Hi, this is Kelly Garrett from XtremeAg. Really excited to be at the DeYoung Farm today in St. Ann, Illinois, trying out the Momentum planter, the Fendt tractors.
00:00:08
Travis, since we met at Farm Progress last year, some big things have really happened here. When we've started this conversation, you replaced
00:00:15
three tractors with three new Fends. Can you tell me why that happened? One of the biggest things would be ease of use within the cab and the
00:00:25
hydraulics side of things within these tractors. Programming hydraulics to their joystick as far as facts for the planter. Our PTO alternators, we
00:00:35
can program it to all one button. So your start functions are super simple. No clicking individual SCVs, clicking everything on the manual way.
00:00:43
We press one button, everything turns on, then hit another button, everything shuts off and automatically goes into float.
00:00:50
So from an operating standpoint, just super easy that way. The comfortability of the cabs,
00:00:56
the multiple displays, tons of room inside the cab, and then same with the other features for programming stuff. It's just everything very simple and easy to use.
00:01:05
Well, that makes a lot of sense, you being the operator, that that is your favorite feature. I could see that, and you're right, that is a big advantage.
00:01:11
In talking to your dad off-camera, I know that the improved fuel efficiency that you're seeing out of the Fends is his biggest feature.
00:01:18
This is Kelly Dezarn of Kuhn's Equipment, the DeYoung salesperson. This is the first edition of the "Kelly and Kelly" show right here.
00:01:25
Did we just become best friends? I think we're best friends. Kelly, Travis talked about the ease of use.
00:01:32
Scott's talking about the fuel economy. I also know Scott's excited about the warranty. Can you tell us about the Fendt warranty?
00:01:37
Man, absolutely. Kuhn's is very happy to be on this farm, number one, because it's just to be able to share their
00:01:44
experience with ours. But with the Gold Star warranty is top-notch. So with that being said, they get full maintenance and everything. Scott really knows, and Scott and Travis both really
00:01:56
know, what their fixed cost is going to be. For three years, they know where they're going to be. We're going to take care of them all the way through.
00:02:03
And with that being said, with our services, with their full bumper-to-bumper warranty, that's just top-notch.
00:02:10
And that's what Fendt brings to the table for them. And they're seeing the results now with fuel efficiency going, and then it's with $6 fuel. This is crazy.
00:02:19
And with them going in here and really saving their fuel, they're already starting to see it when they're running all day and they just have
00:02:26
a quarter tank. That's all they burn. So that's a really big deal for them. Yeah, with the escalating costs that we have in today's economy, all of this
00:02:35
efficiency really adds up at the end of the day, and it really shows why DeYoung's 00:02:39.140 --> 00:02:40.260
