This is so weird, I had my co-worker tell me about teh review you left, so I checked out your channel and the video. Thank you about the review made me day and I loved the video, I did get a few pictures of it and told my friends about it coming here! Thanks for the compliments as we, enjoy your day or evening or night, just enjoy life 😁

In Germany some of our Fendt tractors do drive around 95% on street with these tires(1500-1800 hours per year) Tires will last about 4000-5000 hours. Streets aren’t a big problem for tractor tires

Hi Mike Looks like the Fendt is a really smooth ride! No hopping, no constantly correct steering for straight direction, low noise in the cabin! Nice!!

Always look forward to your videos. I miss the days when you posted new videos just about every day. I understand it’s hard to keep up that pace. Have a blessed day.

I used to word for a fendt and valtra dealer in the Netherlands where we used to put 1 or 2 washers behind the scr sensor in the exhaust. This resulted in much less def problems.

Mike, I’m with you on diesel emission regulations. If the government forces def then they should make it work. Same with egr and dpf. Thrusting the added cost of an unreliable system on the trucking, ag, and other industries is just wrong. Unfortunately it would take a highly organized campaign of citizens to get any results.

You can buy a film that goes on the window and effectively makes it laminated and stops shatter👍

Thanks for taking us with

Good option for cold winter areas: extra torgue starter with more juicy battery.

Nice of you to pull over and try to help those people. Well done sir.

One of my brother in laws got "Ass Ended" when driving his tractor. He flew through the windshield and the tractor was a write off as hydraulic lines broke causing the front end loader to drop which lead to tractor being split. He was EXTREMELY LUCKY to walk away from the accident with minor injuries.

Mike, you are the man! With the highway conditions so sketchy with the changing weather up there, I would a lot rather be in a big tractor trying to traverse the snow and ice than a semi with a low boy with the tractor chained down. Besides as you said, who wouldn't take a tractor driving job w/heat and ac and stereo radio for $300/hr. Keep up the good work sir.

Mike should look into a jcb fastrac for those long journeys

I always love the differences between Europe and the America's. Driving with hazard lights on for safety, but having the pallet forks sticking out, no problemo.

I love Mike’s videos, it’s my Saturday night treat. I just sit in and watch your videos. How sad am I 😂

Can’t beat a good road trip. Thank you

Could you imagine Mike on coffee

Thanks Mike, I always like a good road trip Video

DEF doesn’t work in our heat in Western Australia either. New Holland deleted it from their harvesters

Hello from Moosomin, Saskatchewan, Canada. Thanks for sharing your great video’s please keep them coming

21:00 Taylor Guy 😁 Another great video Mike. Glad your trip went well and enjoyed meeting you in Southey at Subway on your way up.

I agree roading dosen't wear tires.... unless it's very hot I I'm running jcbs with large square balers and also haul hay on 53ft flatbeds hauling from an hour away and I would highly recommend running your front tires backwards.

We got a blizzard in Toronto today. Went out for a walk early before everything got burried. First fellow I talked to told me to F off. Was tempted to tackle that grumpy man into the snowbank.

1st thing they take off our fendts is the DEF. Warranty is not voided out of Pentagon Farm Centre Red Deer. We have an 828 we LOVE.

I love it

If that bus is sitting on an older F-550 chassis it’s quite common to break the studs off lol

Thanks for coming to our A&w

8hrs, you smashed it Mike!!🔨👇😲🥳👌

Nice conversation with us Mike.

That was great service by Emma!

3:53 There are 2 different kinds of wear on your tires associated to driving on tarmac, as far as I am aware. The first is, as you mentioned the abrasion on the tire profile. The other one and perhaps the more concerning one is the wear on the flanks/walls of the tire. Tractor tires usually have less pressure in them for more contact surface with the ground and more traction. With every rotation, the tire deforms. At high speeds (as on road trips), the tires make more rotations per minute and the rubber stretches and contracts more often. The tires get warm, the rubber ages quicker and becomes brittle. I've seen you check the temperatures on your augers on longer road trips. The issue is the same...

My Dad had farms 90 miles apart in Alberta. I enjoyed moving equipment

We picked up a camper right beside the flying j in Moose Jaw, was cool to see you go through there

We do the wave thing down here in Texas too, I think it's a rural thing. Don't see it happen much in the bigger cities.

Thanks Mike for continuing my rant on DEF! In total agreement of how PC minds can screw things up.

Mike, need to get a "cheap" old diesel engine and mount it on a trailer to run your bag extractor. Can just drag it around behind a pickup with no worries.

Great video Mike safe travels driving your tractor

Just like Saskatchewan we do get a lot of one finger salute while driving around here but mainly the middle finger.

That looked like so much fun,traveling across the country in a tractor,enjoyed it

21:00 Taylor Guy 😁 I enjoyed meeting you in Southey at Subway on your way up. Another good video.

Mike Spend $150 bucks buy a oil pan heater Plug in a couple hours when above -18C A few more hours when below -18 Warm oil is a happy tractor

Way to go Emma!!

I remember a video of yours from 1-2 years ago in which there was a snow storm and you had to use the loader to remove snow to get out of the apartment complex.

On one of our swathers the def tank cracked from sitting outside in the winter with def in it.

Dont forget Mike,you should only run your starter for a MAX of 15 seconds. If you breach 15 seconds of trying to turn the engine with the starter motor you are severely heating up and taking away the life of your starter motor. I know sometimes you cant get by without running the starter a long time, you got her going fast in this video but ive seen you lean on the key to start wayyyy to long before. Keep that in mind, avbout 15 seconds is the magical number before you potentialy start doing heat damage.

Mike -- ya do the "Five Finger Shake" wave

Plot twist, just after the video ends Mike realizes he left the loader bucket at home.. :)

Glad I ran into you mike! Good chattin!

I also do agree on a temporary override to keep you working!

Case IHs ssl hydraulic transmission oil if very good for cold its shitty expensive to . Those battery wrapper heaters are pretty good to

sherr who gave knowledge to drive heavy equipment. your current use of modern technology has greatly accelerated the work, only a little power produces giant power in the work. thank you for driving your video tracktor sherr by seeing through the dark journey well it's amazingly inspiring in the need for acceleration of agricultural work technological developments

It’s called safety glass. Mandated to be like that in all heavy equipment

ice skating and hockey

No doubt the 724 has the highest price tag that has gone through that drive through!

I know car manufactures make their DEF system with heated lines and a heater in the tank. The tank is also designed to expand when it freezes and will not get damaged by the expansion. It should be perfectly doable to do this on a tractor too..........

your def freezing trouble go get a oil pan heater pad or a battery warmer and put on your def tanks on tractors you need in the winter to keep the def from freezing

Mike taking tractor thru the drive thru feels very Canadian.

Heh at 17:45! Bad Mike, he is paying with our eyes and ears! :D

My dad had a Fiat FWA tractor that he swapped the front wheels and tires side to side as he told me that the tires lasted a lot longer. As for freight trains in the US most are geared for a 79mph top speed but that would be on track very well maintained.

Side note, A and W breakfast is legit. Best fast food breakfasts hands down

Nice video!!!

12.87 for a damn breakfast sammich and a juice. Haven’t seen an a&w in a long while.

Btw I run a run a diesel and have had def issues. Still more efficient overall compared to gas. Keep the videos coming!

Ppl are nice cause it’s the Canadian Code. Unless you in the cities

Wow I got a 4wd hauled from south of Brandon to Lintlaw for 1100+ gst. 570 kms

The reason it doesn’t use it once it gets cold. I experienced lump mode issues when the def would freeze in excavators and backhoes.

GOOD LUCK ON GETTIN A HEAVY DUDY LOWBOY THAT CAN HAUL EVEN YOUR BIGGEST STUFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!!! :) now you have to WATCH OUT FOR THE DEAL TO SHOW UP!!!! GOOD LUCK!!! seriously be watching fro it!!! full moon juju an all that

You just stopped at the best restaurant ever I love A&w best food in the world especially the onion rings

I agree on the tire wear. I find they rot off before I wear them out. Frickin junk that they build them out of nowadays.

The oddaseys of Mike in Saskatchewan Canada.

After i started watching your videos,, I am so surprised how far you drive in the tractors.

because it is law in alot of countries to use DEF some brands of tractors actually have a system in the tractor the wont let you delete the def or the tractor wont work

Smart idea to start an operation north. Given climate change that will be great ground over time.

Just curious, just buy a float to transport sprayers, combines, tractors, would save a lot of time an a lot less headaches .

Emma is a Legend

u have to have def/adblue here in ireland and all of europe im pretty sure but theres a good few ripping it out themselves, makes the tractor more powerful and more reliable

Wonder what a&w employees would say if you had one your ideals combine’s in the drive thru

I would never ever road a tractor that far, the size of this operation and not have a lowboy trailer is insane. My opion only.

Something to think about. The Welker’s were lucky enough to find a Combine trailer used after someone got a different Combine and they couldn’t use the old trailer. That’s how you should find your trailer. You have multiple Semi’s to pull with. You definitely should find yourself a trailer and save yourself lots of time and money by saving time plus it’s so much safer to trailer at road speed and have a lower chance of an inattentive driver smashing you! 🥺❤️🖖🏼🇺🇸

I've parked my semi truck by those bins and walked through that drive threw lol becasue of covid =)

I know a guy with a cheap old tandem low bed for sale nice and cheap 12 grand good shape and fresh safety lol

Our mercedes sprinters have winter packages... they crank right up in -10f.. diesels..

Can try-out a agco valtra, they are made in cold coyntry

Hi Mike, have you investigated an alloy housing gear reduction starter for the 724 ? They make brilliant use of the battery power available and would greatly increase the rpms during cold starts. Cheers Murray. Somersby Australia.

Think about putting a three point gooseneck ball on your tractor.then you can take your pickup with you.

I did a little research on Saskatchewan. Two people per square kilometer or 5 per square mile. That is why people are friendly there. They are so happy to be reminded they are not alone!

DEF is called Adblue here, I can't tell you how many times I've seen people not even know they have a DEF tank and keep driving without it totally messing something up and blowing coal out the exhaust on a new car 🤦‍♂️😂

those led flood lights i doubt are meant to be used on a highway lol

What about one of your flat deck trailers with a dually

Expensive breakfast.

i guess they're mostly focused on the middle-europe in terms of sales since up here in Northern Europe and not even at the top normal winter weather is -15-35C

The DEF is easily deleted as is all the pollution stuff . AND oh does the fuel economy improve AND oh the extra power even though the HP programming is the same

It looks alot like me driving from Wisconsin to say Minnesota. Same friendly folks. Same kids weather. My son and his buddies took the 9600Deere with dual through the Dairy Queen once. Tight fit but they had to do it. I think you opinion is falling on DEF ears.

Bias ply and AvE twist ties

👍💯👍💯👍💯👍!!!!

In my work in Sweden we have 14 pieces (European) Ford Ranger 3.2 TDCi diesels full spec Wildtrak and used as First Responder vehicles at Fire Department. No one is older than 3 year and all (ALL) of them have been to guarantee service to change nearly every part concerning AdBlue/DEF and also the auxillarilly heater. We have also double plugs for electric intake and double batteries because fire-personell take them home or to main job as these cars are for Part-time Fire stations. Ford doesn't allow us to have communications/nav/computer on when car is parked because they can't have "so" much draining from standard battery even for shorter time. ---- Cost for Ford dealer service (we don't have to pay) must be a lot over $10 000 for each of them! [Ps. And now starts all "rotary things" give up also! None is over 50 000 km!!! In my eyes Real junk pickups and not made for professional duty. ] And nice to see our take away breakfasts are cheaper here in Sweden!

Love the road trips! Government juice...ooops I mean DEF, is so stupid. God Bless

If the manufacturers got together and said,nope we aren't doing that and we ran out of parts,service and motorized equipment, trucks and heavy equipment as well as Ag they would have to rethink the stupid def laws!

DEF heater... easy fix.

Chapel is probably watching this thinking,” I’m going to have to drive a tractor 10 hours between farms?! Oof!”🤦🏻‍♂️🤣
