People don’t realize this isn’t just an issue for farmers. If John Deere can take away the right to repair, what can automotive companies do? Edit: I get it. Other companies are doing it too. The point is it’s still illegal because in the US we have the Right to Repair law. If they let John Deere get away with it, all the other companies can too.

This issue is massive, with repercussions that affect the bottom lines of farmers everywhere. Farming is really a game of timing everything. You have a very narrow window to properly do each task, whether it is seeding, spraying, or harvesting; if you are outside of the ideal window it will hurt your profits. By needing to wait for "techs" to come out and reset your computer or make a minor fix that 10 years ago you could do yourself the cost is in the thousands. I don't know any farmers that support John deere on this issue.

@@nubreed13 that's not entirely true. They can purchase the hardware and software (much like a dealership does) but it ultimately is cost prohibitive unless you want to start working on tractors all day and stop farming. I get where JD is coming from. Alot of time and $ goes into the development of any product. The high tech machines we have now or even 25 years ago are expensive to design and build. You want to fix it? Go ahead and buy the software. Don't think that just bc they built a tractor there isn't an entire division of electrical engineers, softaare designers, programmers and others involved that still have to be paid and continue developing new products. Btw, thank the us epa if you really have a problem with it. Without increasing demands for cleaner engines with increased efficiency we would still be running the old black smoke spewing tractors of yester year.

Hey James, fun tidbit real quick. As a farmer in south Alabama, there’s a big movement from the smaller farmers, those that don’t have 50,000 acres in Nebraska, to buy older tractors. We run 13 total in our operation and the newest being a 1992 Case Magnum. The “Right to Repair” battle has caused farmers to stray away from newer and often times safer equipment for things they can repair without going bankrupt. Even Deere’s more “every man” oriented tractors are still pushing $80,000 by the time your done paying interest.

The same issue is going on in the UK agricultural machinery dealers have suffered really low sales for at least two or three years since 2016 as most tractors tend to be more expensive to buy and run as most new tractors have to have add blue systems to cut emissions in the UK and they are a lot more complex to fix. They are also a bit bigger than the tractors brought out 20 years ago and the issue with this is that they can't easily get down the narrow roads/lanes and sometimes the gates to the fields.

That's the thing. Farmers don't need to buy these new locked tractors. They can buy or refurbish old tractors. Either ones the own or someone else's unused tractors. Being industrial equipment, users tend to keep them until they have a serious problem. It's not like autos, where people upgrade because of the need to own the new model. This issue makes fixing tractors they'd normally replace more economically viable.

​@@lokisgodhi Yes, keeping old tractors and using them 25.000 hours and more is economically; on the one hand. On the other hand, you need tractors that are reliable. New trators with little hours on the clock tend to be more reliable than old ones. Plus today you'd want new tech in your tractor, like ISOBUS and autosteer. It's difficult to impossible to upgrade older ones. And apart form that, most farms are owenr/oparator businesses. And we rather spend 14 hours on a modern fancy tractor, than on an old goat. Check out "Fendt 1050" and "Valtra N 174D" for examples of state of the art models. I personally don't feel the need to get a John Deere. That right to repair discussion is just one of multiple reasons why I chose other brands.

They could do defunct brands like Minneapolis-Moline, Big Bud, Ford Tractor division, Allis-Chalmers, Oliver, McCormick, and White Farm but many of these were absorbed by the aforementioned brands. Now an even more interesting story is how old man Lamborghini went from building tractors and farm equipment to producing supercars to destroy Ferrari.

Active Duty U.S. Marine here, and I have been an engineer equipment mechanic for 14 years now, and we use quite a few J.D. pieces of gear. Medium bulldozer, front end loader, tracked hydraulic excavator, runway sweeper, and either a fuel or water 600gpm pump powered by a J.D. engine. It's funny that this video was released so recently because I am actually in the process of repairing one of our J.D. powered vehicles. We are trying to get an ECM flashed with J.D. programming but the process is... arduous even for us. We have anywhere from a $10,500 to $30,000 electrical diagnostic system for our vehicles, but the J.D. Service Advisor software is not on any of it. We have to get approved to open purchase a $300 software flash from a local J.D. licensed dealer, that is about 120 miles from our base. I thought that was unusual, but it sounds like I have it easy compared to farmers.

Oh, so why can't the ACTUAL software engineers that went through college, courses etc. repair tractors? Oh, you need a special paper? Bullshit. I've been to a "hacker" repair shop where unauthorised mechanics repair John Deere stuff, because there is no dealerships for farmers nearby (and believe me, transporting a combine through country isn't an easy thing.) and I spoke to farmers on the site and some of them are repairing their stuff there for more than a decade without any problems.... until John Deere started to block ECU's after recognising someone unauthorised tampered with them.

soon as I hear "right to repair" I knew Louis Rossman would show up at one point.

My grandad tried explaining to me about a John Deer farm embargo in the mid 90’s.. he said something about because of a computers he needs to have a semi come to the farm and pick up the tractor whenever something had to be changed(he meant fixed, he’s old German and English wasn’t good).. the next year he sold everything he owned John deer(clothing included) and started driving Case/new Holland.

people here buy dead deers.. then what they do, is rip out all the electronics. i mean everything. then buy a 3rd party generic gps steering module, buy a mechanical fuel injection pump, and a standalone turbo controller made for tuning cars.. and a mechanical hydraulic valve block. replace original hydraulic pump with a more traditional style one. basicly rebuilding the deere to proper specs. the transmission is the not so easy one, as some electronics stay intact. but that gets fooled, so you don not have automatic shifting but you get flappy shifting like in cars. and some buttons. the results are, a deere that works.

I've grown up on a farm my whole life. My dad and my brother both farm. Mostly because of this channel actually, I've gotten into cars, it's really become a passion for me. So for you guys to do an episode on something so engrained in my past and my life is really really cool! And I was honestly a little worried you'd sound a bit amateur, but you guys did amazing.

Or a Magnum

The price of used pre-electronic JD tractors has skyrocketed. If you ever heard a John Deere D with either a 7.6 or 8.2L, 2cyl engine with HUGE pistons. If you work it pretty hard you will never forget that exhaust sound. It's as distinctive as a Harley Davidson compared to an inline 4cyl bike engine. I would never buy a computerized tractor.

I grew up on a farm here in the great white north, and we had a lot of John Deere equipment. Our baler had that "bale ejector technology" (we just called it a kicker, but I don't know if that's the technical term for it), and it worked really well... as long as it didn't get stuck after throwing a bale. Which happened. A lot. But, that's farming for ya: if everything is going smoothly, wait 5 minutes. And this is just a small nitpick, but a lot of non-farmers don't know the difference between hay and straw. Hay is the blend of grasses & legumes (like clover, for instance) that gets fed to the animals; that part you nailed, full-stop. Straw, on the other hand, is the stem of the grain plant, gets used for bedding the animals' stalls & pens, and is typically much more disposable; it's much more likely to be used for haunted house mazes & soapbox derby courses than hay. Like I said, minor nitpick, but I thought I'd just let you know

Amazing to see Louis Rossmann cross over into a Donut Media video. Right to repair is a serious issue that needs more attention. It seemed like for too long Louis was the only one giving it true spotlight. Thanks guys!

Imagine if the dorks at John Deer had their Window/IOS on their computer act up and they couldn't get their IT department to fix it. They had to call a Microsoft or Apple tech to fix it or they had to bring it to a store to fix. All their computer work comes to a stop because they're not allowed to mess with the computers to fix it because its not a hardware issue, its a software issue. Then when it comes back repaired it turns out a plug just got a little loose and had to be plugged back in. Also that would be 10 grand for the repair, thanks.

The issue with apple and John Deere is they won’t give authorization to a certified local dealer or repair shop. We don’t have this issue in the AC business… and yes ACs have gotten just as technical with programmed drive boards. The difference is AC manufacturers make businesses go through a process to the certify them as an authorized repair or installer. If this was this case with John Deere… the local business who is authorized to work on the equipment and knows the regulations will be liable if emissions are not set correctly or if their own repair caused more issues.

Imagine how many inventions would be lost today if napkins wouldn't exist.

Suppose that you were sitting down at a table. The napkins are in front of you, which napkin would you take? The one on your ‘left’? Or the one on your ‘right’? The one on your left side? Or the one on your right side? Usually you would take the one on your left side. That is ‘correct’ too. But in a larger sense on society, that is wrong. Perhaps I could even substitute ‘society’ with the ‘Universe’. The correct answer is that ‘It is determined by the one who takes his or her own napkin first.’ …Yes? If the first one takes the napkin to their right, then there’s no choice but for others to also take the ‘right’ napkin. The same goes for the left. Everyone else will take the napkin to their left, because they have no other option. This is ‘society’… Who are the ones that determine the price of land first? There must have been someone who determined the value of money, first. The size of the rails on a train track? The magnitude of electricity? Laws and Regulations? Who was the first to determine these things? Did we all do it, because this is a Republic? Or was it Arbitrary? NO! The one who took the napkin first determined all of these things! The rules of this world are determined by that same principle of ‘right or left?’! In a Society like this table, a state of equilibrium, once one makes the first move, everyone must follow! In every era, this World has been operating by this napkin principle. And the one who ‘takes the napkin first’ must be someone who is respected by all. It’s not that anyone can fulfill this role… Those that are despotic or unworthy will be scorned. And those are the ‘losers’. In the case of this table, the ‘eldest’ or the ‘Master of the party’ will take the napkin first… Because everyone ‘respects’ those

yeah, and with a crap ThinkPad hooked up to a 20 year old machine, he'll still get it fixed. (though it might take a little bit longer) On most of these machines, there are items that are almost "wear and tear" so you just know when a lift stops working that it's a certain $0.15 rubber o-ring. But when the rules in place state that you can't bring your machine back out of limp mode "legally" after you replaced it for the 4th time?

i used to work for john deere as a mechanic and one thing they dont mention is they will force you to buy new parts, example the yellow ball on top the cab is a sat position com and they will update that and if u dont by the new one and have a tec program it for you, then it is not that your tracker will not do auto steer your trackter will not do shit,

Yeah, sadly I'm gonna buy an iPhone for something work related (a service we use has an app that only works on iPhones) I'm getting a used one, most likely with a broken screen, but I still hate that I gotta do it.

It's weird but I can understand where John Deere is coming from, based off a past experience. I own a newer Colt revolver. The mainspring broke once and I begged Colt to just send me the part. They finally obliged...in exchange that I agreed to void the remainder of my warranty. Once the part came, I installed it, and everything functioned perfectly. I suddenly heard a pop while the gun was sitting on the table and it was once again broken. Turned out the new mainspring was too stiff for my specific revolver and it caused the hammer to snap. I called Colt back to set up a PAID repair, as I had obviously already voided my warranty. They started the RMA process and to my surprise, went ahead and did it for free. In the end, I learned that while most components are machined in bulk these days, tolerances can still vary and it's often just better to let the experienced gun smith do it...at least with something as finely tuned as a good Colt revolver. Of course firearms and tractors are in no way similar, but maybe John Deere knows best. I have repaired countless firearms, including several revolvers. I honestly felt insulted when Colt warned me "our revolvers are a bit more difficult to self service than your typical S&W or Ruger". As long as John Deere offers a fair warranty, I can't personally knock them for their stance on this.

I really hope more people open their eyes to the issues farmers around the world are facing because of this. And if this battle is won it’ll open up the door for similar fights against the automotive industry, apple, samsung, etc

As someone who worked for one of the largest New Holland dealers in the USA it’s $145 an hour to have a mechanic come out, not including parts so if you live 2 hours away from the dealership which is not uncommon and the programming of the new part takes an hour you will be charged for 5 hours bc ride time is billed

That first post war tractor. That thing is litteraly what comes to mind when you think of a tractor. I remember seeing alot of farms in my hometown still using them.
