Northeast Louisiana | We had a neighbor that went from a 9610 to a 2388 this year and really likes the new combine. Surprised me as he has always bled green. I showed him how to set some things, as he had no experience with a rotor machine. We set it up quickly in soybeans, and he asked, "Is that it?" When he saw the sample in the tank, he was very happy.
I think both wear out components pretty quickly, mainly because there is so much more grain going through them per hour.
As far as headers go, I haven't used the 2020 header, but I think the JD's are probably better than the 1020. I was never impressed with it and eventually went to a 1052 draper for soybeans, rice, and wheat.
Most folks like the CIH corn heads, they do a much better job of cutting stalks down. I know of a couple of JD machines running red corn heads.
