...I find this really interesting... here is another for comparision.

Bing Maps

Ths is CNH's primary hay equipment plant (its 20 minutes from me)... huge place.
Upper right is R&D fab. South East is corporate offices, South West is R&D offices. North is the training center.

This picture is pretty old, you can see the steal from the new paint line they just put in.

Andy,

You've posted three really good zingers in this thread, but you haven't had any response from the JD fans.

I have two competing hypotheses.
1. The JD fans are above this sort of thing and will not respond in kind.
2. The JD fans are slow on the uptake and don't realize they are being poked.

I will not comment on which of the two I think best describes the situation.

Well, at least I didn't buy some thing that was built/assembled/made in China

Crazy isn't it! Thats about 20 min from me. Largest auto auction in the world. I've been in during the auction before. Its amazing. I saw Hertz sell 40-50 rental cars in 2-4 seconds each.

They've been trying to expand that for awhile too.

It's funny, they have all those tractors sitting there but dealers can hardly get! That is Augusta where all of the deluxe 3000's and 4000's are assembled.

The guy that said everything under 200 hp is from Japan is definitely wrong.

My own 3520 was built with parts from all over the world in Augusta, Georgia, and shipped from there to France which made it very expensive and not totally compatible with local safety regulations. Pity they don't produce them in Germany with the big ones.

The Bing maps images are at least 4 years old. I looked at my property. The house next to me was started in 2007 and does not show on the images. It still shows bare property.
