As a large arable UK farmer who first had many JD tractors back in the early 1970s, we used to be happy until about 10 years ago, then we found that the usual JD product reliability and repair costs with 7,000 series tractors was unusually poor. The same happened then started with the 6,000 series tractors. We came to realise JD was no longer as reliable to justify a premium price tag. They either took less care in design or designed down to a build price, or both! To add insult to injury, we found that when we came to trade in for new that the poor reliability had hit second hand demand and values. JD would not give a back up guarantee for their biggest 9620T if it broke down. We said back your product or we walk, but JD didn't care or budge. We looked at Fendt and found them similar price but that a 240hp Fendt used £10,000 less fuel than a JD over 5 years, and that was when diesel was 60% of todays prices, held its resale value and was more reliable. We changed the whole JD fleet to Fendt and have never looked back! This is how easy it is for a few greedy top executives to ruin a top products reputation in a few short years of taking their customers for granted.

I’ve seen it done and been one of the employees who lost their jobs in the process. It’s heart-breaking and sickening.

He already had a big newer Deere with computerized everything and air-conditioning. But he pulled his old Deere out of the barn to use as a back-up when he had troubles with the new one. Three years later he just uses the old one. During planting and harvest seasons he runs the old Deere 3 shifts, taking turns on the tractor with 2 of his sons, and the big new beast he's still paying on just sits there in the shed gathering dust. He's not a happy farmer. Guess what he tells other farmers who want advice on a new tractor.

My dad got screwed by john deere. It was a riding lawn mower but my dad was tired of wasting his hard earned money on Walmart brands every two years. So he wanted a good name brand, he could trust. He knew deere was good because he grew up seeing it. Dad was getting on in years and didn't want to have to deal with repairs. One of john deeres snake oil salesmen talked dad into their el cheapo mower. He had less than 24 hours on the machine when it kept slipping out of gear. I checked it out and found out the the rear end gears were plastic. Yes plastic. The rear end gears. I couldn't believe it. I bought a replacement rearend from deere and should of checked with Fisher Price instead. The deere replacement was junk too. Dad was so infuriated he quit mowing the grass. He hired the neighbor kid to mow his grass. When I bought the replacement part from deere, the salesman told me before I left to be sure to come back. I told him, my dad wouldn't have another piece of sh&t john deere ever again. A guy in the back looked at me like he wanted to fight. Musta been the manager. Dad couldn't believe he wasted his hard earned money on something he "knew" was good. I know no one in my family will ever buy from deere. I wish the farmers godspeed.

Hello all. Regarding John Deere and its move to Mexico. I have some personal history with John Deere. I live in Canada where John Deere used to have a factory in Welland Ontario. That factory opened in 1911. Every single year of its operation saw the highest tonnage output per man hour worked and the highest profit margins of any John Deere facility in the world. In the 80’s they built the AMT there. Then they shifted to the gator. Every gator made was made in Welland. Every contract, John Deere threatened to pull the gator line and move it to South Carolina if we didn’t take a pay cut. Late 90’s or early 2000’s after I quote for the writing on the wall, they did pull the gator line and attempt to move it. They ended up losing almost 2 years of production and eventually moved the line back to welland. Im no mathematician but I figure they could have paid $100 per hour for labour and still saved money. Not sure if anyone puts 2 and 2 together but John Deere has been outsourcing parts for decades so the made in America is actually nothing more than a mantra. They are the pioneers of offshore outsourcing. Welland works was closed and abandoned and left for the tax base of welland to pay for demolition and clean up. That plant was all based on piece work pay for the shop floor. One day I went for a walk and got all the times for every part on a 540 loader which was the he machine I welded. Every bushing, stamped part, weld, assembly, paint, and even the stickers cost John Deere $165 in direct labour. Nobody on this earth can convince me that John Deere can ship a loader so far as across the street for $165. The cost for employees to a company that has had pensions for 3 generations is not the labour cost, I would argue it is more likely the pension administration fees and health insurance fees. That is not to say employees should not have pensions and health insurance. Im saying pension fund managers, insurance companies and company uppers make too much. John Deere is certainly not alone in that. It is for the most part not the fault of the fella begging on the corner that he is begging on the corner. When there are no jobs there are no options. Here in peterborough ontario, Quaker Oats actually pays less per hour than they did 25 or 30 years ago. No adjustment for inflation. Just the actual number per hour is a smaller number than it was. GM used to build their own bumpers in Oshawa. I assume about $40 or $50 would have had one ready to install all in the same building. They started outsourcing so that bumper was loaded onto no less than 4 different trucks and run through 3 separate facilities all the while collecting road salt that hinders the chrome electroplating process. They demolished their warehouse so they don’t pay tax on it and sold heavy trucks to sit on the highway and bung up traffic for the rest of society while they make a profit on heavy truck sales and show a loss on light truck manufacturing and went to our government for a welfare check of close to a billion dollars of tax base support while kids in school have no books or sports gear. I know I am speaking of the Canadian experience but it is the same experience as America. Gotta wonder if the community would be better off keeping folks employed on farms. What is it we are chasing anyway? What is it we really want out of life? This particular post is regarding John Deere but something as simple as a pair of jeans should also be considered. Why don’t we make them in our own communities just like we are looking to fix our tractors in our own community? A town of 50000 people would theoretically need about 50000 pair of jeans a year. That sounds like a lot of folks kept off the street corners.
@bobfg313010 күн бұрын
Companies had their own pension funds. Basically they were another part of the financial department of the company. Health insurance in Canada isn't much of an issue.

Not that simple.

Clothes would have to be more expensive to support the wages we have here, and we would need to consume less clothes to not put everyone in clothes factories. I would love to go back to high-quality clothes that you keep and repair for a long time though. Cars/tractors are one of the few things that probably still work to keep the factories close because people still pay 20-30.000 for them and expect a quality product that will last 15 years. Thing about clothes factories, especially making fabrics, is also that they pollute the surroundings a bunch. Nobody wants that around. Let China have 'em. If everyone started going to their local tailor/seamstress and getting good quality clothes that lasted years that would be amazing, but I doubt it.

As someone who has been working on right to repair in Minnesota for several years, this isn’t new information. John Deere has been the major roadblock every year. We finally got digital right to repair passed and it went into affect in July, but with a notable exemption of agricultural equipment. Republicans refused to support it with that in there. Farm Bureau was also against it. They use fear mongering and lies about farmers overriding emissions systems as justification for why it shouldn’t be allowed. Or that farmers might get hurt if they are allowed to repair certain stuff. It’s wildly offensive to farmers. And laughable that they care about the emissions. The JD MOU is a joke.

It had a problem where it would go about 100 feet and stop. Crank up and go another 1000 feet. They came and got the mower and replaced he seat and brought it back under warranty and no charge. The transmission went out at 300 hours on it because it was a junk low end mower that they should not have made. They buy the transmission from a company named something like tuff tourq. That company makes several lines of quality from junk to very good. About 3 years ago I bought another Deere mower and it had a problem where it may not start but moving the wires and it would run. It may mow 2 or 3 times with no problem and then act up again; This year it finally would not start. They came and picked it up, fixed the problem and brought it back with no charge.

I've been in Ag Crop Input sales for 30 years. I can tell you that farmers have long memories and Deere should NEVER have allowed themselves, for any reason, to get into a combative relationship with their primary customer segment. What you win people with is what you win them to, so if you think that an American (or Canadian in my case) farmer is going to buy a Mexican made combine or sprayer without the means to fix it when something goes wrong, well, you have just signed your company's death warrant. Farmers simply do not have time to wait on your schedule. Even if Deere turns around today and opens the door to Right To Repair and cancels the layoff and the Mexican project, damage has been done and it will take years to regain the trust of the producer.

I have a small John Deere lawn tractor. 1984 112 L. The thing is a tank. I’ve had to do many repairs learned over the years from wear and tear like a new front axle, new, muffler, new carburetor, and a couple of spindles. But it is solid. Because it was sold out, decided to look at something new that might ride a little nicer and go a little faster and I was absolutely shocked at the garbage they are selling for residential lawnmowers. They are tinny, plastic, and weigh about half as much as mine. Plus, they’ve got electronic switches etc which mine doesn’t. If there’s an EMP, I’ll be able to hop on my John Deere and go as far as my gas stores will take me. I’m sticking with the old stuff. They can keep the new crap.

Food for thought here. If Deere wins here you can absolutely bet your vehicle will be next. You’ll park your vehicle in the driveway one evening and a “software update” will occur overnight and the next time you get in your car you’re gonna be in “limp mode” until you have the stealership to “correct” the issue. We’re already there folks. We already take a vehicle to the dealership for a transmission reprogram, power windows to be reprogrammed etc. just a matter of time before we don’t own anything else

Speaking of the Devil I saw a Porsche one time that was so expensive and exclusive they actually had locks on the hood to where you need to make an appointment at the dealer to have your car serviced/fixed because essentially you're locked out of that engine compartment even if you did buy the car!! Anyway there's a VW/Porsche dealer on South Tacoma Way in Tacoma Washington where they had one of these big buck cars on display (it's been several years since this happened). They'd chain it down with heavy duty chain (it almost looked like a ship's chain it was so large) but apparently the thieves had better tools and a cutting torch. That Porsche disappeared one lonely Friday night as I recall but the funny thing was those display parking spots where those hot cars were displayed also were disappeared but by the dealership. After that they never displayed any cars outdoors like that again. I guess that expensive Porsche disappearing clinched that outcome. So that was an expensive lesson on how not to display your priciest vehicles...

On our farm we have 3 John deeres, a 5100M, a 2950, and a 3020. The 2950 and 3020 have been heavily abused their entire life. 3020 sat for 12 years and I just got it running this year. We had the 3020 on rake duty, 2950 on the baler, and 5100 on the mower. The 2950 and 3020 had no issues, while the 5100 kept refusing to go into gear over a seat switch error and had to be shut off and restarted several times. Absolutely miserable.

Working in the farm equipment industry I don’t understand why John Deere stays so popular in the US. Farmers keep complaining yet they keep buying the same brand. It’s like voting with ones wallet isn’t a thing anymore. Look across to Europe and there are far more wider spread of manufacturers used. It’s the “brand loyalty” that keeps screwing farmers. Being loyal to a brand out of principle is the worst thing to do as a customer. Always buy products form a company that does the right things. Reward them for that and others will follow. It’s easy to blame the manufacturer and complain that the other brand doesn’t offer this that or the other convenient tech and keep buying from the most evil corp. All this starts from the end users. Stop buying the stuff that hurts you.

Global corporations are even now trying to commodify all remaining aspects of national cultures, not to mention indigenous cultures. - Jerry Mander Mander was program director at the Foundation for Deep Ecology, and in 1994 founded the International Forum on Globalization, a multi-national think tank in counterpoint to the World Trade Organization and the North American Free Trade Agreement that held sold-out teach-ins and launched the anti-corporation movement. “This regionalization is in keeping with the Tri-Lateral Plan which calls for a gradual convergence of East and West, ultimately leading toward the goal of one world government.

I worked for an elevator company, One of the world's biggest five. The elevator software we used had protection to prevent pirated software being used. If you had a laptop computer say from Chicago and hooked it up to an elevator in Miami it would lock up that elevator it was hooked up too. Then it would take a tech support person from corporate to come out and reset that elevator that the customer would have to pay for since you hooked up an unauthorized computer to the system (many thousands $). Each elevator would only allow specific diagnostic laptops to be hooked up. Each tech's laptop was recorded when you hooked up your computer. Then when your laptop was updated they would check to see if you hooked up to any elevators not under their maintenance contracts. The customer could buy a laptop for around $30,000 which only gave you about 25% of the functions of an adjusters laptop. Many functions you could not monitor or change adjustments. They make huge profits by eliminating repair and maintenance competition from third parties.

My grandfather was a loyal John Deere customer for well over 50 years. I'm glad he didn't live long enough to get the repair quote for his ride-on mower; $5000 for quite simple sheet metal repair. ("We don't make that model anymore, and have a limited stock of replacement parts") Fortunately my uncle has over 50 years welding experience (If you've been to a Rite Aid in Maine, he probably put the steel up for it.) and helped me weld new sheet metal to the mowerdeck and fasten the bogey wheels securely. Took us less than an hour. I don't even bother getting quotes for electronics from them. Don't care if the warrantee is violated by fixing it, I'll just get it done. The whole "you can't fix it, only we can fix it!" is BS when the customer is more qualified than John Deere themselves to fix it.
