- Who's fault was It? The Dryer-Vapor 2 over temp! We're gonna wrap up harvesting soybeans today, get the combines switched over to corn and start on fall tillage. Soybean harvest went quick using the two combines. I wish I could say the same for corn harvest. Stay tuned...

Growing up, I learned when mom or dad asked 'Do you want to go [do something]?' that the answer is always yes. I also learned 'Do you have your shoes on?' is a lead up to a very busy day.
The shoe question is a fact.
@@MaryWehmeier got your shoes on? Good, go pave the driveway.
I find that my Dad and Uncles speak like this in the Country side.... i really think its a Polite way of them being Manly Men out here
I love your Dad asking the question when he was actually suggesting. When I grew up in Connecticut my Dad would say, 'Do you want to clean out the chicken coop?' when he was actually expecting it to be done. Of course I always wanted to say, 'Well, No, I don't WANT to clean out the chicken coop.' Some people have no sense of humor.
There's a hilarious old YT video called "How To Talk Minnesotan" that covers a lot of quirks. When I moved away my coworkers could never figure out how "oh not too bad" was a positive and cheerful response to "how's it going?"
Extremely common response to that question in Ireland
Makes perfect sense in Sweden 😀
100% normal reply in the UK

"Could be worse"
You can't get more positive than that!
As a professional mechanic, I will always say, if you see an engineer design something there is a mechanic somewhere using working words wondering why & how they designed that way.
My father was an engineer and he was always cursing out other engineers who were not mechanics first. They have no practical experience.
So true.. when you spend your life fixing machinery you soon realise those that design machinery...dont fix machinery :)
Wait till you have to work with a architect or interior decorator.
After working those people. You will happy there are bars.
To ad, when you see an engineer that used to be a great mechanic you have a top notch engineer.
My friend the engineer would shake his head how one of his equals became and engineer and didn't know what angle iron was. (I initially misspelled angle as angel, now that would have got you wondering) For those of you still wondering it has nothing to do with the PGA.
Thanks Zack for the dad explanation. This is my favorite MF video yet. You are still your dad's son. That's a gift. My dad just passed. I did very important work, yet I was still my dad's son.
I never noticed those types of questions/Midwestern lingo until I had some friends and family over from the East coast and they thought it was rude the way we talked to each other 😂. Honestly I thought us folks from Wisconsin were some of the nicest people.
Same way of phrasing things in Michigan
Folks from Wisconsin are some of the nicest people. Born in Columbus, still have family in Madison area and elsewhere. Grew up in southern Michigan, now I live in Indiana. Midwestern all the way through. "Fly over" is where the people are that keep the country from going completely off the rails - and they feed us to while they're at it!
We are!
Onyx missed a perfect “we’ve been trying to reach you about your extended warranty” moment.
Lmao 🤣 🤣
Replace car with tractor.
His response was very much like his dad though 😂
Yeah I was raised in Minnesota, literally about 20 miles north of you, and when my dad said, “do you want to go clean out the barn?” That wasn’t a question of whether I want to do it or not, that was kind of an order! 🥴😎
I grew up in southern Manitoba only 5.5 miles North of the 49th with pretty much the same set of rules and suggestions. I only made the mistake of saying no one time when Dad said "would you like to"!
as a Danish person, I can tell you this is so true in Denmark as well
Yup. He is not telling you.
He is asking if your going to do the obvious.
Did you ever say no?
I did... That next look you get speaks volumes.
Completely non verbal, but your next words.
" Ohhh yea no I am going to do that next.
Dad was 3rd generation German immigrant. Same thing. "Do you want to" was Dad being polite, not to be confused with giving me the option to say "no."
Yep and every summer was boot camp , hottest day of the year was throwing hay inside the barn.
Keep filling those trucks...that's what we like to see!!!!! AND be safe!!!!!
I TOTALLY understand when someone wants you to do something by asking a question. My wife is totally that way. The other day I walked into our bedroom and there was my wife...looking at a pair of my underwear that were laying on the floor. She wanted me to put them in the clothes hamper. So...what does she do? She asks me a question, "Are these yours?" Which meant, I found out later, I needed to pick them up and put 'em in the hamper. But that would have been direct and to the point. 3 words...Put These Away". Again she asked me if the underwear were mine and I replied, "I certainly hope so...because if they aren't I've got a few questions of my own." Thanks for the video Zach. Take care and be safe.
Great joke, been laughing at this one every time I hear it!
Seems like Onyx has really taken to farming a lot more lately, thats awesome
On a sukup dyer I think u can swivel the vapor ring closer or farther to the burner that might help cool it
Love it! Stay with the farm work young man. You'll never regret it. These are some of the very best times you'll ever have.
I definetely caught that question. I was born and raised in Wisconsin, can confirm lol!
We do the same here in our family in Germany :)
from Northern Ohio and of Polish descent and I can confirm, this is how we communicate as well
Well im danish and i understod that very well😉
A puzzle full of rubber snakes 😂 I lost it!
Like herding cats
I'm from Iowa and my family is very Scandinavian. Until you said something I never really noticed that my parents/grandparents do the same exact thing when they want us to go do something. I wouldn't say it's passive aggressive, it's just the culture from which your family grew up in and are used to saying/doing. It's actually pretty interesting now that you've brought it to my attention
It's noteworthy that it didn't take MF very long to get his butt up to the other combine once his dad "asked the question".
You should get an engine Re-map done on the S780 that would give you the extra power and torque you want out of it
As a Swede I can confirm the passive aggressive comments. And while growing up the worst thing was hearing that your parents were disappointed in you. Never yelled or got mad, just "disappointed" 😅
I'm from the Nordics and we all do those "questions". We grow up with them. It's the same in all Nordic countries. Your parents do it as a way to say "you dolt, why are you just sitting there, can't you figure it out yourself that you should...". Adults do it to one another as well, but it's really seen as passive aggression and won't go down well outside of close family or friend circles.
That order disguised as a question is a really good boss technique even here in the Northeast. I always would ask my cops “can you do me a favor?” But it was really “do this”. But the subordinates understand what it really is, but prefer it that way rather than as an order. The boss gets along better with them too! Always worked for me!
I had one boss like that and he was by far my favorite one.
If he hasn't already, I think Jim would be a great guest to talk to on "off the husk". For the little bit I've seen him in videos he seems like a helluva good guy.
appropriate answer to that "question" would be a strong "you betcha"
When the “question” is actually an “order” Irish from Michigan do it too.
Michigan Germans too!
@@markreetz1001 ✋🍻
My Dad was born and raised in rural farm country in CA, he was half scottish and half trish, 2nd generation immigrant blood. He did the same thing to me, "do you think you could...." Country folk are the same everywhere. When he didn't "suggest" like that was very but puckering... if you know what I mean. LOL
Back in the day we had three JD 8820 combines, all three were short on power, we took the fuel pumps off and sent them to Sun Prairie Wisconsin to get calibrated and set at John Deere’s highest specs. What a huge difference it made, probably gained 75 HP. It was like running a whole new machine. Well worth the time and money. Also they started much better in cold weather.
I didn't think anything of the Mid-West question. You started explaining and I thought, "well yea, he wants you to get going and he'll finish up." I guess I didn't realize other people don't talk like that. lol
I recently came to the Midwest and no that would be pretty snarky in other places lol. Like "Why don't you just go get lost? " snarky
The Swiss do the same thing. Super confusing for Germans coming to Switzerland.
Living in Sweden - that is absolutely the way to do it...
That’s why they call it minneosta nice.
@@EmanuelGraf weird I'm of German decent (Schroeder) in ohio and we do the same thing
I'm not Midwestern and my family isn't but growing up and even now its the same way. Another good one is "if your bored, you can do ____" or even "if your not busy can you..."
Translations: You're going to do this and why haven't you done so already and
I want this done right now so get on it
By your name i can presume you have some east european ancestry and they also do questions as orders. At least around Baltic Sea (but of course it's old Swedish territory in 1600s)
Great awesome video zach , Nate , Jim , that’s a change you finishing beans that quickly in the season , I think zach will be getting a honey bee header in the future . Very impressed with your comments plus up in Canada in Saskatchewan they use them on new Holland combines lots .
2:59 "5 to Allen..." Instead of firing Allen, you just stripped him of his call number?
I thought the exact same thing.
🤣🤣 poor Allen has never been awarded one yet
@@MillennialFarmer So does he bow down frequently and say " He's Not Worthy!" ???
Geez Zach …. Your insight to the senior speak the passive aggressive Directions To You To Do …. Very very insightful to getting along with Dad who’s STILL BOSS!!!
You honored him and his instructions with your acceptance and actions 🙏🙏
My Swedish (Johnson), male, mentors,did not mince words, no passive/aggressive. I spent a summer working with my grandfather when I was 14 in 1960. I got an earful from him.
I grew up in MI, and have now lived in OR for the last 20 years but still do the midwestern questions, my kids are starting to catch on and are starting to do it to my wife now, she doesn't appreciate it much, lol.
My Grandfather was born and grew up in Windom, MN and despite growing up in MD I heard that type of "question" a lot.
100% Scandinavian 5th generation MN farm kid here...I absolutely knew what your Dad was saying!
You bring back some good memory's for me. I worked for a farmer some 35 years ago and he would send me to the field with his biggest JD pulling a 40ft field cultivator and a peanut butter jar full of sunflower seeds (sunflower seeds = no smoking in tractor). You couldn't see the other 3 sides of the field so I knew Id be there for a while. Good tunes and A/C so I had it made. Oh and if the A/C quit, the tractor sat till it was fixed because you didn't get dust in his tractor. I learned so much working for him. Onyx has a great life in front of him and a great teacher to show him the way. Love your channel by the way.
I thought of you when I was on the road today:
Passed two trucks each pulling a 9870 STS with the wheels off. Couldn’t count them to see if they were single or dual fronts.
Just throwing this out there. Years ago we had two different deere mechanics say it's not necessary to change the accelerator speed or feeder house clearance. We've left them the same ever since without issue. Makes switching between corn and beans much easier.
Love seeing the kids following in there parents footsteps 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻keep the great content coming. God Bless and Stay Safe
Brings back the memories when I started driving a tractor at his age. If I only knew then what I know now lol! Keep it between the rows 👍🏼
I guess Zach just became the field supervisor and corn dryer supervisor. Good to see Onyx taking a interest in farming.
Hey Zach! I really love your videos and I really want to say that you inspire me to be a farmer just like you. I started working with my grandparents at the farm with harvest this season. Thanks for inspiring me! Also I’m from Nebraska
I also totally caught that question because I grew up in Minnesota and lived on my uncle's Farm in South Dakota and that is exactly how we talked all the time
@1:48 Transplanted to GA from growing up in MN. I do it all the time to southerners...
I really enjoy watching all the activities in the field! I wish I could come out to lend a hand.😄
if you happen to catch a day of intense rain in your harvest time - a day where you can't get into the field - you should definitely take your camera & sneak off to Wisconsin and catch someone wet-picking a cranberry harvest. I think you / your viewers would like it as a change of pace. ps. We've had 25+ inches of rain this summer (JnJyAgSp) in SE Mass. This year, I think we got some of your moisture alotment. Please make sure you take your alotted total back next summer. I almost planted the tractor while trying to dig my potatoes this year. Thnx.
I finally figured it out. I had my 11 year old son driving the 1952 Farmall H the other day, pulling the old township grader. We were grading the rock on our driveway and he couldn't keep the H going straight. I had seen Onyx driving tractors on TH-cam so I figured my son could do it too. What I now realize is that we need to install Autosteer on the H. That way the next generation of farm kids can keep the tractor going straight on the driveway. Thanks TH-cam!
In Michigans "Thumb" we're still a week out or more from starting Corn and Soy harvest. Sugar Beets are maybe 15% in but the warm weather will slow down the beet harvest as the sugar factory only accepts enough to keep the plant running in these temps. They don't rot in the ground. Michigan Sugar....Caro Mi. Oldest operating Sugar Beet Processing Plant in the U.S.
I have thinned sugar beets on a church farm, starting 50 years ago. My mom and sister and me, plus lots of other people. Sugar plant maybe closed down around here. Growing alfalfa and corn on church ground this year one of the spots I work.
“What are you doing in my field”. “Trespassing!” Classic.
You guys sound just like my son and I. LoL
I ate my fair share of the "Polite Dismissal" growing up, in the service, and learning a trade. Now I sometimes surreptitiously incite my helpers into tasks with "You guys got this....??" and before the chorus of "Yeahs" I'm out the door to do....... whatever.
I am from Sweden. They left Sweden for America. And they were not afraid to work.
Glad you said, "Thunderrrr". I noticed it wasn't included a few times recently and I was oddly disappointed. Don't know why, but I was looking for it. So, thank you.
Dad was a full blooded Dane, born in the US. He didn't ask. I learned early on "I don't know" is not an answer to anything. I spent a month with relatives in upstate Wis when I was young. we lived in the NE. I came home with the Ah & Ahbout and it dove mom mad.
Knowing your heritage is a good thing but as big as the country is many may not understand. That’s were Respect is important for all people.
That translation is also accurate if you are of Scottish descent and raised in Louisiana. Most especially when my Dad was asking the question.
Central Wisconsin boy here, can confirm that wasn’t a question.
Yep!
😂😂😂
I truly hope your kids will appreciate the time and interest you take with them. Lucky kids!
"What if...?" - Midwestern style! Also right up there with being volun-told what to do. Someone volunteers you for a job, and then tells you about it later.
I am of Scandinavian descent and grew up in SD so I understand your monikers 100% .
I'm rather far from the midwestern US. I learned to speak English in Ontario, and yet, the way that he asked you that question felt rather natural. You describe it as being passive agressive, but I would describe it as being a suggestion, but also a statement to the fact that it needs to be taken care of. My first language is French. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it.
Zach you are all so blessed great family and friends getting it done. Thanks for all you guys and girls do. Stay healthy and safe from Ponoka Alberta Canada 🇨🇦
“Those little guys don’t worry about those little guys” super troopers !!!!!!!!
The great thing about this kind of passive conversation, is that you can just play dumb until they outright ask. Most people who use this approach with me usually have no problem, and I will do the suggestion. The people who do this with no appreciation for my time, or the fact that I am disabled, and would be putting myself at risk, I just act like I never heard what was said, or didn't get the hint, and then they have to ask for my help, at which point I either help, or give a speech on why not, and they finally do some self reflection. I am to old for this stuff anymore i guess. God bless.
Boy, your dad’s good that passive aggressive thing.....smooth and oh so subtle...
Nice to hear the grain dryer running in the beginning of October. Have a safe harvest
The question that’s an order extends further south too. My dad did that all the time to me and my brother. He grew up in the St. Louis, MO area.
My family is French Canadian living in Upstate NY. We talk the same way.
Since you did a shameless plug of the merch I fell it’s a good time (that’s what she said) to make sure you know that my shirt that was ordered came in a week or 2 ago I can’t remember exactly when but i love it. Comfy like a carhartt. I can’t say how durable it is YET cause I only worn it once. But when I say it’s definitely a tall. It’s definitely fits the bill of a tall shirt with the plenty of extra cloth at the bottom. (In cause you prolly don’t remember me I’m the 6’9 dude that inquired about the tall merch being added. Tanks again. Zach! 🤙🏻
We had a farm about 20 miles from our house with side row sprinklers, around 4:30 in the afternoon my dad would say “You want to go with me to move the sprinklers”…..it wasn’t really a question.
Get a Hyper Volt massager to bring in the cab! They can really help with circulation in the legs on long periods of sitting.
I’ve noticed that people from some parts of Northern Ireland do the ‘non-questions’ thing as well, I’m Scottish but mum is a northern irishwoman and she does it all the time, apparently it’s common in County Derry.
I’m a farmer in Iowa, i just started again after my grandparents passed. They used to have a farm and I worked there as a kid and I dropped my welding job to go on a farm and carry them on! I’dlove to come check out the millennial farms some day and do a day of work! My name is Jake, feel free to ever reach out I’ve been thinking about starting a channel myself!
It's the same with Irish families....it usually starts out, "you might want to think about......" Boys are like huntin dogs. They work a lot harder if you hug them regularly. Wish I had done it more.
Onyx going full race spec with the mullet now lol. That camera system mite come in handy keeping the girls away from him now lol. Cheers n beer's from New Zealand guy's 👍👍🍻🍻👨🔧🚜🇳🇿
Clearly Jim’s fault
What a shame you played into that "vaccine" nonsense...
@@mikeznel6048 actually the fact that he has stayed clear has said volumes. It is a horribly devisive topic. Why start what you know has no winners
🤣🤣🤣
As always
As always😂
I’m born and raised on our TN farm. My dad has been asking me those “questions” my whole life. 😂
Zack. Your. dad and Jim are always right because they are your senior
You need a leaf blower to blow off the combine everyday when you’re done it was the best $150 investment I ever made it makes the combine a lot cleaner and easier to clean at the end of the season
Love this channel so much!
You guys are the best!
Yep you can see the same on others but this one is better. I like the humor from Zach
@@Sc-jf3yk I agree
I was born and raised in Indiana, and I'm of Polish descent. I can confirm those choice of words, because my dad does it all the time.
I've been saying it for years, I don't know why I'm here, and I still don't know jack about farming after countless videos. But this right here is one of the best damn channels on TH-cam
Like you, that's the way I took it also...simple and straight forward
You should put CRC corrosion inhibitor on those screw threads. We use it on all the gear we keep outside.
Starting a sentence with “what if” when telling someone to do something is the only way 😂
Enjoying a country sunset, running some equipment, spending time with your son probably talking racing and deer hunting. Experiences worth more than 300 bushel corn ever could be.
If I may ask, y’all do both soybeans and corn. Do y’all plant and harvest more of one than compared to the other or do y’all plant them about equally? Which one do you prefer to plant and harvest the most?
First there knees go and then they get demanding. Time he went on a open cab combine for a couple of days. After all, it was the young ones who made them successful enough to have air conditioned cabs. Don’t tell him this though Zac as the older ones have trouble understanding.
I here you talking about dust on your windows. Stacyic electric cause the dust to stick on windows put a chain on the back axle and drag it on the ground and it help cut the dust from sticking on your windows on the combine
love the ending...like father like son
4:13 You're wearing my sweatshirt! :-) Got it for Christmas last year. Unfortunately, it hasn't been nearly cool enough yet here in central PA (Hershey chocolate bar area) to even think about wearing a hoodie. Stay safe up there, beanin'... cornin'.... racin'....
There it is, another video to make my day better!!! 😀
I appreciated your clip on the high low speed belt change over. We have lost much skin to pinched finger's trying to get the belt change over. Yes getting the shield back on was always my job for by that time Johnny was used up on his patience 🤪
I am Norwegian and we do the same, asking questions that are not really questions :P Hillarious when you point it out, never really thought of it. Its just "normal" here.
Like when my boss wants me to do something at work. Its allways in a question form, never an order. Even tho its technically is.
I didn't realize until you pointed it out but I do the same thing with the Midwest lingo. Used it frequently as a Ag mechanic with coworkers & customers at times.
as a Norwegian, 2:00 is so tru, always "interesting" when mom or dad come later and ask if you did that...
Zach, I'm from German Swiss decent. I've heard statements like that all my life. I grew up in Northern Illinois and I'm across the border in Wisconsin, 40 minutes from home.
yup we still give orders in the form of questions in scandinavia :D the phrase "that wasn't a question" is a common expression here
“what if”, and “why don’t “ we’re common in Western Pennsylvania where I grew up.
Isn't PA a part of the old settlement of now three new states and was called New Sweden in the 1600s?!? Can't you also see along Hwy 40 a place called Vineland which is the name of a place where the Scandinavian Vikings came to at about year 1000 Ad, 500 years before some italian bloke tried to get to India? You see it works even here with questions! LOL
Me and my fiance love watching your channel she wants a huge farm like this one day but she would be harvesting 24/7 because she plays FS19 ON XBOX ONE constantly lol
It's like trying to put together a puzzle full of rubber snakes!! 😆
Would the telling someone they should do something by suggesting it in a question fall under the category of "Minnesota nice"?
That “question” means the same in the Deep South as well. Anytime a Dad asks a question like that you should definitely be heading off to get it done.
I love watching the farmers videos cause they mostly all have dogs love a farmer and their dogs
