All those electronic devices are good till the tractor gets hit by lightning sitting in the field.

I have worked on red,blue, and green over the years and JD always had quicker parts availability. Some of the others ordered one day a week and if you called the day after you had to wait another week to order. Another issue I have seen with Agco is trying to find parts diagrams for older MF tractors. I can look up JD ,NH , and Kubota parts, select a dealer and get prices.

The biggest issue with the gold star program with Fendt. They put having spare tractors on the dealer. They dont supply them. They make the dealer buy enough of them to self support a certain percentage of the machines they have sold in the last 5 years. Start stackimg up new machines that can't be sold untill after the machine is 5 years out of production its its a hige added cost to the dealer. The are also over enginered in my honest opinion. While ts a cruse control issue the customer support ended up having me test through 3-4 different computers to find the issue. I ended up replacing two of them to grt cruise back for my customer. Needles to say that was an expensive repair for them even after we wrote off a lot of labor.

[@genewilliams7497]

Fendt…… is the tractor that absolutely will not start in really cold weather……. They have too much that a farmer really doesn’t need and as such will have a hard time ever closing their gap behind DEERE.

@@Dirtmonkey Whose warranty? If there isn't a Brendt dealer around, warranty don't mean crap. If you got a (local) dealer, you might do OK. IF you have to travel hours away to get warranty, it ain't worth it. And then there is the issue of parts. New dealers, not many dealers, and slim parts available on the shelf, translates to big problems. All I'm saying is if you can't support the tractor, whether it's better or not, it might not be worth it. And then there won't be a big aftermarket parts availability because its a new machine on the market. One has to consider, do I save money up front and it costs me more money down the road, is it worth it? Name brand machines might not be the best out there, but they will always be there. And then lastly.... what is the non name brand machine worth at trade-in time? What I'm saying is you gotta look at the big picture.

@@gerhardma4297 First off, I have no bias. I don't own a tractor, and never have. I worked for a Bobcat dealer for 15 years. I have sold a LOT of equipment over the years, so my comments are based on my experience with ALL brands of equipment. You do what you want, but be advised that some of these companies may prove to be just great. BUT, some of these companies will just disappear, or be bought out by other companies, and then you kind of get yourself in a position you don't want to be in. Not everybody can work on their own tractors or know where to source parts for repairs. Some don't have the time to do that stuff, and others don't want to work on the stuff and prefer their dealer to take care of it. The point of the matter is. it's not just that this Fendt out specs and out performs other brands of tractors, it' how is this going to be for me in the long run? And yes, it might be cheaper up front, but remember it's going to be worth less at trade in time too. Do the math, and figure out what's the best move for your operation.

@@Tallhandsomefarmer i run two fendts a 720 and 724 theyre really good tractors 5 years and 2500 hours on the 724 no issues and 4 years 1900 on the 720 no issues they don't start in the cold well so we put em in the heated shed at night the front 3 point potentiometer is in a bad spot weve broken 4 on the 724 since we use it for snowblowing The pto gearbox drips water on it and if that freezes the plastic forks break but the part is cheap and takes a few minutes to fix we just have a couple on hand for when that happens a lot of guys around me are ditching deere and case mfd tractors for fendt the remote diagnostics are awesome for getting the occasional nothing code cleared also at the 700 level cheaper significantly cheaper than deere

If it ain’t RED leave it in the shed ! CASE/IH !!!!!!

[@districtattorney-f7q]

I'll keep operating the 40's and 50's farm tractors and highway vehicles. easy to work on and parts availability. I'm 65. nothing new impresses me

[@fullers1966]

This past winter my brother-in-law and sister went over and looked at the plant they took a tour through it

[@LadelleZimmerman]

Give me a John Deere.

[@gerhardma4297]

If you have the chance to compare them in work... you will change immediately. We swapped 5 JD for Fendt over the last 7 years and haven't regretted it for a second. We Americans should really pull our heads out of our asses sometimes and look around the world. It gets us ahead.

[@danholmblad9925]

Great video. A one and done machine. Right up my path.

[@felixbergfors]

They did forget to mention one of the most unique features if a Fendt and that is that a Fendt is the only farm tractor that has a front window that can b e opened. and that fendt is the inovator of the cvt tractor transmission

[@brandonbowser5487]

i have a few questions one is this type of tractor more capable then n skid steer in turms of loader work like moving hard pack snow / dirt / stone? and how does it do with like down presser ik skid steers are kinda met to have down persser but a tractor of this size must have some strath / so i guess im asking if space or size didn't matter would this tractor out work a skid steer just with a bucket ? in ur op ofc .

[@jonniessink1]

No this won't replace a skid steer for a couple of reasons. 1. This particular tractor is roughly double the size of a normal skid steer. So maneuverbity is a lot less then a skid steer. 2. The loader arms a to weak for serious dirt work. Will it do the work... yes but not as efficiently as a dedicated loader. It's more used for lighter material like hay bales, grains, cow feed, etc. So about 4,000 to 6,000lbs of lift capacity, where a normal loader can do about 8,000 to 10,000lbs of lift capacity in the the same weight class. This tractor is like a multi tool. It can do a little bit of everything.

A big quality producer in Europe. The issue is local support and parts. Local support works great in Wisconsin no so hot so in San Angelo, TX. Ya still gotta deal with the Holy Cow Warranty for much of the USA. Front PTO is nice.

[@josephvanderlaan159]

Fendts are the best 😎

[@jarretolsen2771]

I’m Deutz fahr all the way. They make engines for Fendt. John Deere is all about making you pay for the green paint, and not allowing you to fix it. Not to mention the DEI they’re into.

IDK, Fendt is a good tractor and all the pros and cons mean nothing till 20yrs go by. I'm no expert but have a 60 yr old Case diesel that starts on a crank even after sitting outside and not running for years, still works great. Opened the gearbox-no lie, completely new looking even the red cast paint used to seal the pores.

[@prinzeugenvansovoyen732]

23.56 my neighbar has one for firewood splitting and forwarding as well as ocasional wood chipping, 23000 hours and no repairs other than oil changes and filters as well as a alternator due to road salt corroding the contacts and a tube for a front tire - he found whyever a hand-forged square shank nail that was even pointed up in the middle of the woods with it

[@kylepopell3585]

I’m sold already just on the warranty. Goodbye John Deere.

[@StanWawzysko]

Most important is the dealer that sell the equipment

[@spstoopst4363]

Thought about checking out a fendt or deutz fahr that would be comparable to 5/6 jd for snow. Cvt sounds good.

[@jbeck66]

Fendt seem like a great tractor. I don't own one. I priced them. I have New Holland, John Deere, and Massey. The Fendit does seem better. Part of it is which level of trim in the others you are looking at. But the price???? "Working with' Others do that.

[@nicholaslacovara2381]

This guy is way too verbose. But you keep bringing him back - Thank you for that.

[@cjones1262]

It's about time we get fendt here. Now bring over valtra.

[@tbix1963]

I guess I’ve been watching to many farming KZbin videos from the European area. First thought when you were starting the video was, that’s a Fendt.

[@Dirtmonkey]

agreed. Fendt is good stuff

[@misterx243]

No tractor in that category with these options? John Deere 6m series, Case IH Vestrum, NH t5 auto command, Valtra G series in europe all have same options as them. Fendt can be better build quality but still not that big of a difference. Probably weird American specs or 'we don't sell those in USA' corporate BS

[@mberry7a]

Does Fendt sell the loader separate just like most brands?
