I absolutely love how detailed this video is! You’ve really covered everything about [10:00]. I’d love to see more tips on this. I just shared a similar approach on my channel too!
Great video! 'First day of harvest at an incredibly large farm in Central Illinois' is truly impressive, showcasing the scale and professionalism of the harvesting process.
"Just ignores the question"...so good! Also, at 33:00 when the X9 is coming directly at the camera, you get a good idea just how massive that rig looks. The X9 is a beast and looks to be a nice great addition to your fleet (as long as it runs).
Trippy, let the viewers know what Marty thinks of the X9, cause the Marty Cam(which is genius) is radio silent. Good luck keeping up with the cart this year, X9 is a beast! Thanks for all you do to make the vids.👍
It's been a great machine so far other than these random issues. For the last few years, farms big enough to run these huge combines usually like to run them brand new with a full warranty. This mentality has oversaturated the used market, which is why we were able to buy it at a nice discount. You are right, though. There is always a risk of the combine being offloaded due to problems.
I’ve been watching your videos for a while now. I’m so happy you guys are getting a X9 check every day to see you when you post new ones up can’t wait till harvest.
If Marty is anything like my husband, he didn’t totally ignore the question. He just didn’t waste his breath on an answer bc the first thing he said was right. He got that lovely trait from my mother-in-law. They also completely ignore you if it’s something they don’t want to talk about. They’re so good at it, you’d think they’re both deaf.
You should look at renting a mother bin lol. Get yourself a few hours of harvest capacity after elevator hours, then the trucks go hard as soon as they open.
I meantioned to you about the electrical issues, i got to run one for a few days and that was my complaint is constant erronious error codes. However they are an absolute dream to run. I said it in the previous video, that thing looks TOUGH with the LSW's
@@aTrippyFarmer That's good news! The only other farm we knew of that had one did a similar deal to yours, few hiccups in the beginning and then after it got a few separator hours on it it seemed to have found its way. Two fingers crossed y'all have the same experience!
I totally understand how frustrating constant error codes can be. But when the machine runs smoothly, it’s absolutely worth it. Hopefully, next time you’ll have a much smoother experience❤
I studied weather in college, and nothing seems to frustrate me more than how certain weather patterns just happen to set up at the wrong times for any season. I am trying to do a lot of market garden work and having adverse persistent weather conditions just adds to any stress level
Great job y’all, like the Marty cam, he’s got music, food, a new toy and he is definitely in his environment 👍🏻pops is a hoot…Andy I forgot to tease ya in the last video about rockin the mustache 👌🏻y’all take care🇺🇸
Dad didn't answer the question? He answered it in his head just forgot to say the words. I would imagine he is a gifted individual, IQ. They have constant conversations going in their head, just hard to track which ones are spoken. Just a thought. It's nothing personal, just how he is wired. :)
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I also think that might be the case, maybe he’s thinking about too many things at once and forgot to answer out loud. Everyone's mind works differently
It may be tim,e to think about bringing that 3rd trailer out of storage if that X9 is moving grain that fast ! Park it n the field for overflow when other 2 semis are running to the elevator.
Andy, my concern with the x9 is that you won’t be able to keep the grain away from it. I’m not sure one grain cart is enough, then trucks and drivers, then bins, augers, or elevator wait times. Best of luck with it.
I wish I could show you pics of fields in my area of PA in the Appalachian mountains. Hills & mountainside. Idk how they keep from rolling over in some spots. Then again, a lot of our farmers work with 4 horse power, since they’re Amish. But I’m always amazed how flat the corn belt of the country is.
@@aTrippyFarmer I always chuckle when the Montana farmers say “steep hills”in their fields. We went to Utah & Arizona on our honeymoon. First time we were ever able to see thunderstorms in the distance. I’d love to leave PA bc of the politics, but couldn’t leave the mountains.
Great channel, great informational content, great cinematography. Now what you need to grow is the sitcom vibe of a lot of the other big farm channels: Dad, making tough decisions, right or wrong. The uncles, and a look at what they do. Maybe even cameos from Mom and Grandpa. I can certainly understand if your sister is reluctant due to the thirsty simps on here. But, alas, you can't force people who are not comfortable on camera to become characters on your channel. Keep doing what you're doing, and we'll keep watching. It's nice to have current content, but don't make yourself crazy trying to put out videos immediately. I have taken a look at all of the big farm channels, but there is only one that I have seen every episode of, and that's yours.
Although that would be fun, I don't know that we will change into an entertainment farm like some of these other channels. All of the power to those guys, but my family doesn't really care to do that.
Just so you know. Those hinged flex headers run much better in non-flex mode. We have ours pinned up in rigid mode. Faster ground speed better feeding still cuts nice and low. It’s way better. But that’s for us. If you have issues try it.
@@aTrippyFarmer much more complicated yes. Watch how much pressure you put down on the ground while in flex with the cutter bar. cause you will easily burn off those Teflon skid plates and they are very very expensive to replace and they burn off when scraping the ground like that with a bit too much pressure. So have a look at that and keep an eye on those skid plates
@aTrippyFarmer they need a hydraulic cylinder instead of the stupid manaual turn buckles from 1908 for on the go adjustment....ya know like all their drapers made before the hinged ones
I talk about it in the next video some. That's a gamble with how our harvest seasons have gone. The last 2 years we have harvest for a month without rains.
We watched our dealership change and service everything. They probably didn't know to do anything other than open the back and make sure nothing was bent. I am not concerned about it.
"I hope this x9 is a good machine; you never know when you buy them used'. Apparently, you never know when you buy them new, either. If I recall, you bought a new s780 that was full of problems, and then traded for another S780 that was far better.
I will be very intrested to hear your opinion on the lsw. I am considering getting them on our 1050s we run on the maulchers (i think thats what its called). Have 6 1050, so want people opinions before i spend a metric ton of money.
@aTrippyFarmer he posted a video from Illinois fixing an X9 1000 with the same unloading auger not sliding in the cradle right. It even had the same tires and beans in the auger
Perhaps your dealer should have had a closer inspection of the X9 before delivering it to you. Very bad leaving all that crud inside clogging up the sieves
@aTrippyFarmer yep wit our new jd-14X 13.6 liter power tech pss 830's diesel engine wit twin vgt wastegate turbo chargers it burns 🔥 20% percent less diesel ⛽️ do yall have our big class -11 X9-1100 or big class-10 X9-1000
@@aTrippyFarmerAndy it’s kinda like when we went from basket strippers to round bale machines. It eliminated two tractors and 3 people. Efficiency went up because you don’t have to stop to dump. However,,,, a 500 hp engine uses a lot more fuel then the old 200 hp machines. But when you add the fuel for the module builder and boll buggie tractors it comes out less now.
@@aTrippyFarmer I like the idea of unloading on the go from the combine into a truck instead of unloading on the go from the combine into a cart. There would be less grain augering without a cart which would result in less fines in the grain, less manpower required, less fuel used, less wear on machinery and higher profits. There is more ground being compacted because of running back with the cart to the truck than there would be if the truck was running alongside the combine and unloading on the go into the truck. In other words, there are more grain cart tracks left in the field than there would be with a truck unloading on the go into it directly from the combine. Green chopped corn forage silage is heavy and it is loaded into semis while the harvester continues to cut and there is never a mention of compaction. Potatoes, sugar beet and various vegetable crops are unloaded on the go from the harvesters directly into semis and no one worries about compaction. Check out this video of wheat harvesting and unloading directly into a semi trailer. 2024 crop report - Box Elder
I was just wondering, why do you guys only have a 30 foot on the 670? My grandpa runs a 35 on his 660. Idk maybe you guys don't want to but I was just wondering
You don't have to have a gigantic head. The combine will cut the same amount as long as the head is wide enough to maintain a slower ground speed. It just gains you a little bit less turning through the field, which increases your average productivity.
Interesting it wasn't cleaned out at all on the inside. It gives you the "I'm done with this" type of vibes. Hopefully not a the start of a series of problems. Also, yields haven't really been blow out from the other farm-tubers out there. Makes you wonders why commodity prices got hammered so hard?

I still disagree with you. Once it rains, you will know why you use a grain cart and not a semi in the field. Silage doesn't auger effectively like harvested grain, so you almost have to put it straight into something that can unload it.
Dad didn’t just not answer the question-he was too busy hosting a whole symposium in his head! I’m pretty sure he’s got an IQ so high, it needs its own zip code. He’s having deep conversations with himself while we’re all left wondering if we need to raise our hands for a follow-up! It’s not personal; it’s just his brain running on a different frequency!
Come on Andy,,,,, you should never EVER use the term “flaccid” on a manly AgTube channel such as yours. That word goes with man bun, and hairless cats.
How did we do wrong or weather related One word Andy AGAIN S U B S O I L E R You have a deep ripper,NOT the same thing. Ask yourself why are others subsoiling every hectare every other year,or doing the beans ground for corn next. Until you try ,you don’t know. I do,cause I did
Clarify the difference to me, respectfully... is a subsoiler more focused on the "lower" soils and a deep ripper more focused on the "top" soil? That's the only difference I can think of.
Dad didn't answer the question? He answered it in his head just forgot to say the words. I would imagine he is a gifted individual, IQ. They have constant conversations going in their head, just hard to track which ones are spoken. Just a thought. It's nothing personal, just how he is wired. :)

It is a big machine. It's really hard to do it justice unless you are standing next to it next to the smaller combine and head.
Farming with my dad, and being newer to your videos, our dads are identical men... I love it 😂

Really takes stress off both operators
When beans are sooo dry - do you let the trucks sit overnight, not tarped, to gain some moisture/weight?
We aren't afraid too if necessary. However, we almost always keep cutting once they're ready, even if too dry.
@@aTrippyFarmer I like the idea of unloading on the go from the combine into a truck instead of unloading on the go from the combine into a cart.
There would be less grain augering without a cart which would result in less fines in the grain, less manpower required, less fuel used, less wear on machinery and higher profits.

Come on Andy,,,,, you should never EVER use the term “flaccid” on a manly AgTube channel such as yours. That word goes with man bun, and hairless cats.
That word holds no value to me. I'm sorry that it triggered you! 🤣👍

How did we do wrong or weather related
One word Andy AGAIN

You have a deep ripper,NOT the same thing.
Ask yourself why are others subsoiling every hectare every other year,or doing the beans ground for corn next.
Until you try ,you don’t know.
I do,cause I did
Clarify the difference to me, respectfully... is a subsoiler more focused on the "lower" soils and a deep ripper more focused on the "top" soil? That's the only difference I can think of.
Dad didn't answer the question? He answered it in his head just forgot to say the words. I would imagine he is a gifted individual, IQ. They have constant conversations going in their head, just hard to track which ones are spoken. Just a thought. It's nothing personal, just how he is wired. :)
