Hey Mike, im from north Dakota,I run a tire service truck, doing tractor tires and semis. I know how to do all kinds of tires, but never really understood the farming side, watching ur videos has enlighten me and gave me more knowledge to do my job better, thank u

Dude, always enjoyable to hear your informative summation of machinery. And your nuts, so I relate with that as well.

Great Video, You are one of my Favorite Utubers. Love your Fendt Combines & Tractors.

Thanks for the walk around Mike! Great video 👍

Hi Mike thank you for sharing this in-depth analysis of the Ideal combine, kt is good to get the hands-on experience of this impressive machine, take care and have a wonderful, greetings from Queensland Australian.

I “LOVE” how you are “Not Bias” to any particular colour as “No Machine” is perfect in every way. The “AWESOME SERVICE” you get from Fendt plus the local dealership will certainly be a “PAYOFF” to everyone involved as a “HAPPY CUSTOMER” always returns to spend more money on “Newer Equipment”. “Constructive Criticism” if taken seriously by manufacturer and dealership to make improvements on issues will certainly lead to “New Customers” in the future. A company doesn’t have to be the “BIGGEST TO BE THE BEST” but rather if they sell a “Decent Product” with “GREAT AFTER SALES SERVICE” the financial gain will be so much better for everyone involved. Keep the “AWESOME VIDEOS” coming.

Hi Mike greetings from Ireland love your vids! Many farms where I come from are smaller than your smallest field! lol

Keep it up Mike ! That voice from the cab is absolutely great ! Especially from the cab of ( my future combine) !

Subbed. Cheers from Uruguay 🇺🇾

Hi Mike. Awesome video again. HMe too, just recently discovered your chanel. Have been checking a lot last couple of days, admit series of great vids with lots of interesting stuff! Like the Fendt engineering details. Agree, there is lots of quick and articulated “Valuable Info” included in your videos. It allows to get “More Educated” as subscriber. Appreciate!!

Hey Mike Great information I remember the Massy 410 510 came out with the new return cylinder with kind of flexible weights that were always plugged later massy updated the the return on the 750 /60 with a small rotor type cylinder with rub bars that worked well love your videos I’m a retired farmer

Great equipment in some damn nice scenery. If i ever won the lottery, i'll drop whatever i'm doing n work with y'all.

Mike , when your done farming you should consider standup comedy, you're hilarious!

Awesome piece of kit!!that tow pin is unreal! 👍👌

The concaves got an upgrade, much more heavy duty from 2020.

Great video Mike

Cool and informative video. Thanks. Reminds me of a photo copier though!

Great vid mike crazey to see all the range of crops and the long season u have here in the U.K. weather is normally crap and we have to dodge the rain !! Nice to see agco on the ball and going to make improvements esp the guy with the gopros hopefully sort ur chopper out 👍

Just discovered your chanel. Great vids. Very interesting stuff. You got any jobs going? Would love it out there.

Sounds like you have alot of experience in plugging

I asked this before. But a really detailed equipment tour i would really like when you got time. Btw our new 828 are running great, even my dad ordered one

I dont miss plugging combines back when we ran gleaners it was a constant. Our Case combines now have a "deslugging mode" havent had to pluck canola out of concaves in three years.

This is a very informative video Mike thanks! Is the john deere still there to help you because it's late or can't you let it go? lol Wow i like the massive range of header foe/aft tilt you have and the contour master is so quick too.You need a big crop saver on the header

Hi Mike. Awesome video. Thanks. Do you find the rod crop dividers work good in lodged canola. We use the same fullline dealership. Honeybee and gleaner. Awesome. Thinking going fendt someday. What's your take on that?

The “More Info” you include with your videos the “More Educated” your subscribers become. “GREAT WORK” !! This all leads to “More Subscribers”. Your numbers have seen a “Nice Increase” as you do more videos and the word spreads about your “AWESOME” channel. From “Day One” I always wondered why some of your videos had a “Time Restriction”. If I understand it correctly it is a “Video Software Issue. With your “BUSY SCHEDULE” I now understand why you don’t use other “EDITING SOFTWARE” where you have to sit in front of a computer in order to make up a “FINISHED PRODUCT”. Other “You Tubers” have either additional help with the editing or spend a “Ton Of Time” sitting in front of a computer which I feel is “NOT PRACTICAL” for your “LARGE SCALE OPERATION”. I would sooner see more “Mid Length Videos” that are “PACKED WITH CLEAR AND DETAILED INFO” then some video that is a “Little Longer, A Little More Polished” but “DOES NOT” have the “AWESOME CONTENT” that your’s contain. “KEEP UP THE FANTASTIC WORK”. Your “HUMOUR” is a “Ray Of Sunshine” when “EVERYONE” needs a “Little Pick Me Up”. Thanks Again

Very interesting vid👍I do like CaseIH rotor/concave covers they are plastic, quick n easy take off. My only worry is the rotor paddles at back been bent, I hope paddles don’t break off n fall into chopper. Maybe paddles should be rubber at back? Header with wiring pipe needs angle flap to ride over objects. Liking updates on Fendt progress👍didn’t realise plastic pan, long term issue?

Subbed, greetings from Sweden

i love farming . i did when i was in india . itz ma pleasure i found u on youtube. i enjoying your videos good luck bruh🙏

have you guys run a lexion combine yet? i think you would like them. im so glad i found this youtube channel.. i farm just north of yorkton :)

It’s really nice to see some details instead of everyone else’s drone footage. It’d be nice if manufacturers actually put out some walk throughs on what drives what, crop change over just to give new buyers a chance to understand what it’d be like on a day to day basis. The salesmen at most shows don’t really know anything. Do they have a two speed hydro like the Deere and does the shift to warp two break any neck bones? Feeder house speed shiftable like the Deere?

Mike will be demoing the new John Deere X9 combine will be interesting seeing the X9 in the field.

Hey Mike how is your work out going?😉

Envious of the technology yet farming and running a combine is the same as it was 25 years ago in England. Only then having a cab was innovative 😃

There are always some new designs on new machines and a combination is always dusty. There are cordless leaf blowers, which are good at blowing away dust.

Use your GPS on phone to determine combine speed..

Is this a family ran farm, are you part ownership?

Dealer just lent me one of their 2017 HB AF240s for combine 2 and so far I'm not very impressed in flax. My 45' FD75 was cutting around 4 mph while I was struggling along at around 1.8mph. A combination of straw hanging up behind the cutting surface of the guard and the gap from knife to canvas is it leading to extremely poor feeding. I was hoping I would like it, but so far I'm very thankful it isn't mine.

You should take a look at Claas combines, here in Sweden were i live it´s prob the most common combine, the farm that i help summer times just ordered a 670

Se conoce la máquina al pelo 😅👍

Looks like your combine ate some hard object which bent concave a bit.

Are those demos

another great video. I read below the Fendts are giving trouble. Is this serious stuff and dare I ask if you are having any regrets ??

how many acres do you farm?

How much more trash do you think goes through with canola that soybeans? Is the canola stem just like a wheat stem?

It's a beast but it's loud.

Does the canola stink bad?

Mike why run the honey bee fronts over agco??

How many acres do you have left?

Who dr in ves down the road with a 50' head at night?

Ideal honey, bee mine!

Where is Fendt made

Should you really be breathing all that fungicide overspray???

I see thay are still running them tin idler pulleys.what shame

Wouldnt go under that header...

You're going too slow, 😆

Concave looks like crap. My combine is 10 years old and looks as good as the day it was new. Needs allot of beefing up. At least it isn’t on fire...

This "Fendt" looks too much like a Samppo to me. The rethrasher should always go all the way forward to the elevator - or what you call it. Refused grain should hit the thresher once over. Did this make any more sense? This was my worst concern when I had one, and it was way smaller than yours. I would hope such basic fuckups were fixed on the large ones, but I guess not.... BTW: Did you just get in the fucking combine with your shoes on?!!! Are you NUTS!!!!

NOT Ideal !!!!
