grayce you are such a badass! my mom got her class 1 when she turned 18 and she drove truck for 45 years. now shes a grandma and spends more time at home with my daughter instead of being on the road but i love seeing hard working woman! makes me smile cause i am so proud of my mom! rock on grayce
@@YaboyElls I think he is talking about when she was trying to start it. That's when i saw her pumping it too, doesn't do a thing on a diesel injection pump to aid starting. Seemed like a pretty long crank time to me. Maybe the engine is getting a little tired.
@@KStewart-th4sk Like most farmers she probably dosnt care, and I didn't either, we arnt truckers, we just use trucks , I used to drive a semi across the county on my car licence, ag exemption lol
We always dump rear door 1st, then back up & dump front of trailer last..Keeps weight on drivers in case u have elevator problems & have to move down road to another location
Great video!! Grace " The sun is sunning"😅...Watching both of you shifting gears driving them trucks was awesome. The birds eye view footage was dope.🤙🏾💯
This woman is the real deal. Smart, hard-working, practical, oh, and very cute. No purple hair, no sleeve tatoos, piercings, etc. A joy to watch and listen to. Gavin is a lucky guy.
Huh. I grew up in Virginia so not a big grain-farming area, and this is really interesting. I liked the little probe that comes down and samples your grain so they can run tests on it while you're weighing. A real combo of old school and modern tech.
I just discovered your channel. It only took me a few minutes to be homesick for Kentucky. I use to live in western Kentucky and I still miss that area.
Farmer Gracey bart from ohio retired truck driver 40 years I'm and to see women behind the wheel of big rigs not just beautiful but talented young lady ran lot af trailers it was nice to see how. Grain trailers unloaded bless u young lady be save on the road
I found that extremely interesting.I kind of deal with it At the end of the process we load it onto ships. It comes in by either rail or barge. I usually work in the pit and I unload the trains. Send it into the elevator to go through the cleaners then into the silos and then through the scales and on to the ship.
Lots of wheat coming off here, almost done it looks like. Fields now full of straw bales. I just started oats yesterday setting up the combine. My old grain truck is a 62 Mercury 700. Along with 2 ancient Killbros wagons. Massey pull type combine...poor folks.
When a old Mack has been sitting for a little while it’s best to hold the throttle to the floor till it starts it makes it easier to start I do it on the old Mack that I drove
2:30 the wiggling of the shifter. That's the best part of driving those big trucks, in my opinion. I feel myself trying to do it with the shifter in my automatic car but I get sad
Love the video. Nice to see what happens to the corn after it's harvested. I love watching your videos there so educational. Can't wait for the next one. ❤
Those old Macks are great. We have several of the older U, R, RD, and CH models still in our fleet. We don't use them for our OTR tractors to haul combinations (which we do a lot of), but we DO stretch the chassis on them and mount equipment bodies, where they then go out onto industrial sites and perform work. You could drive one with a Class B. In those applications, they don't guzzle nearly as much fuel as they would over the road, except to the extent that they idle high to power a PTO. We keep them though, because they're ultra reliable, simple, and you can still get most of the parts for them, even at 40 years and older. Hell, we've recently ordered windown felts for a U model, and that's older than the one you're driving here. You can easily order replacement knobs and linkage and all those other obscure items that are typically the first parts to become discontinuted. There's even new/old stock out there. Those trucks rock.
@28:38: sweat is healthy! In the heat, watch your salt intake (chips, pickles, even breakfast cereal) hydrate early, insure your water intake through the day and you will suffer the heat easier. Sweat helps your body expend heat.
Hey Grayce! Australia here! Checking out a few truckie channels and believe it or not your the only one I've come across that films yourself driving which is really cool. You poor bastards not having aircon trucks! I'm a bus driver myself in Melbourne and have thought about giving truck driving a shot but can't justify the expense of getting the license, etc right now.
I call bs on that, you are here for the same reason i clicked on it, an attractive young lady. There's a few Channels of guys filming themselves driving semis, heavy traffic in big cities, etc. My brother knows a husband/wife trucking team who drive all over North America. Not on YT though.
This is pretty great. Its important for me to see this and learn about this. I am not joking. I am not being sarcastic. I always wanted to see what the transaction is like at the elevator. Thanks !🙂
I dug it. Miss the days when the truck would be lifted at the front and back door opened. Friendly scoop shovel to the rescue. Noise and dust. Free bottle of pop
You should push the clutch in while cranking the engine. This reduces drag on the starter & batteries. It will also increase the life of the starter. Nice video!
Thanks for the ride. I wanted to farm in the 70’s out of high school. My family was farmers. All the men said go get a real job. There is no money in this type of work. There is no money in any job. The US government. Takes so much in Taxes. Got to have a heart ❤️ to love your job. Later.
11:49 Does the little window on the door open. Spray some WD 40 on the hinges to encourage it to open. It’s mechanical air conditioning! Turn it into the wind!
Yeah, sorry Man! Farmer Grayce stole your Mancard in shifting and double clutching! Just kidding of course. For fun. Great work to both of you! Have fun. Thumbs up everyone! 👍👍👍
You guys remind me of my wife and I 30 years ago. Together an invincible team. We have been a team for over 44 years. Stay Safe.
Wow, thank you so much!
Is that her husband??
my left ear really enjoyed this
lol.
Same lol
and here i thought that my headset was fried🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don’t think you clicked for the audio.
Next time use the other option she offers for volume so you can hear in stereo.
This is almost like a home movie. I grew up and lived in this part of KY. These were the roads I traveled every day. Great memories.

Really enjoyed this episode. Brought back memories of growing up on an Iowa farm in the 1980/90s.
Bro i wish i grew up on a farm smh
Double clutching brings back memories.
Yes! Even when upshifting,, like my '44 Dodge Army Ambulance!
@@KutWrite why ? clutch for the first and the reverse speed only
@@hansmartingrotefend8202 There was no synchro between any gears.

Always happy to see a brother and sister carry on the farm!
Love that people can still double clutch!
Gotta love the old Mack. Built in my hometown! That steering wheel is huge 😂.

@@JustinEtcharr TROLL!!
Hello sweetie grayce
Hahaha that awesome 🤣❤
Way to go Gavin!
Respecting the proper and requested way to double clutch another man’s equipment.
9:30
Why do you double clutch...?
gears aren’t synchronized… so ya gotta clutch it on the way out of the old the gear and then again back into the new gear.
You sync the gears with the throttle..
@@jacklenting9984
It’s an old transmission.
The new ones can be “floated”, or shifted without using the clutch.
The tooth shape on the gears is different from old to new.
The Old gears are sharp edged
The new ones are not

Well done! Double clutching , drones, and some personality. There is hope for this generation yet. Hopefully you can get a new truck with A/C.
I used to work for a large corporate farm in Eastern Washington. One summer we cut 18 sections of wheat with an average of about 90 bushels per acre.

Thanks to people as like you that's what feeds the country.
Thanks for your time.
In the UK, you have to get out your truck and do the unloading of the seed into the pits yourself

This machine works very well, thank you
I put many hours in the cab of a 81/82 R9 Mack back in the early 80’s.
Hopper bottom truckings always,(most of the time) fun
Wish I could unload that quick, but hauling lumber your at the mercy of a forklift operator 🙏, great video, love old mack trucks

I used to drive a similar Mack years ago, 5 speed with a straight pipe lol
Yes. Don't wind it over so much in one go. Definitely fuel not getting to the injectors. You may want to get the Injector pump serviced
Not sure why but I love to watch her drive that Mack😂
You look good pulling that trailer.
People in cities need to see this.
Hello and good day to all
Those Mack's sure sound good.
Anytime I get to see you guys drive those old “puppy dogs” reminds me of my grandfather when he drove them
