      Sure. Just like $100+ million dollar aircraft shouldn't have systems problems like flaps and aileron disagreements, instrument failures, etc. It happens and the cost of the equipment has NOTHING do with it.

      The world of programming has become a joke. Sure there are a few top guys with real knowledge of computer science and systems testing, but they are tucked away doing some high level research.
      Most programmers are the equivalent of teenagers working fast food. They just bash out some really bad copy and pasted code and the manager just rolls their eyes when the customer mentions the fries are cold the burger was mashed. Half a century in most companies and consumers still haven't figured out what to require contractually. The cheapest bid ain't always the best deal. 2/3 of it is done by contractors in India.

    I gonna keep our 1644 Axial flow going till the bin rusts out. Set n forget. If the crop starts thinning out a bit, push the go fast lever forward a bit more to keep her swallowing the same amount all the time. It gives an excellent sample and it is super easy to adjust if needed. Only has a 25 ft front on it but we have a lot of steep hills and a lot of trees to contend with. Beautiful, smooth running, quiet, non complicated machine.

    Since that combine costs more than a house, maybe you can park it near the road and use it for Airbnb rental income during the housing shortage: *Shiny Green Tiny Home - One Careful Owner* Satellite communication where service is available and modern LED touchscreens are included. Surrounded by acres of quiet foliage depending on the season. As Seen on TH-cam.

    We just got a new 8R410 this year and John Deere displays are slow. It's like they're still using internals from 2005 or their software is just horribly optimized. We run an Ag Leader for GPS and control and it boots up and aquires GPS signal faster than it takes the Deere display to just turn on sometimes.

    I'm pretty sure the calibrated yield is of more interest to guys that are mapping the yield of their land for variable rate fertilizer applixation the next season or to compare different growing methods or varieties. Probably more useful where irrigation can reduce weather variability.
