Slicker than a Yes album. | Yes, great experience. Gold key tours are treated very well, the best part for me was seeing the inside of the HQ in Moline. (Where lunch is served). If you can, go on the morning tour, you see some parts the afternoon one doesn't. (Like the header building, loading dock.)
We also found the cemetery where the Deere family is buried. Many early "big" names are nearby. Velie, Butterworth, etc. Toured Lock and Dam #13(?), interesting to see. The Charles and Patricia Deere home is something to see. I've never seen so much walnut paneling upstairs and down!
Forgot to add earlier, bring a picture of that prototype Deere combine and ask upper level management about it! See what kind of info you can glean for us.
