Smokey, Snowy Truck Cold Start

If you're wondering why my posts haven't been as often, thats because things just naturally slow down in the wintertime! I have been spending long hours in the office, and time with family. I appreciate your understanding and for sticking around. love showing you what I do everyday, and am looking forward to doing that through this coming year. Planting is just around the corner! Should we plant with the LSW tires, or change them out for the duals? Any suggestions for a good brand of row sweeps/row closers?

Grant, it is NEVER "I", it's always "We". Laura doesn't miss anything. Great video, thank you!🇺🇸

[@jimmyjenkins9240]

Laura and Grant, IMO, there are many reasons your vlogs stand out from other farm vlogs. We actually get to see you two working, discussing and figuring things out. You let know why you do things today and how it prepares you for what’s to come. We also get to see how you genuinely care for one another and how well you work together. You guys are educational and most enjoyable.

[@greywolfwalking6359]

Indeed, 👍🐺🧙‍♂️🦊👍!!

[@johnwyoder]

Well said! 👊

[@tomdowd6728]

And it’s clear they respect each others knowledge and skills!

[@jmit5650]

I love the look of the big tires on the tractor, but small tires for planting. Great videos.

[@carlosguvetis9347]

You guys, along with all the other farmers are so appreciated!

[@carlosguvetis9347]

As a non-farmer, I can't begin to tell you how much I appreciate you guys for being farmers.

[@ipilot642]

Put the tires on that will fit in the rows since you'll have to put them on later, thereby saving lots of time later changing them when you may have more important things to do.

[@jeremyvoight5840]

Totally agree do it now then when it's down time instead of when in a hurry

[@petersmulders8058]

Yer planter doesn't look too heavy so traction shouldn't be a problem

[@markevans9275]

Another tip when changing the oil, always fill the filters with clean oil when you install them. Your engine will love you for it.

[@barrygrant2907]

One vote for going ahead and changing the tires.

[@davidlabedz2046]

We support farmers! Young farmers like you and Grant are the future for all of us!

[@kirklothert3435]

Damn straight. We all need farmers

[@darrylphipps2221]

Love Laura Farms video's 👁️❤️👁️❤️👁️❤️👁️❤️👁️❤️👁️❤️👁️

[@WS-qn8dg]

Change the tires for planting. Compaction and balancing the planter will be more dificult when the soil is a bit wet and sticky Do what you can to make all the rows are being planted with the same soil conditions.

[@michaelwilliams7481]

Talking about working on planters, is a sign of the new season is getting closer. Love from Mike. ❤

Good morning ❤🎉

[@dannob3709]

Fat tires on the tractor for planting season!!!!😎😎

[@mjl9702]

part of me wants to come down for a day and show you some simple repairs on that Semi truck that you as owner/operators are totally capable of doing on your own.

[@francisyounas7276]

LAURA, AND GRANT, THANKS FOR NEW VIDEO 📸.

[@kirklothert3435]

You still go beautiful girl because you can do anything you set your mind too. I still believe in you

[@VonBluesman]

Laura your amazing expert driving had me pinching the seat and I wasn’t even driving. I was like Grant hollering whoa whoa whoa. LOL 😂

[@lewbaxter243]

Since you have the duals, put ‘em on and be ready to plant! Before harvest you can put the oversized tires back on.

[@andban92]

Holy crap,Scotty is huge!

[@commanderdante3185]

Grant is a legend and full of knowledge.

[@gregoryjohnson1256]

Scotty is running the barns....🐈

[@7viewerlogic670]

Good job viewers on sending the filter wrenches.

[@jimzeigler9491]

My wife and I use wireless headsets on our boat to talk while docking and anchoring. Looks like you have a lot of situations where you might find them helpful. (like moving the shed or lifting the pivot sections). Love the videos - please keep them coming. I share them with a lot of friends.

[@elijames3041]

Welcome back

[@williamheinrich4296]

Bobcat with forks is how I move them all the time

[@DaydreamAboutNiceThings]

Scotty is not happy ! 😂

[@On_The_Farm]

Great seeing you guys work so well together.

[@eddiespain2410]

Your so lucky your Wife listens to you!!! Mine didn't and put a hole in the top back end of our brand new RV. with 500 miles on it coming out from under a Gas Station cover.... Duck tape to the Rescue..

[@rangerd3847]

Thank you. Your channel helps provide some perspective on life in general. With everything going on in the world, crops still have to be grown. Life still goes on. You both are amazing. This is the American spirit. God bless you and all your family!

[@raysummers4284]

[@patrickmclaughlin9134]

I was laughing watching you two changing those oil filters on the big rig. I'm happy to see that people are smart enough to send you two the right tools , spanning wrenches. Have a nice day you two.

[@clydeosborne5359]

[@massey35]

Good morning Laura & Grant, if you had aboat 6 fence posts and put them down each side, your big building would roll like a toboggan

[@BillAmos-fk4hu]

Have a block heater put in! It will help when it's cold to make it easier to start!

[@NickRoddMPojas]

Thank you

[@unclebones2488]

glad you have the right tools now for oil filters , wonderful peeps

[@johnfebozzi8896]

Hi Laura' and Grant. Make sure to plug your coolant heater into an extension cord, especially for cold starts in the winter ☃️❄️

[@rypkepaulusma]

Great video Laura. I'm always amazed by the crazy low tire pressure om your tractors.

[@johnensminger7675]

Looks good!

[@johnensminger7675]

As usual....great video! Go green! Thanks for sharing!

[@rockercover]

Extra nice oil-filter tools‼️ The steel clamp type is my fav.!

[@jamiezeiler9025]

Planter looks great

[@roberthicks4248]

Beautiful Laura....

[@greywolfwalking6359]

Thanks for a clenching look at pulling sheds around...lol!! A good vid all around...n good to see " Mr. Scotty", on patrol..you haven't screamed on camera in a while, Laura...so I guess he's earning his keep?? Thanks for sharing!! C ya on the next video!! 👍🐺🧙‍♂️🦊👍

[@nashcobb3056]

thank you

[@ryankelly5303]

Good morning Laura and Grant.

[@ralphduncan8054]

I liked my Toro also, i had a 06 LX500 garden tractor. It was destroyed on 12/27/21 when my shop burned to the ground. I was waiting to hear a crunch of a barn door. Good job Laura.

[@deerefredj5975]

Those stap filter wrenches work great , !!! I have one from Deere had for years !!

[@BrentTully-pc7zk]

Hi 👋

[@jeffsmith2070]

Just had my own battle with the hydraulic filter on my tractor. I ended up using two standard filter wrenches next to each other and a piece of pipe larger enough to accept both handles. Still took some grunt but got it done. I am now on the lookout for that darned filter goblin that sneaks in my shop and over tightens my filters!

[@johnensminger7675]

So much cool information!

[@danfinley3690]

Always so fun watching y’all awesome job on explaining what you do thank you for all of the great footage bless y’all

[@roberthicks4248]

God I Love you Laura when you get techy.

[@JagjeetAgriGroup]

Very good morning 😊

[@colinbrown11]

Beautiful smile and another great video

[@gregorycross612]

Pretty sure that the sidewalls on those LSWs would be greatly fatigued by that 3pt load and may fail prematurely! Don't know the operational parameters, but at current inflation, way to much sidewall movement I'm thinking. Have a great day!

[@paulfranklin599]

The crane in and of itself is Genius😊

[@6410570]

Great video. The wide tires help prevent compaction, so I think they should stay on for seeding.

[@rjacj]

I've stripped out the square ratchet hole on those metal band filter wrenches on stuck filters, BUT for the most part they work great. You have 2 of them so you could use both on bad filters.

[@thomascruff786]

Awesome video Laura Farms and have a good day Laura.

[@floydferguson5366]

Great video!

[@roselinton8549]

My husband said " it would be best to put the skinny planting tires back on since you are going to need them back on anyway, it could save a bit of time when you are going to be busy ". He also wondered if a spoke type closing wheel would work better in your type of land, they have some good ones on the market now . Just saying, you will figure it out you guys are young and smart and know what will work best for you . Always enjoy your videos !!

[@rewardchoto8486]

Respect guys🙏🙏💖

[@jamiezeiler9025]

Got to love Scotty

[@jerhalco]

Clean sweep by Precision Planting is best addition I ever made to a planter!!!

[@HappyInSantaMarta]

I keep a strap style oil filter wrench in the kitchen utensil drawer ...the PERFECT jar opener strap that lid, give a little tug .... honey can open her own pickle jars now

[@thriveministriesinternatio8147]

Love your videos!

[@michaelallen9604]

Clean sweeps are probably your answer Grant...talked with ya both at Husker...we added Them to our 2 planters and they're pretty slick

[@lightfoot413]

u all have a lot of work to do..and Love Scotty..Black cats are sooo cool and smart...thanks for the video.great as always..best to you all...

[@MrTriked]

In 30 years, I've never had a filter I couldn't remove with a strap wrench.

[@glennmiller1629]

Great video! You should always let's Scotty in good cat. Love the tire but they got to go sorry!

[@throttlewatch4614]

The strap wrench is nice and compact and you put the 1/2 inch drive in the square tube

[@mikemullay5622]

The open end of the strap wrench accepts a half inch ratchet or breaker bar. Slip the band around the filter canister and rotate the square bar until the strap is tight, then you can twist the filter off using the wrench or breaker bar.

[@williammurfin6354]

There's Scotty, Hey Scotty!!!! Laura those seat belt type strap oil filter undoers are awesome!!!!!

[@richardmcclurg3896]

Famous camera shot! Grant's Ford on the rack. That's what a Ford does. Gets racked up. Laura's Ram? She got ramming the work out of it,

[@cedricbroussard8738]

Awesome 👌

[@johnhenderson299]

Great video

[@pauljones5495]

The strap oil filter should take a half inch drive break over bar but I will give you a heads up they can crunch a oil filter if it is tight like on your semi. Thanks for the video

[@eddiel5189]

I'd go small tires for planting. Thanks for the videos; I always like watching them.

[@Ding_Bat]

Few things are as cool as a big diesel engine starting up.

[@user-in6ri7oe9v]

Good morning my respected friend I am very proud of you and your work and I follow your videos very much

[@randyvoiles6579]

Awesome footage always 💪

[@brettclarke3905]

The row cleaners I like so far are my by precision. Reveal. Mounted on the bar. Separate from row unit.

[@Tom-qd5dk]

Those strap filter wrenches are fantastic and they work on any size filter. Connect it to an extender on a 1/2" ratchet, put the strap around the filter and start turning. The strap will just keep tightening down on the filter without crushing it until it's tight enough to loosen the filter.

[@jamestsmith4500]

I saw someone that looks just like Grant in my neck of the woods. I almost wanted to get an autograph. Keep up the good work everyone !!!!!

[@Namtov]

If you have to change, you have to change in the right time. Using the big tires look real cool, and using the right tires looks way cooler.

[@erichedges2948]

Love videos. On strap oil filter wrench, it should use 1/2 ratchet and roll strap the same way you are trying to turn filter

[@fredericdelage1542]

Magnifique vidéo et les tracteur et le semoirs

[@polycat7670]

No problem, wait wait!!!

[@rnp1785]

Wow you have some nice equipment

[@rodneywilliams4024]

Hi Laura & Grant , Rod from the land of Aus. Roll the strap wrench so that the strap tightens on the filter, then use 1/2 inch Rachet to undo filter. Love your vids being a city boy it great to see how farmers work. Luv yuoal.
