Love that Cummins diesel sound. Spent 2 summers in a 2166 on a wheat harvest crew in late 90s. Thank you for the video.

Nice footage. I ran a 1460 for a long time here on small grains and now run a 2388. My brother still runs a 2166. Everything the operator said about service and maintenance is correct. I believe that was the competitive edge that case had over other brands of the same era. Being able to rebuild your own machinery when needed is a huge benefit to the small family farm.👍🇦🇺

2166 may be the best combine ever built

I love seeing a 6 row corn head. It’s underrated for what it’s worth. We have a drago 6 row corn head for our gleaner s 96. It’s easy to move, easy to put away, easy to turn around, and doesn’t take up a lot of room on the road.

Great machine! Ran one since 2000 and upgraded this year to 7130. Miss the ole girl with that Cummins. Never let us down!

We have this combine and out of all combines we’ve had this is my favorite one to operate.

Our neighbor had a ih 1660 great combine but was showing its age so they bought one of these with hardly any hours just two years ago. It’s really pounds through grain. I really enjoy the harvest vids. Wish my grandpa didn’t get out crop farming a couple years ago. He had a 9500 jd. But at-least we still do hay!

Watching harvest videos in January. VERY NICE!!👍👍

Those were some good combines. We had one new in 95 and it was a dream to run

[connordanielson]

I work for a local farm here in Minnesota and we use a 2166 just like the one in the video to harvest corn and soybeans.

[JasonShipley]

Another great video!! Keep them coming

[harrydoyle]

I'm a Deere guy though and through. But when this series came out, Deere knew they had a problem. There were a lot of Deere combine guys in my area that switched from 9500s or 9600s to these. Solid combines.

Great Video, Love the Steiger Tractor & CaseIH 2166.

We used to run a 2166 with a 25 foot head with a 6 row 30 inch corn head we also used a 1660 with a 20 foot head and a 6 row 30 inch we got rid of them when we had to sell the farm
