Deere is selling so many new tracked tractors that the company that makes the tracks built a building just for making them. Case quadtracs that were bought for this spring are so far backed up that local dealers have tractors coming in summer. Local place has several stores and I guess they sold 50 of the case ones.
We have a 60 foot planter ordered that was in the first week Deere took orders and the dealer said he hopes its here at the end of April. I want to use it before that!
I follow a guy named Machinery Pete that keeps track of prices and weekly he is posting a record price for a used tractor. Its crazy

I'm keeping my old junk and just continue driving them :grin: I don't want no stinkin new car..

I was talking with some guys that work in the Deere DB planter factory and they were telling me that their so back logged with 120' planters they can volunteer to work Sundays. With the input cost rising faster than corn price I cant imagine how long this can hold out?

The planter I am waiting on is DB60 soybean planter. Dealer said they cant get parts. I said why with deeres foundrys are they making parts in China
