Introducing the 5700 40' 24r20'' Planter | An In-Depth Walk Around

[@taylor11089]

The sad part about Kinze is they are Abandoning Their Customer Base that made them. Over 95% of Kinze’s Customers DON’T Want Electric Drive Planters. My neighbor who has been Running Kinze 24Row 20” Planters since the Early 90’s back when it was the 2700 Toolbar Frame, just wants a Finger Pickup or a Vacuum Drive Planter that is either Ground Drive or Hydraulic at the Most, he has talked about Rebuilding his Old Planter since he CANNOT Get a New Finger Pickup or Vacuum Meter Planter anymore, even though you can get a 3705 in Europe/Ukraine if you want one. Most of Kinze’s Customer just want the Basic/Simple Finger Pickup Planters or a Vacuum Seed Meter Planter at the Most. This is coming from Kinze Planter Customers, Dealers, and even Kinze’s Own Regional/Territory Reps who are ALL Saying that Kinze Customers are UnHappy with the Direction to Electric Only Planters. Just like how Kinze Customers wanted the Basic 1050 (New 1121) Style Grain Cart to comeback, Kinze’s Customers want that Basic Planter that Made Kinze Famous. Kinze use to be a Company that would Build a Planter how the Customer Wanted It, The Customers Way, had now turned into a Company that says this is what We Make, Take It or Leave It! Kinze has Turned Corporate and their Customers have Taken Notice! Kinze Better Start LISTENING to The Wants and Needs of its Customers who DON’T Want a Expensive Planter that is Loaded with Electronics and Electric Drive and Seed Meters, they just want a Basic Planter that Plants Corn, 90%+ of Guys still Plant Corn @ 5-6.5 MPH and have NO Need to Go 10-12MPH because they still can plant their Crops in a Efficient & Timely Manner at 5-6 MPH. Like a Kinze Dealer said, that if a New Planter Company, Comes Out making Finger Pickup & Vacuum Meters they will Get Kinze’s Lost Customer Base. A Territory Rep Told me at a Farm Show, if Kinze was still making these Finger Pickup and Vacuum Meter Planters I could have already Sold 250+ Planters, but Kinze Corporate Refuses to Listen to its Customers Wants & Needs. Kinze has Quit Producing A LOT of Models that they Once Made such as 32 & 36 Row 30” Planters, No 22” Row Planters Anymore, No 36-38” Planters anymore, No 12 Row 20” Planter same Frame as the 8Row 30” 3500 Planter. Maybe I should Start a Planter Company after Hearing from All of the UnHappy Current & Former Kinze Customers, Dealers, and Territory Reps, because they have All said that if someone Starts making these Basic Style Planters Again, they will Dominate the Planter Market!
