[@meinradsigner203]

There is no comparison to a Fendt. I owned a Fendt 201 (45HP) back in Switzerland in the eighties and never forgot how good it was. Then, after immigration to Canada, I had to stick with another green product, till I purchased a Fendt 828 in 2014. Great machine, through an through. It replaced a JD 8850 and does the same work with half the fuel. I can't understand how any farmer could stick to JD any longer. The Fendt has standard features not even available on a JD. Now, with the new president in the USA, I assume there will be a 200% tariff on Fendt and any John Deere built in Mannheim/Germany. If the European union retaliates, John Deere will not be able to sell any large tractors to the European Union. John Deere may get something like a monopoly producing tractors to the US market and please be aware what that may mean to US-farmers. MS

Some of the others ordered one day a week and if you called the day after you had to wait another week to order.

[@eamonryan2198]

Fendt tractors were always a cut above the rest. I saw three Fendt GT tool carriers hard at work one day as I was driving by Coolmoore Stud. These machines had their engines, Deutz air-cooled units, mounted on their sides along with the transmission underneath the cabs. The various tools were fitted to a steel backbone that extended forward of the cab and also had a forward facing three point linkage. The normal tractor models were driven by MWM engines, famous for their reliability and frugality. The bigger tractors were fitted with the Turbomatik, liquid clutch, which allowed the tractor to brake to a stop while remaining in gear. Today, as far as I know, most tractors in the AGCO group are propelled by Sisu engines built in Finland.

[@indianaoutdoors4379]

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.

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.

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.

Fendt are the Rolls Royce of tractor.. Leagues infront of of all the others.. I never owned one but used them. Dogs do-dahs. Built to work.built to last. Built to be operator friendly. German engineering at its best.. I've had friends an customers return John Deere 400hp plus tractors. Within a few days of delivery. To return to the farm to see Fendt had replaced it permeability.. such a shock when a farm turns a different shade of green.. The ones i used were 160hp turbo-matic clutch models.. never sny issues. Small or large their brilliant..

[@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

[@jessesnoeberger7348]

Agco has some good products but dealers support sucks. There is about 5% of dealers in the us that are good dealers the rest are terrible. Agco also kills really good products to replace it with junk.

[@rollinmetzger7392]

The farm I work on has about $6M worth of JD tractors. With that said Fendt tractors are rad!!

[@ndfarmer1702]

I don’t wanna sound too negative but I’ve been around a few fendt’s had them on the farm and have some friends that work on them and… they suck.. that thing probably threw a code while they where going over the brochure and cleared codes 20x to get the video shot. When compared to case, new holland and Deere… I’m sorry you couldn’t pay me to put one of these things on our farm. The 48hr window fix it or replace it .. your going to need a few spares on the lot while the parts are flown in or riding a boat over here cause that thing going to have issues and so will the rental. Our neighbor got a big 2 track spent 10 outta 11 weeks broke sitting in the yard machine was brand new! Are you kidding me?? Sorry to vent in your comments Stan but fendt aka agco doesn’t have anything to sell imo ✌️

[@bondvagabond42]

I live in rural vt, jd started here according to what the locals tell me, so there is big brand loyalty, despite jd hating farmers and fighting right to repair laws so hard. Anyway, all the hobby farmers have these little mahindra size 4x4 jd tractors, and i was jealous, i mean, if a tractor is a mechanical mule, then i coveted my neighbors ass. But i didnt have $10k for a used one. Then my neighbor tried to drop some manure off into my garden, across like a 15° side slope and almost flipped it. I remembered that the old ww2 jeeps could do a 45° side slope, and you can get parts to run ptos and hydraulics just like a real tractor. Ive got $1000 in mine, and essentially have a $10k 4x4 tractor, and a $10k side by side, but with better ground clearance than a modern sxs, and its street legal, and wvery part will be made for it my whole life, ill never be unable to get a part cause the company stopped supporting an old model. Ive got a pto winch for skidding logs, a hydraulic setup for running a snow plow blade, pto in the rear for running a brush hog, Now granted, i grew up on the west coast, and you could not buy a flat fender jeep for $500 like you can in new england, and i did spend a week or two welding pieces of washing machine into all the massive rust holes in the body, cause it was a plow jeep. But as a disabled person with M.S., ive got more time than money. Before i get too decrepit ill make some fork adapters so i can put anything heavy on pallets and not hurt myself moving heavy junk by hand. And i saved $19000

[@timsenjem8337]

I make a couple hundred round bales a year with a 1970’s Allis, still can get parts from the local AGCO dealer when needed.

[@danholmblad9925]

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

[@lyndonhamby7432]

Awesome unit 💪🏻👍🏻

[@garryhancock-the-OG]

The trouble is that there are people who will buy automatically anything with a "made in America" sticker on it rather than seeing what else is out there when sometimes something from outside the USA will suit them better.

[@dodgethis12]

I hope they run JD straight out for business. They want to mess with our farmers, not let them fix their own equipment.

[@dennisdean3925]

I'm sold! So, when is Fendt going to have a dealer network on Colombia, S.A.?

[@scotgarland7526]

Im DONE with John Deere....will NEVER buy another one

[@BigInjun05]

Im ready for one.

[@Johnjames025.9]

4:05 New Holland makes them with cvt, plus front suspension in that size......im sure JD and Case does too

[@Tallhandsomefarmer]

My JD 6125R has IVT and front suspension. these guys are just Fendt fanboys. just look at their faces at 6:08. I want to talk to a farmer who actually uses it.

[@timblack33]

@@Tallhandsomefarmerthis is a 5m sized tractor Small 4 cylinder. The 500 series fendt would be comparable to a 6R deere so they’re technically right even though I’d argue they’re priced out of that segment. I have a 6110R with IVT and TLS, used to sell deere and claas, retired now.

[@shadedude6games]

@@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

[@TBONESIDEOFLIFE]

Starting to feel those Deutz vibes.

[@Dirtmonkey]

😀 yes sir!

[@shadedude6games]

we have two 7 series Fendt they're good tractors will say they hate starting in the cold even plugged in if its not in the shop below -10 forget about it. the potentiometer for the front 3 point is also in a terrible spot exposed to the elements and made of plastic water from the PTO gearbox drips on it while blowing snow and ice builds up we've been through 4 of them other than that easiest tractor to service oil and fuel filter are easy to get to they sip fuel and govt juice and the transmission is wonderful

[@shikra_redkite]

Lots of those special options mentioned are quite standard options over here in Europe. And btw, the loader is not made by Fendt. It's made by the German loader specialist Stoll.

[@zfilmmaker]

I own 11 Fendts, I used to own Deere. The issue with Fendt… few people can afford them. There are not that many used compared to Deere and more farmers are budget shoppers.

[@LocalJunkRemoval2189]

want to see more like this with that guy

[@josephvanderlaan159]

Fendts are the best 😎

[@cprllm2012]

I like a tractor that is easy to work on. The more computers you have, the more trouble you will have at some point. I bought a 1998 kubota and I love it. The ole shuttle shifter for me! While you wait for a computer tech, i will be getting the work done!! I love new machines, i just dislike too much computerization!!

[@frederickburns1739]

Whistles and Bells mean more sensors which mean more electrical problems!!! Technology is good but it comes at a cost!!! And if you don't have a good PM SYSTEM in place you'll pay the price!!!

[@TrackerRoo]

My Grandpa says "It's got all the bells and whistles but none of the ones we want."

[@marcuslauver7866]

Also what an enormous pile of horse manure!!! Fendt hold their value????? When did that start?

[@gerhardma4297]

This is the case in Europe. In the USA, in a country where very few people pull their heads out of their asses and take a look around, it will be the same. Because quality and reliability prevail even there... it just takes longer with prejudiced and ignorant people.

[@farmerjacob]

Fendt holds really its value, this model fendt is new 110K , even with 8000 hours its still valued 50 to 70 K, its insane. a fendt easily exceeds 12 000 hours

[@marcuslauver7866]

@@farmerjacob 12,000 hours?? What a joke. I have deeres here with over 19,000 hours and never a wrench on the engine. And just to be clear. Fendt does not hold their value

[@farmerjacob]

@@marcuslauver7866 i understand the americans love their deeres, here really not. All the biggest contractors drive fendt. The terrible fuel consumption, , the immense headaches to make systems connect with machinery for planters, manure and what not its not worth the hassle. Fendt is the way to go

[@MatthewWilliams-b1m]

Like that the front hitch can work with the front end loader.

[@georgedoolittle7574]

Still would take the now Mercedes-Benz owned for a long time Unimog although everyone loves those things now so the price has gone through the roof so maybe a Ford 9N in the interim..

[@daronsmith2229]

Crap! Ok, I’ve been a JD guy for 25 years. I currently own a 5075 as well as a 5090R. Great machines and i don’t need to change right now BUT, ive been so frustrated at corporate JD’s treatment of their customers that this is tempting… My only concerns would be where could i find service support and where could i find parts?

[@JB.Olsen7]

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.

[@CameronWWE123]

We only purchase JD

[@johnbodman4504]

As an Australian I believe the Fendt is a great tractor, but I also know that German industry is on the back foot since Biden destroyed Nord Stream. If Fendt is a company that is badly affected by the loss of pipeline oil, then it might not be able to provide parts, when required. I would buy New Holland, which is a great Italian tractor.
