I can't say for sure about YOU, but when I respond to a post, I've ALREADY read it. I have NO problems with reading comprehension skills.
That said, And with the additional "information" in your second post, I'm sure your theory doesn't hold water. You're looking at 20 years ago as it relates to present day.
Your "numbers" are "perfect world" and not typical of long term averages. You CANNOT base a long term investment on one or two good years, when averages based on many years tell you that this year is more of an anomaly. That sort of thinking is why a lot of fundamentally good farmers got flushed out of the game in the '80's.
It amazes me when I hear people who make an average income think they can OUT THINK corporations that have made BILLIONS for well over a hundred years of business. Deere, for all the good things and all the BAD things anyone can say about them, have proven to be way ahead of the curve in operating a successful business. They aren't anyone's fools.... If there was a PROFITABLE market for small to mid-sized combines, and with their large scale production capabilities, Deere would be front and center with one. Do you really think they'd pass on an opportunity to capitalize on a market that they're well equipped to dominate? Sure, they MIGHT sell a few, but Deere isn't obligated to produce what would be a virtual monet pit for them and their shareholders, based on some "fuzzy math" by someone who obviously doesn't fully understand all that would be involved in marketing a limited production "niche market" combine.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
