Many of you know that there are now draper headers available and they are supposed to be "all that!" Wow, what a great NEW idea...! NOT! I have always thought that the even, head first, gentle feed into the thrasher like the old pull types did was better. So you All-Crop owners are "ahead of your time", again! What kills me is on the AGCO site they have a page about these headers with about 4 videos about them. You would think on at least one of them you would see the header in action. Instead all you see is the gums flapping of customers and sales reps. Did they ever hear of something called a "voiceover"? What a dumbass marketing department! And as I heard one customer all decked out in AGCO bling how excited he was over his DT order, I thought, "poor sap!"

Tom, when my father saw a draper header on a CaseIH the neighbors had a few years back, he laughed and said it looks like we have "made a full circle" again!!! Ryan
