Cole, as an electrician in a rural area the most rewarding short notice calls I've gone to were all on farms. Nothing makes a guy feel more valuable than helping out some of the hardest working people on the planet. My first year I spent 4 hours just keeping cow 1087 from eating our tools or the shirt of my journeyman. I'll never forget that ear tag.

Was a 'on call' repairman before my back gave out on me. Sent many of hours working after normal work hours keeping my customers rolling. Got out of a warm cozy bed to go out in the snow and cold to fix trucks on the side of the road. Enjoy every minute of it. Mechanics keep the world moving. Hats off to them.

Good mechanics sell more tractors than salesman do. Whatever keeps the wheels rolling determines the color of the machine. Hat's off indeed. #hiddenheros

That was fortunate that the tractor didn't have more damage to it, even catching on fire. Great to hear the mechanic got out so quick, that was awesome. I hope all else goes good with the rest of your plantings. Have a good afternoon!

We subscribe to and enjoy watching a number of farm and ranch vlogs but I am so impressed with how healthy, sleek and shiny the Sonne Farms cattle always look. Well, minus the mud and dust they love to roll in from time to time. 😊 I love to see the attention and interaction you and your dad have with your animals. It really shows in how great they look. We look forward to watching every new post and enjoy how much fun you and your dad have with one another. Makes us feel good! Thanks for sharing.

I like how you respect service techs. I just bought a used McHale V660 baler and the “local” ACI rep was in Mississippi and drove 7 hours to get us in East Tennessee so that the first use and set up would be flawless. Would not take a dime from me for all of his time and efforts. I’m impressed with the baler but having that kind of support is incredible. Very Rare indeed!!

Thanks for another great video Cole and Brian. It was interesting and enjoyable. Cole you did a fantastic job of getting to the field with the fire extinguisher. Lucky you did not need it. Seems funny that the grease fitting is hidden behind that plastic cover. I would highly recommend fire extinguishers in all of your equipment. Cheap insurance to save a piece of equipment. You got there quick. Good job Cole. My compliments to your dealer for coming right away after hours to fix the tractor. Appreciate that kind of service. Your pastures look amazing with nice tall green grass. Do great this year. Your cows will love that pasture. Good going Cole spotting that calf needing some medicine. Good shot with the air gun. Sonny really likes to play tag with the other dog. He is really growing bigger. Cute. Nice job moving the cows and calf’s to the pasture. Teamwork made it go easy. Nice. You about have all of your corn in the ground. Soybeans are up next I guess. Go get em. About it for now. You both take care and be safe. And put fire extinguisher in equipment. Thanks for everything. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
