“Everyone knows that rainfall is essential to successful crops, but too much of a good thing can mean big problems during harvest time. Last year we had extremely wet conditions. We knew we needed something that would be dependable in these types of situations.”

“I chose the LEXION 575R with the Mobil-Trac™ System. The rear-wheel drive and tracks on this machine are exceptional. They’ve worked great every time we’ve had it in the field. Farming 5,000 acres of soybeans and corn, we can’t afford to lose time getting stuck. Between the tracks and the Cat engine, we were in good shape with the LEXION. I love the power. That’s key – a combine that has plenty of power.”

“But it's not only about the tracks and power for me. What’s interesting with the LEXION is that the capacity is much bigger, but it uses less fuel.”

“Service has been great as well, even unexpected. We had someone out in our fields from CLAAS on the first day we harvested corn and the first day of beans, just to make sure we had all our settings how we wanted them. Now I can adjust almost everything from inside the cab, and I love that. This machine completely met all my expectations.”
