    Mike - Great video. I'm a retired Pastor, living in Davenport, IA. Most of my extended family growing up were farmers (I was pretty much a city kid). My experience on the farm was in the summer when I drove Mom nuts, and she sent me for a couple of weeks to an aunt or uncle's farm to run off my excess energy. I enjoyed watching this harvest video. The overhead shots were great, and your explanation of the hand off between the combines made complete sense to me. Thanks again. Blessings to you and your family as you prepare for another season of growing to feed America and the world.

    *Mike, you nailed it perfectly. That's how you kickstart a field.*

    I like both the idea of combines pulling their own heads on trailers themselves, and the folding corn heads. Saves another vehicle trip, and person.

    The Challenger & Balzar 2000 grain cart look like toys--until they pull up to a combine or a semi. Great Video, Mike.

    Mike, I agree with you on the CLAAS colour package. Looks Great!

    • @MrKaba1985
      @MrKaba1985 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      The yellow claas you can buy before until the 700 series is about the CAT Company that was in an partnership with claas until 2003. claas take the color paying cat for it and now all farmers in the us would now that are the good German Combines with the new Series from 2020 7000 and 8000 they decide it's time to make a point and let the Combines in the same color like the tractors are over years

    Hi Mike. Great to see how things are done over the pond in the USA. Here in the UK we say Class, as in School class, even the dealers pronounce it that way.. Keep up the great work fella.

    "Rhymes with Boss" -- according to Claas of America advertisements. I'm pretty sure they know how to properly pronounce it. Great video, great machines.

    Thanks for a beautiful video. I'm very thankful for explanations. I've not been raised on a farm but have had a big passion for farming ever since I got my first toy tractors. I appreciate all of your farming videos because I couldn't be able to see something like this otherwise.

    These look pretty awesome but I think I still like the fendt T9 better. USA better step it up cuz Europe is kicking our ass these days in big combines and the fendt 1050 tractor both faster and stronger.

    I personally think the look of the combine is hideous, but it’s impressive how much corn it’s taking in. 16 row corn head at 40 feet is a lot of corn. Personal favorite combine is gleaner

    Another great video Mike! Love the drone footage you shot.Gives us a much better perspective of the size of the field they are chomping on lol. I guess the Claas Combines sure got rid of that ol Deere and ran him right out of the field lol, I am curious about the header reels. They seem more like a decoration for the combine but I understand they push the stalks over a bit but curious how the hell they pick up downed stalks in a field?
