Wow, I thought those combines were WAY more than that.

These are all 4-5 year old machines. And a 670 is smaller sized machine. The 2019 S790's on tracks with 300 hours are going for $550k on the used market and rumor is that a well set up new X9 1100 will be north of $700k for 2021 delivery.

That's more in line with what I was thinking. I'm in SC and a few years ago in Columbia SC had a "1000 year flood" I knew a farmer who lost two in the same month. One to a fire and one to the flood. Yikes.

that's just the machine. doesn't include any heads.
add on another six figures for whatever attachments you need to actually make it harvest your crops.

I'm sure that dude being drunk will probably negate it, but yeah, there's insurance if your shit catches fire in a field and burns to the ground.
happens. I know someone that lost a two year old red machine last year to fire.

fucker burnt down in minutes.

Yes, I paused at a few spots, wrapped around neck. Also seems like the kid was moving arms around and stuff at first, but near the end I think he stopped moving.

Hope the kid was ok. Poor kid.

According to the news the kid was physically ok after the ride, rope must have been wrapped around something other than his neck.
