Thanks for feeding the world. Farmers are under appreciated.

Pete: Thank you so much for taking the time to meet with your farming fans at the show. It was hot and you could have very easily told everyone no or even cancelled your meetup. I (we) would have waited twice as long to meet you. You were amazingly polite and your personality shines through when you got down on my fostership boy's (protective custody,) level to talk to him. The smile you put on his face was there all weekend. He told everyone and anyone around that Mr. Pete from KZfaq talked to us about farming and worms. He even pointed out that he was wearing his red wiggler worm shirt. Even at school yesterday he talked about meeting Mr. Pete, Mr. Pete talking about worms, and he was able to ride in a golf cart. Your giant leap of career faith gave me the gumption to quit my job and take the worms to our current size. Thank you much. We will always watch and smile: Elliott & Pat

Being an ole USAF vet, those B-52s need a lot of runway when loaded,. 👍💪🙏

Thanks for taking us along with you and your family to see the show! It is so fun to see so many tractors in one spot. I wonder if anyone has been keeping track of the total number of tractors at this show. I bet next year you will see golf carts with AC😂

All I can say is "Wow Wow Wow" that is the biggest Tractor show I've ever seen. And ok on the heat. yep being a "New Englander" I can relate to dealing with that kind of heat. we're just not used to it.And New York is attached to New England. so I know how you guys felt in the heat. unbelievable amount and types and styles of equpment. can't wait for the next video thanks Pete. Henry,Gray.have fun but stay safe in that heat. ECF

I used to march on that flight line back in the winter of 1982-1983 while attending USAF technical training right after basic training. No amount of winter weather clothing protected you from the cold biting wind

Man that show is massive - 100% golf cart required. thanks for sharing

Funny how times have changed. Having a golf cart is strange. But this show is so big it's necessary

"He's got an adjustment issue," I lost it 😂

Thanks for enduring the heat to show us a great show.

I was just looking at your page to see why I haven’t seen a video from you in a while. Started to worry about you! Glad your back!!

Back in the early 2000's Rantoul used to host the World Skydiving Championships or Competition. We at St Louis Flight Service would bring the portable Flight Service trailer to Rantoul to give Pilot Weather Briefings prior to flying activities. I remained at Spirit of St Louis airport, but had some friends make the trip.

Now that's a tractor show Pete! Love seeing all the makes and models!

Pete, thanks for the tour. Didn't go this time, too hot for me. Quite a long distance for you to visit.

It was really neat to get to talk with you for a few minutes. It sure was hot on Thursday! I did end up finding a draw bar for my Farmall m!

That big yellow tractor was one hell of a mean machine indeed! 😱 🚜

Grey is definitely your Mini-Me Pete!!!! Great kids and enjoy!

Thank you pete and family, watching the 🇺🇲flag wave while yall were under it..... made my eyes glaze over !! Proud Americans !!!

Huge is an understatement. I've never seen anything like it. Thanks so much for sharing.

Hey Pete. Great to see you and the family enjoying the Half Century show. It's Huge! Hope you had a great time. Enjoy 👍

I was stationed at Chanute for tech school Dec. '87 to Apr. '88. Glad to see it being used for something!

The editing is either way easier or way harder. Hard to tell which. Stay hydrated! The show looks incredible!

I can only imagine the logistics of putting an event like this together. Wow!

The best soil that I have been able to create is with wood chips and my farm animal waist. Mixed and all my wood chips come from splitting wood . But it has taken years.

Thanks to you and the kids for taking this old grandpa along with you. Very interesting. And to Mom, thanks for letting us all go.

Thank You Pete and kids for the tour !

Fantastic Presentation as usual Pete. Looking Fwd to the next ones!!

Thank you very much for this great video Pete, greetings from the Netherlands 🙋‍♂️

Perfect first video of the show thanks Pete. It's amazing the variety on show, can't wait for the next instalment

Shows like these are amazing with all the history on display. To holdover at n airport like that would be beyond words! Thanks for sharing it with us! Glad you and Evan finally got to meet at the show! I've watched his Chanel since you suggested it a year ago! Thanks!

Love those steam engines. They just have that sound you can't beat.

You're at Chanute Air Force Base, brings back memories.

Dang i missed ya ! I like your videos 👍🏻

WoW! Thanks Pete, that's huge!!

Thank you for this awesome video. Greetings from Austria.

Thank God you were able to get a golf cart !! There's NO way anyone could walk that. What an amazing show !! Glad you're having fun with the kids. 🚜🚜🚜

Pete - Your coverage of the flag raising was excellent! Thank you.

got my coffee

Finally!!! The right color tractor on the thumbnail!! 😂❤. Looking forward to this video - Thanks Pete 🇨🇦

Love the vintage farm equipment, it tells of simpler times. Glad you came to the show, sorry about the steam bath, that Illinois is in August. Hope you and your kids had a great time.

Morning Pete, we were there on fri, sorry we missed you. I agree with you on the need for a golf cart.

Thanks Pete/Daughter and Son, for showing-us guy's from florida the tractor show up north. some cool tractor's..

Henry is taking on man qualities. Big shoulders, strong jaw, etc. Good job Pete and Hillary.

the reel mower for the cub tractor was awesome, the ford four wheel drive was actually a Steiger built for ford

You're in the land of the Cubs! Oh, and White Soxs, but them, we don't talk about. LOL. That's prairie soil! You and your family are braver than I. I was hiding in my air-conditioned office.

Super grateful Pete for sharing such an amazing fair. Totally new for me but I love it. Thank you and your children. Very encouraging to see farming staying alive. We can’t live healthy without real farmers 🙏♥️

Rantoul (Chanute AFB, the base of my early teens...). Dad was stationed there for 3 years from Jan 1 '72 thru Dec 31 '74. Many memories of that wonderful base. Had my 5-speed stingray bike and the base was mine. Lived on the NE corner on the base and rode all over the place. Thanks for the tour!

Great video again and thanks for doing this 👍 😊

Thank you , Pete, for the impressions of the first day at the show..

What an awesome experience! Golf cats sure were necessary. Glad to see your children enjoying this day with you. The heat made the day slow, but we’ll worth the adventure. Thanks for sharing. 🚜

Setting out on back deck, ready for Pete’s video. Yay 😁

Looks like fun! Making memories with your kids!

Now thats a tractor show. Thanks for the ride along

Probably the biggest tractor and implement show in the world!!

Pete, it was great to meet you in person! My father and I are both big fans of your channel. Reminds me of my younger days growing up on our family farm. Great memories. Keep up the great work!

It was great to meet you! You are such a humble and genuine person.

In 1966-67, I was in the miltary. Went to tech school at Chanute AFB for 9 months to learn to operate and maintain flight simulators. Best career move I made.

Pete, we are so happy for you and your family. You are such a hard working man. You deserve this. So cool that your kids were able to join you. Keep making your videos for us so we can be there with you.

I find it funny to just a bunch of gold carts swarming to a spot because they saw a bunch of tractors heading in a direction. It’s like bees swarming to flowers

Pete i enjoyed speaking to you at the show. This was my second time to attend. I enjoy watching your day to day life on your farm. Harry Collins Tupelo MS.

Thanks for sharing the video with 2 of your children.l loved this toys tracters.please be careful.God bless.

Thanks for taking us along with you three. We were plainning on coming up there and meeting you guys....BUT, the weather was just too hot. Us oldies can't take this heat. Bummer for us!! Maybe someday we'll meet you. Take Care...................

Pete you gotta mini me! Your daughter looks just like you! Good on ya! ✌🇺🇸

Hey Pete, thanks for filming in that heat for all of us. We appreciate it and loved the video!!!!! 🚂💪👍🚂

Hi Pete and family! I’ve watched almost all your older videos and I now have a better understanding of you and your farm operations. It’s amazing how much your farm has grown just in the past few years. Got a kick out of Name that relic. 😂 Best wishes to you and hope you enjoy the tractor show.

Great one

Wow that is THE biggest show I have ever seen

traffic jam, take me back to Just A Few Acres!

My Dad had old Allis Chalmers and Massey Ferguson tractors. Part 1 brought back memories.

Pete. I was able to talk to you on Friday afternoon ! It was nice talking to you and your daughter !

Awesome Pete, an air conditioned hotel room was for sure great after that day

Thanks for sharing the video Pete. Of all the ones to miss I couldn't make it. 100 years of the Farmall tractor. Glad y'all were able to make it.

Supersized American flag going up beautiful! Love machinery so that was a great show. Buy anything? Hope you and family had a great time! So, when does the new tractor restoration start this winter? 🇺🇸

Thanks for this video. I had taken time off of work to be at the show but then other things came up. It’s always a great show especially this year with the emphasis on Farmalls!

Thanks for taking us along!

Must be a decent breeze ,all the flags are flying .what an experience it must be .Seeing it on video can’t possibly do it justice, incredible .thank you for bringing it to those of us who couldn’t be there . Wish I was there ,even with the heat .

Looks hot. Looks like a lot of tractors. Glad you are enjoying your time with your children.

Just brilliant thanks Pete have a wonderful time .bet the kids are loving it to , ✔️

Pete! Sorry I missed you at Rantoul. I was a vendor and it was hot! You and your kids are troopers to last as long as you did in that heat. Keep on keeping on!!

I really hope to make it to this show next year. It was also extremely surprising to recognize someone in the video who was driving a tractor at the show!!! What a small world

Home from surgery..what better way to ease my mind.

I'm sure Squatch253 would have loved to see that D2 close up. The huge tractor called earthquake I have seen on youtube before. The 15 bottom plows are slowly becoming thing of the past. You see a lot of odd machines on these events as well. I have to admit the rusty and faded paint tractors are a interesting sight on its own.

Thank you for all the time it took to edit this series, Pete. You always produce the highest quality content and we appreciate it and you!

It was a great time!!

So glad you got to meet Evan with Country View Acres! I love watching your channel and the great content you produce from here in norther Illinois!

Pete , Great video as always . Was glad that my wife Lorie and grandson Levi got a chance to meet you in person Saturday ! I sent you a note in my absence as to my COPD its hard for me to do hot weather. Remember my tip , limestone on the manure pack's and thanks again , looking forward for more video coverage of this and other stuff too !

Thanks for sharing Pete Glad that a couple of your children came along too

Awesome video

It is the golf cart capitol of the world We always enjoy it. But having a golf cart is a must

Hello Pete and children. You missed your Dads joke. THIS IS A REAL MOWER GET IT REEL MOWER. That's a hugh place be fun to see. Cool off have a great day.

In the UK we know those steam engines as 'traction engines'. Ploughing engines came in pairs and pulled big equipment between them.

Great video

I was stationed at that airbase around 50 years ago.

When I was in the Air Force I attended ICBM maint school in Building 4 from your count of the hangers.. in 1992. The "cooling station building" was a brand new weather training building then. Coming from MS, that winter was the coldest I have ever seen. Love seeing the steam powered tractors. Great videos Pete!

All the carts driving to and fro merging and dropping off like a bee hive. A Swarming pattern at interesting activity and just plain mayhem, but fun. It's like a "be in" from the old hippy days. I wish we all could be there without the heat.

Wheeewee that CASE steamer was worth the trip I bet! Like stepping back in time! Very cool, Pete.

I just wanted to thank you for including the raising of our flag. Much appreciated Pete. ❤🙏🏻🇺🇸

Looks like you got some sun Pete! Stay hydrated. Thanks for sharing!

Train tractor got my 6 year old very excited!

I’m looking forward to seeing the farmalls from the beginning and each year.
