, you can't fault him for that. Seriously each brand has its own good points and bad points. No one brand is better or worse than the other. I operated Deere, Case, Massey, New Holland they all have their own good and bad points.

hmm, but maybe you forgot this was the 2nd John Deere combine. Seems to me that's kind of a wash - but if really we want to be honest, that would mean John Deere wasn't even in the game. And sure, 'supply issues' but supply issues is euphemism to "company thought they could save money by outsourcing; thus, this "supply issues" totally their fault."

That used to be so but all we've seen is the build quality of the red ones is down the tube, just look at Ivers this year, they bought 2 brand new 9250s and had major issue's all season, they ended up with 3 different combines on loan to get done, the Deere is still built to a lot higher standard.

Red, green, purple or lavender. I’d like to tip my hat to all the engineers, designers and other brainiacs who are responsible for these marvels of modern technology. The capabilities of these machines are crazy! They can steer themselves, pick your crop, remove kernels from cobs (or beans from pods), determine the yield, spit & spread trash out the back, etc., etc. All while you are cool & comfy in the cab. And if that weren’t impressive enough, they look pretty cool in drone shots, too! Kudos to anyone who has a hand in designing & creating these fantastic beasts!

Which ones are purple & lavender?
For the case funnels, just press on them and set the sensitivity. You'd change the sensitivity per the crop you're doing and possibly even conditions you're in. That scales what it shows you per the colors.
I work in the auto industry and have always wanted to know how a combine works as they amaze me. I learned a huge amount. My father worked in the auto industry in Europe and for years supplied a tractor-maker. The fact that auto steer is something like 40+years old was one of the things that blew my mind about farming. I regret not following my dream and giving agricultural college a go. What I'd give to drive a Case IH today...!
I’m a firm case ih fan but you did a great job of pointing out both sides pros and cons. It was also very informative and interesting. Good job

I expected at the "maintenance/repairs" part there to be a strike against Deere for trying to stop self-repairs? Making downtimes and ginormous trips to authorised dealers inevitable? I mean the right-to-repair case against Deere was won last January, but it's the same juggernaut run by the same people; I'd be very wary. [Not running any equipment myself so it's second- thirdhand opinions, hence I ask.]
This was really well done. Kept my attention all the way through.
Very interesting - thank you for taking the time and effort to run through the detailed comparison Cole.
Thank you for making this video. Very well thought out and executed. Extremely informative and yet still very entertaining.
As somebody who was around 1660s, 2366s, and 2388s, the amount of room and luxuries in those cabs blows my mind. In the 1660 I was around you were lucky if the AC even worked. It didn't have the beeper to warn when the bin was full. The 23's did but still didn't have all those amenities.

Good video and interesting seeing how these machines work. My place borders 200 acres and they grow either corn or cotton. They have an attachment for cotton that drops the huge round bails which is cool to watch. Being simple to operate is open for debate…I’m still trying to cipher the new radio controls in my truck.

There is a switch to raise the tail board. You can pull header trailers with a John Deere’s as well

Really appreciate the time you put into this comparison video! Thoroughly enjoyed it!
It’s almost like one is simple and from 2014 and one is super technical from 2021. One being easier to work on, and one more complicated with more capabilities. I wonder if you had the newer case if things would be more hidden or technical? Just curious.

I know it will get a lot of laughs, would love to see a side by side of a Gleaner S98, yep it’s just a Class 8 due to less horse power but there’s a reason it needs less horse power to due the same job. Also would have been nice to see fuel consumption between the Case & Deer, unless I missed it. Maybe do a Gleaner next year since 2023 is its 100th Anniversary. Also the new larger Cases come with a different monitor & also have new Auto Control settings for Adjusting settings, most agree that using auto control on the 9250 is equal to or better then the most experienced operator.

Cole both red combines you found to match the price for case are both 2 wheel drive and that surly changes the price and I’m assuming tue deere has 4 wheel drive so that’s not a fair price comparison, other than that good video!

Excellent presentation, covers all the items which really matter.
If this comparison would have been done after your first fifty hours with your Case combine, which one would have won?
Cole you forgot the biggest technology on the 2021 Case is the afs self learning tech is a huge bonus for the combine.

Well I think you should try other ones too. Like for example Claas. Those are incredibly popular here in Europe. Or New Holland for instance. Those are fine too. Once you stared reviewing combines in my opinion you should keep doing that. People will watch that gladly. And now I am curious how would a Gleaner look in comparision to the red one. Those look to be really simple and I think they are priced very well based on their simplicity and unique design.
@tjmfarming9584

Oh Ho, talking about those grey ones are we? I’ve learned from experience going from an older case to a gleaner. I’ve never run corn with it, because it’s only ever cut Wheat, Barley, lupins and oats, but it’s definitely not standing a chance against the case 1. The feeder house is oddly small and offset compared to other combines, making compatibility with header fronts difficult 2. In order to work on the combine you need to open out the auger just to get to the covers and access points to the separators sivs and concave, plus you’d spend a lot longer opening up the ladder and lifting up the engine bay roof on the gleaner than you would for any other combine ever, the Deere in that regard is much much faster. Case hands down wins in my opinion

Gotta love it, the John Deere dealership gives them a combine to use for the harvesting season and Cole craps all over it. Will Cooper have to give his season long bailer and tractor back as well? Maybe Cole can talk the dealer into giving them a tractor and seeder to use this spring.

I worked for a case ih dealer and moved a lot of both of them and the case is more operated friendly over the John Deere and the back ladder is definitely a pain and a finger getter and I’m a big fan of of the tracks for loading and unloading on a detach in rain or snow and even ice but ice is scarier in its self
This is a very detailed review. Good job
Color doesn't matter: Dealer support does. If your dealer will go an extra mile, then you buy the color they sell. A true comparison would have nearly identical size machines run by operator's with near equal experience in the same field. Not knowing what the seat controls are in both machines is a clue that you aren't familiar with them, so other controls may be strange, hence hard to compare. Great video, though! And your commentary is hilarious! Loved it!
