I’m a former truck driver,,,suggestion,,,while you are in the field press the blue button under “D” and that will put you in manual shift mode,,,after you get the truck rolling then press the up arrow to shift it into 2nd gear and it will stay in that gear until you press the up or down button,,,,after you pull out on the road then press “D” which will return the transmission back into automatic shifting

I have driven a 3 pedal automatic like yours and can offer some tips. When you are heavy in the field, select m (manual) and use the up and down arrows to shift. That way the shift holds no matter the throttle setting.

Also be aware that in a wet field, you are more apt to get stuck. Especially with an empty trailer. Try to use that manual up and down shift with the lockers engaged. DO NOT forget to turn the locker off on dry pavement. Practice makes better.

Thanks Laura nice to see how your farming operation works as a retired truck driver can I say when you are driving the manual just relax a bit the gears slide easier if you don't push the shifter ,and in the Auto drive it manually select manual and just pick your gears ,but we all had to learn so keep practicing Kid. Really enjoying this Harvest content ,so interesting ,Thank you Kym Adelaide

Other than sneezing on your videos, (which I find hysterical), that truck restart was easily one of the more priceless reactions on your face. Reminded me of the below zero blizzards of my youth in WI when it took everything in the world to get the frozen engine/transmission in a 1974 Buick to turn over. Most horrible feeling when your vehicle stalls out at the worst possible time and place. Clearly, you have the magic touch, Laura. Nothing more attractive in a woman than her confidence.

Pro tip for you. the high/low range will only happen when you pass through neutral. So, in 5th going to 6th, go ahead and move to high range before you actually shift. It makes finding that gate easier as your fingers aren't busy with other things.

Laura and Grant, A thoroughly enjoyable harvest episode... With drama of the non-starting diesel with an airlock(?), then stalling the truck on the road, and then the look of sheer terror 😬😰on Laura's beautiful face, waiting with huge suspense for it to start (she cranks well of course with a brand new battery), smooth stick shifting, a BNSF train switching on the tracks, Laura spilling a few kernels at the Co-Op, and Grant, a HUGE pile, LOL, that cracked me up!! A big undulating paddock of cut corn, tractors and trucks all around lit up with their lights, a beautiful southern Nebraska sunset, and finally, just the cutest tiny kittens 😸cuddling together! - Just perfect to watch after a day at work. Thank you so much!!! 😄 Blessings from way down south in NZL, David ❤

There should be a "Manual Mode" for your automatic transmission. When you're driving at relatively low speed around the farm, it will probably be easier for you to leave it in "Manual" and do your shifting (Up and Down arrows) manually by watching the truck's rpm. Upshift around 1400 rpm (this will vary from truck to truck; 1400 is usually a good place to start) and downshift around 1600. You'll get the hang of it with a little practice.😉

Driving in the fog and wet fields, got towed a few times. Seeing the wildlife, how things are run, hauling to the dairys' and no one is around. Just quiet and peaceful! You guys have the life! Did some sloppy math, around 600-700 million lbs.

Don't you worry Laura, I was a driver for 13 years OTR, and once I got my solo status, it was still maybe a year and a half before I felt completely competent and comfortable with my skills and abilities. So, just be patient with yourself. You're doing great. I'll offer a little advice. Don't be so concerned with how you are driving, just drive. When you spend too much time stressing about things such as this, you'll improve very little. Just consider it as more practice, and proficiency will come. Nervousness fades over time. I did that, and it worked well for me. You're a very good driver, I can see it. So don't worry. Anyway, I've been watching your posts for a few years now I guess, and today I just became a subscriber to your channel. I really enjoy your content and other farmers as well. I grew up on a farm as a kid in South Eastern Iowa, near Fort Madison, and I miss it so much, you don't even know. I would love to work on another farm, and possibly one day own or lease my own. So with all of that, I wish you all (y'all's) all the best, and God Bless!!!! 🚜

Actually, I think you are "jumping in the deep end of the pool" by driving semi-trucks so early in your farming career; and I am impressed. I only drove straight, grain trucks with fully-synchronized transmissions for many years as a farmer before operating trailer trucks. I remember when that ethanol plant was built when I went by it to deliver with my semi-truck west of Aurora,

If the jerking of the shifting gears is sliding your seat forward and back, there should be a lever/handle to flip, which will lock your seat into a solid position. The purpose of this option is to save your back and legs while on the road to slide with the bumps in the road. Just don't leave it locked in place all the time, or it will eventually leave a detent/wear spot and won't slide smoothly.

What a great video! Good shifting. When I was 5, I drove for the binder, helped stook the sheaves and drove the wagon for the sheaves to be thrown on the wagon and mowed. We took them to the threshing machine which blew the straw into the mow and the grain into the grainery.

Thanks for another great video Laura and Grant and gage. It was interesting and enjoyable. I have a suggestion for you on your truck. Leave it running if you are going to use it right away. Turning a diesel off and on for short periods can cause problems like you had. Just leave it idle. It will be fine. Just a suggestion. Nice to set gage on camera a bit more. Fine young man for his age. You are lucky to have him on the team. Running the auto shifts takes getting use too. There is a blue button I believe that you can divert the auto shift in and out of manual mode. Not real sure about that. Look in the book or ask a driver that knows the auto shift. Nice meal you fixed Laura. Harvest meals are the best. Need that energy. Working late in this video. That is harvest time for you. Teamwork and putting in the hours gets it done. Hang in there all of you. About it I guess. Thanks for everything Laura. You all take care and be safe. The Iowa Farm Boy. Steve.

What do pro truck drivers think on this system. Do they get angry when stuck/shearing the road with drivers who are inexperienced and don't have a license. Or is it a not issue. In my country you need a license regardless but you can drive on a international truck license. This upsets most local truckers because the overseas drivers just don't have the driving experience to be driving the big trucks and to make it worse they don't speak the same language so accidents are becoming more frequent.

No windows? I would say that must have been a lemon. Who ever heard of a vehicle without windows? I hope you've given it back and demanded satisfaction?

I love y’all, and it’s wonderful to see hard working young people in America, but it’s time to take a stand on the monstrous attacks in Israel. Babies should not be beheaded. You are great with words. You can say it in 15 seconds with your gift of speaking. God bless America, God bless Israel, and God bless you and Grant.

Great video of the continuing harvest season! Having Gage in the video is such a great addition to the team! You're doing a great job driving and when flipping the switch for high range can be done while in 5th gear b4 going into 6th. Certainly enjoying your videos back here in Laurel, Delaware and appreciate your PRICELESS time and effort! Wish i was there to drive a truck hauling for you guys! My labor limit is very affordable 😂😂😂😂.

learn about the transmission mode button. you can "lock" the transmission into one gear. also you need your heal on the floor to stop the bucking. Great job.

Awesome video, keep them coming. It is great that you find the time and show the bad as well as the good. I farm in England and can relate to your problems as well as the great feeling when you get a good harvest. It is nice to see that you value your employees and recognize the value they provide you. Hope it is a successful harvest for you.

Thanks for sharing all that happens during harvest time -- the good things AND the challenges to overcome. Love the concluding peaceful "end of day" scenery too. One thought to consider: you do very well with the manual shifting on the semis -- when switching the Hi/Lo range selector ("flipper button" on the stick), it's best to change it BEFORE you shift into neutral/next gear. You can switch it up and stay in low range as long as you want (if you know you will be upshifting next). The air actuators just become pre-charged to make that range shift -- but nothing will happen until you shift through Neutral -- THEN the range shift changes immediately. This makes changing gears easier in that transition from Lo range to Hi range. Pre-select the range change when you know what you will need next. When it comes to the newer automatics... well, I'm pretty old-school, and can't say much here (although I have lots of thoughts/concerns about the current direction of the trucking industry). Keep sharing your videos -- your successes and challenges. I learn so much from every one of them.

Great Job shifting Laura!! Couple of tips....If you don't know, your manual trucks have a clutch brake for getting into gear at a dead standstill. Push clutch to the floor, wait a second then put in gear. to get into gear, with out grinding, when stopped. If doesn't go in easily, don't force it, just let up a hair on the clutch with slight pressure on shifter, it'll go in like butter. Then you can raise clutch to that sweet spot just before it engages, in gear, and be ready to go from there. If you use the clutch to shift when moving ( which you know already , you don't have to) you don't need to go down all the way on each shift, only from a stand still, to get moving. It will actually damage things over time if you push it down all the way all the time and constantly engage the clutch brake. You should move the hi-low selector to desired position before disengaging previous gear ( before crossing neutral, to next gear ) Either up or down shifting. So if your in low 4, and going to a higher gear, just flip it up while still in gear, it won't change until you move the shift lever out of that gear. It will shift faster, smoother, and won't hurt anything. Same when downshifting. Just keep on truckin, the more stick time the better and more comfortable you'll get.

That was a very good video. My Buddy down the long road is harvesting his 700 acres of Sweet Corn. I told him I was about out of corn in the freezer he said he would drop a load in my front yard. I said "Yea Right" but he did say "come get ya some". I really like your channel. Now he has to ship the corn everywhere. I think Food Grade Corn is totally different. Some get stripped like you are doing and some are whole corn. His Corn sure is good for Cooking. He has a Devastator on his combines but like you say you have to watch for rocks. He found a nice 13" Meteor with a big hole in the field last year and has turned down offers for it. They dug it out with a Backhoe.

Favorite LauraFarms video ever. Idk if yall got a new camera, or just got lucky with lighting, but every shot looked AAMAZING!! The sunset/golden hour especially. And don't take this the wrong way, but even Laura needs to thank the camera, she was looking extra beautiful in this video.... although it could also be the fact that a girl driving a truck is always kinda hot, lol. Grant, I mean that in the most respectful way possible, please don't kill me, lol. I'm just reminding you of what an amazing gift God has blessed you with, she seems absolutely awesome. But on top of the beautiful shots in the field, the sounds of the truck when Laura was showing us her shifting was also so beautiful, such a good sounding rig. There's so much to love about this video, my favorite probabaly being her look of surprise when the truck started, lmao.
