Found your channel recently and have to say love it! Keep up the good work!! Still don’t know how u harvest all day and then still pump out the vids almost everyday!? 😲 I was helping with harvest last fall but not this year, kinda miss it although not the 16h days haha We were using the haulmaster which was a slick unit! I grew up in southern Manitoba and did not know that is where they were made! haha

[@dans_Learning_Curve]

Laura, your farming knowledge is impressive! Congratulations on your successful KZbin channel! You keep it real, fun, and entertaining!

[@floorpizza8074]

That 8RX is just a beautiful machine. Sure, there's bigger ones, but not any that are better looking. I'm 54 and retired. I'd come out there and drive that 8RX for you guys for free. So cool of AKRS to set you up with that demo.

Just wait till John Deere comes out with their "Laura Farms" signature edition. Has Laura Farms right under the John Deere logo. Has mounts for camera shots. :-) Great video today folks. Have a fantabulous weekend!

That clip of the semi spinning out is a good example for people who say "why do you even need grain carts, just run the semis to the combine!" Semis do very, very poorly when it starts getting schloppy wet. In places like where the Welkers farm it's possible because they practically live in a desert. Places where it rains? Not so much.

[@jeffslaven]

Wow! What a joy it must be to run that rig! Looking forward to seeing it in future videos!

[@goddess_bree]

honestly, wish that tractor existed back when I still did farm work.... ♥

[@dougdemaree1963]

When I grow up I want to buy a John Deere 4020 Diesel from AKRS........any model year is fine......they are gorgeous......Thanks for the videos........Amazing how good the 4020s are and they are fifty years old......AKRS will get my business because they are so good to Laura and Grant....

[@alkennedy1124]

Ok I can maybe help out with the stuck truck, 3 rd 4 th gear will pull you out of places a lot easier, low gears put to much horsepower on the ground ok,when you put to much power it just spins, ok try it , you will see thanks , I learned it with bellybuttom dumps, neck named belly dumps, you don’t always need you diff locks , sometimes you can get you self out of a wet place or somewhere else, lol nice thanks BigAl California praise Jesus grace Christ amen 🙏.

Great video ! That equipment has to make the long day not as fatigueing for you. That equipment is truly incredible-as I am sure, is the price tag ! Thank you again for an informative video, your positivity and that absolutely beautiful smile ! You light up this world, and make my day have a great start.

[@mikechaplin1566]

Is that why you don't load from the combine directly into the truck, eliminating the grain cart??? Because it would get stuck?

[@vk2ig]

Can you imagine the work involved in unbogging a truck full of grain - it would be real headache.

[@steyr430]

Can we please talk about the CASE tractor shown multiple times in the background!!!!!!

[@Kanjo16]

They need to put air horns on those things. That little "beep beep" was pathetic. :)

[@stevehorton2003]

It's great that equipment manufacturers like John Deere are putting such effort into making their control stations more ergonomic. Unfortunately they ignore the 10% or so of the population that is left handed. So often these newer designs are actually less ergonomic for lefties than more traditional controls. Granted, left handed people are used to living in a right handed world, and for the most part we adapt to using right handed items like power tools. But it isn't always efficient or even safe (I don't know how many times I have accidentally locked my electric drill on at full speed because the the horrible position of the trigger lock when I use it left handed.) It would be great if John Deere (and others) would design their control stations with a simple series of quick disconnect plugs, so that aftermarket manufacturers could market easy-to-install left handed joysticks and controls.

[@markp.7165]

Someone asked why do you use a grain cart instead of just unloading the combine into the truck? Would this truck being stuck not be at least part of the reason? Trucks are not meant to be run into wet field.

[@brianjansen3513]

What a great rig. Looks best with you two in it.

[@BigRed-ob7do]

Laura I notice you still have all the draw strings in your hoodies and jackets, I know most farmers remove these because of all the pto's and other high speed spinning things you work around why don't you have yours removed?

What kind of red tractor is in the background?

[@yurizhivago4848]

I live in Manitoba where they build them along with Mac Don headers and swathers and Versatile tractors. LOTS of huge grain farming in Western Canada so Elmer's definitely has a market. They just released a monster 2300 bushel version of that cart. I really enjoyed you showing how it floats over the field and how there is very little compaction. Had a Bobcat crush my lawn and it is no fun trying to fix that later so I know all about compaction.

[@philstreeter9703]

Laura, you have an amazing young lady. Your enthusiasm is infectious. I'm trying to get caught up with your videos. Keep it up.😀

[@williamking2249]

Great video some really awesome footage. 8RX and the Haul master combo. Great job John Deere. 🇺🇸👍

Dang. These tractors look like frickin space ships on the inside. Super cool tech.

When Laura presses that one button, it makes the same exact sound that the DeLorean time travel machine did in "Back To the Future" after Marty or Doc punched in the new go to date!

[@rodneyflohr3662]

Till it breaks and the techs don't know how to fix it,

[@vk2ig]

@@rodneyflohr3662 That's why techs need to keep on learning. This equipment will get only more and more hi-tech, and the techs who will survive this period of change will be the ones who aren't scared to open books, watch videos, or even take classes to learn about the new gear.

How do the tracks ride on the road compared to tires??

The combine you took your Grandma in was a 7230, but your Dad was using an 8250 in this video. I don't understand anything about combines, but really enjoy watching your channel.

[@dtktrucker]

My favorite feature of the 8RX is the driver.

[@darrenkayes7911]

Looks like Dad is getting a few demos of his own, Case Magnum and an 8250 fun times👍

[@markp.7165]

Question: Are the tracks on the grain cart just rolling or are they powered?

[@tonyschulz3558]

They aren’t powered. It’s a free spin type deal with an axle to allow the tracks to pivot on uneven terrain. Its brakes are hydraulically operated, I believe

[@jarrodwemhoff7270]

Husker harvest days,,, you’ll be so much happier with a right hand unload... till it’s backwards to the other cart and the way everything is setup.

[@timslager5966]

Nice camera work Grant, thanks for demoing the tractor and cart Laura! 👍👍Greetings from NH

[@kennethfeld6639]

That 8RX has a nifty feature - the key can also act as a push button. If you just turn the key to start, then release it to run, the tractor will keep cranking until it starts like a modern car with a push button start.

[@ohespeh]

How wide are the Tracks of the 8RX ? looks in european Eyes over 8 Feet ? For the Rest of the World 2,4 m

[@cougerarm1]

Are those tracks the 16" or 18" wide on the tractor? I'm curious how they track in the ridge, does it track straight or seem like it wants to climb up out of the bottom of the ridge? I'm a fellow ridge tiller and am considering this tractor for planting and cultivating.

[@zdog90210]

If you're doing 6 gallons per hour in my pickup truck gets around 10 miles to the gallon on the highway and I would drive for an hour I would use 6 gallons wow that tractor seems efficient

[@stephenarmstrong3265]

Why would you need separate storage, when you know how much is harvested from your field and your father's field? Isn't the percentages of cost and loss of product be the same when you sell?

[@davidpoynter6546]

Excellent job showcasing the tractor and grain cart. They should give it to you. But, Laura you’re going to have to let the hubby drive it at least one time. He looks like a little boy who’s dying to play with the latest toy.

[@backcountryshitok]

Serious question . Why don't you guys use 4x4 semis like they have in the patch or for logging. I've seen a stuck semi on every farm vlog this season

[@tyler3148]

You looked cute with ur hood all up lol….. reminds me of Kenny from South Park.. don’t die and come back in the next episode haahah

[@rockandrattleretreat5830]

When I was growing up we did not even have a cabbed tractor, you glossed over the standard controls, alls we had was a clutch, shifter, throttle and brakes, maybe three point hich. What are the standard controls on a tractor now a days?

[@vk2ig]

Good question. I think in previous videos Laura has explained the controls, but it was quite a while ago.

[@paul2466]

The tractor on the intro needs tracks, just curious Elmer’s cart and 8rx…more than 1.5 million?.

Just for grin and chuckles, my wife has the long hair problems, she take a tube sock and put the pony tail in it, and use a scrunchie to hold everything together, it looks funny but it beatswear ing a hoodie or hooded jacket in good, but breezy weather

With all the debris in the field while doing corn, have you ever looked into stalk stompers to save wear on the tires from running them over the stalks?

Still not convinced on the hole right vs left side unload augur, never ran a right side so maybe one day when I do I will be like why we did not get one sooner. But l have never had a problem with unloading on the left side so I don't get why one would be better over the other.

Just have to watch how sharp you turn to not tear the ground up but with 4 tracks it won't be like a dozer when you turn

[@chaserviper]

So is the turning radius wider with tracks being on the tractor and also do you have to replace the tracks more often versus using tires?

Laura, you know you're gonna end up buying that tractor and cart!

[@danfinley3690]

Wow what beast of equipment thanks for the video good to see grant

[@BacktoLifeMD]

Great idea to distribute the weight of heavy equipment so that it doesn't compact the soil as much. Loose soil is healthier, allowing the microorganisms and worms to do their job of adding the nutrients back to the soil.
