I like the 5 series and newer for the larger unload auger and improved cab. It will empty that big bin quite quickly. The 06 and newer has the sisu engine in it which is a fine engine. I have ran an 06 R75. The 08 and newer combines have an improved feeder house floor design which can be added to older machines. The most important thing with the Gleaner machines is to have the rotor set up for you conditions. For example whether or not you need reverse bars and the helicals. On some of the first sisu powered machines, they came out with the incorrect programming in the R75 so they had less power. My brothers machine was like that. With stripper headers, I do not think you need the 75 because less material in the machine. I have run an R75 with a 40 foot MacDon FD70 on it. It was all the header that combine wanted but it did work fairly well.
