18 below. NE ny hit 14 below the other day ruining the idea of an outside hydraulic change on my tractor. Guess it can wait till warmer temps! You all keep safe. God Bless the farmers!
There is a lot of good stuff built up there. I used to be a Sakundiak bin dealer when we were building hopper bottoms. We have had their augers for along time.
Haven't actually noticed that you guys have bull bars on your trucks, a bit like ours Down Under. Not sure that the white trucks bar would last long down here with those vertical bars but the green truck has a real Aussie bull bar on it. It just needs some driving lights, or "spotties" as we call them, to cut through the dark and she'd look like a proper Aussie KW, well except for that pusher axle or whatever it is but you get the idea. Also, your daytime temps at -13°F is colder than any overnight minimum ever recorded in the whole of Australia. It gets cold here in winter, especially along The Great Divide, but not like you guys get. The coldest it's ever got where I live in northern New South Wales at 1000mts a.s.l. (3400 feet) is about 10°F. Keep the videos coming guys, they're really good.
Yah…remember going out in the morning at 15 below with 1200 head of cattle to feed and ever tractor complaining that despite being plugged in and injected with ether, they were not going to get up to go to work!
We have been getting alot of below 0 temps but don't last long like back in the 80's we would have -30 for over a month and when it got above 0 it was like sweatshirt weather. How are you doing in moisture this winter,we are 8 inches plus behind. We got around 8 inches of snow 10 days ago and the snow we got earlier was all melted so we had a brown Christmas. How come elevators only pay on protein on wheat up to 16, if you have protein that tests 18 you don't get more money why is that ? High protein would make great something or other cereal or feed supplement ? Here in Nw Iowa if you would haul in high test weight corn they would make you dump it in feedmill. Love your videos Tony and wish the farming You Tubers would go to 5and 6x on there merchandise for us big ppl, Have a great week !
Not sure if you have ever looking into it but highly recommend putting proheat’s or wabestco heaters on your trucks and tractors and highly recommend putting a constant power or bypass switch in so if you want you can leave them run all night! My boss has done this to all our truck and we are in east central Alberta, the one thing I recommend everyone do, I know guys that run them all summer long keeps the heaters in good working shape and never start the motor with a cold or cool block
Thank you guys for what you do at -13 while we sit in our cozy homes and watch. Farmers are so important to us and keep America feed and moving. Take care and God bless.
Maybe you are, but I'd run synthetic oil in any engines you run over the winter. Significant difference on cranking in low temps. I've found it makes it huge difference on my pickups.
Do you plan to build another shop or building so you can put your trucks in or other pieces of equipment? Be nice if you could do a video of what the future plans are.
When I had my trucking company I had some trucks that ran flawlessly year after year and some that were "shop babies" that always needed attention.. you're right, TRUCKS ARE DUMB...BUT COOL THOUGH!!!
We're running into the ABS Valve bodies freezing up because of line moisture. I've only seen 1 system that can fix that and it was basically like your air compressor in the shop, not only the pump would purge but the tanks purged also every minute or 2. Driest air system on a truck around, but it was super spendy.
🇺🇸 A man with an all Kenworth fleet!!! You better watch what you're saying the 'cancel culture' police will be after you 🤣🤣🤣 God bless and keep on trucking 🙏👍
Hey Tony yes you a right trucks are dumb 😆 the green w9 you have that is a sweet truck and with that 60 series detroit in it sound even better. Have you started selling any hay yet. You and Collin and your family stay warm.
That’s pretty cold weather by you guys. With the cold more problems seem to happen. On the brighter side as of today 1/23/2022 it’s 55 until Spring. Pray for a much better year for your crops.
I know it sounds stupid but when it got 10 and below way back when and no current bushes within 60 miles. (Logging N. Idaho)We held a propane weed burner under air filter intake. Once turning over and drawing not even close to scorching paint, but started fairly quickly. Of course way preelectronic cat and deutz engines.
Tony You are the first person on TH-cam I've seen that knows enough to unplug your block heater before starting the truck the heaters will last a lot longer that way. Also can you leave a trailer loaded at those temps overnight or will it freeze in the trailer?
I spent several winter months working in Meeker CO area where there was a week where the high temp was -32! Trucks aren't dumb, But the biologicals who design and operating them can be
I’ve found if you take the belt completely off the hydraulic pump on the auger it helps. Think belt gets frozen too. Also run 0-40 synthetic year round.
Tony - I was surprised to see that you had dirt on the diesel tank of your one semi, you usually keep them spotless. How are you liking the Mae West 5 wheel plates so far?
I feel your pain those kohler engines in 40F Absolutely nothing works frozen chokes stuck starters froze throttles belt on convayer froze solid ,pipe wrench to break it free and on and on on on it goes!
that is one thing i do not miss is firing up a truck in Minus temps and snowy icy roads to run on. but my love to drive still wishes i was driving. but some times ones old body just tells us enough is enough. well that and the department of safety after a third heart attack. but thank ful i a tough ol bird and still here to wach the favorite farm guys i love to wach hugs tony colin and both your families please stay safe out there guys
You showed the thermometer, I said “& that’s why Tony’s dad goes south for the winter” I, however HATE hot weather, can’t bear the sun, bc of my thyroid disease, but don’t want hyperthermia starting my car in the morning either.
I see you have Surco Electric Tarp and Traps , do have remote for them ? I do and prefer to use the remote over hard buttons. Also see grain dumping out the back end of trailer, is that a third hopper? Never seen that before.
Yes we have the remotes. It’s quicker to push the button once when we walk past for the tarps. The elevator has guys dump the trucks so they do it there. The third hopper is awesome for light crops like canola.
At our Ethanol Plant there is no one at the pit so when I pull over the pit actually I have two Remotes. First remote push Express open, then Second remote For back hopper push Express open in rear mirror watch when grain stops close hoppers often never get out of the truck.
Tony your compressor is bad if you have oil in the filter, that’ll screw up everything that truck hooks up to! Including the lift axle solenoids and ride control valves
@@FastAgMontana That is similar to my three axle truck ( that lift axle just isn't a common thing in Alberta ) and tridem aluminum two hopper trailer, full fuel is around 35000. Good question why my Pete and Lode King two hopper trailer would weigh the same, its got the smallish flat top bunk, but has 24.5 rubber and the extra thick wall HP 46000 axle housings which are obviously not weight saving items, all aluminum wheels though. At least with winter road weights its legal for close to 105000
Trucks are dumb? Amazed they have any intelligence. Anyone that has driven a nice truck is the proudest person alive sitting there in control above the world, shifting the gears wrangling through the traffic like a pro event. Many drive but few do it with style!

Big trucks, Big bucks is what I always say!
Cold start was awesome!!
Cold weather is dumb! So over it! Praying for an early spring!
best cold start EVER!!!!
Like the music!!! It was -26 in Stockbridge VT on Saturday morning.
Great video tony, lots going on.
Cold weather grain hauling. Lovely! Everything grunts and groans including us. Pray it goes well during the cold, cold weather
We have heck with trucks in cold weather here in Texas, couldn't imagine what yall go through. Love them KW'S.

We found some really bright led headlights that replace the factory ones. Luckily we have not had to test out the bumpers yet.
We run block heaters on our trucks in Maine...Yeah I know what -35 even -55 feels like
Same as here in Saskatchewan. U can start cat Cummins and Detroit. But not the frigginnauger
Yah…remember going out in the morning at 15 below with 1200 head of cattle to feed and ever tractor complaining that despite being plugged in and injected with ether, they were not going to get up to go to work!

Never gets boring. Thanks for the ride-along. Love the open range during those sunny days.🍁👍😎
Thanks guys! Enjoyed the video!
Tony the visor on the white w9 looks great
That Detroit would love a wabasto
Tony you’re trucks are definitely cool rides👍👍
Love your humor! I have farmed all my life, great life! Drove truck too.
Plug it in man

Perfect morning for my favorite time lapses thanks fastag keep up the good work
Trucks are dumb…but you have to admit,the view is better than from a Prius!!!!!
Toujours aussi impressionnant ces démarrages à froid avant que le moteur ne tourne sur tous ses cylindres, après quelle sonorité 👌👍
When I had my trucking company I had some trucks that ran flawlessly year after year and some that were "shop babies" that always needed attention.. you're right, TRUCKS ARE DUMB...BUT COOL THOUGH!!!
Love when you take me on truck journeys,get too see some of your country.🙏🏻🙏🏻🇨🇮👍🙏🏻🙏🏻👏👏
Oh that's cold but I love to hear that teal truck cold start popping and snorting As always you'll be in my prayers 🙏

Tony semi’s are exactly like snowmobiles you drive them for a day then work on them for a week. Lmao
Nice.
Happy Sunday!
Fun after church video.
Air drier filter has desiccant beads in it. Watch all of your videos.
Hey Tony yes you a right trucks are dumb 😆 the green w9 you have that is a sweet truck and with that 60 series detroit in it sound even better. Have you started selling any hay yet. You and Collin and your family stay warm.
All our hay was sold long ago. There is a major shortage here.
That’s pretty cold weather by you guys. With the cold more problems seem to happen. On the brighter side as of today 1/23/2022 it’s 55 until Spring. Pray for a much better year for your crops.
RIP that little starter motor
I was thinking that while I was editing the video too! We have never replaced one yet.
Shew Tony! Stay warm out there...I thought it was cold on my farm in NC...shewwee...Ya'll got cold! Josh #stoneyridgefarmer

Good morning Tony. The little beads are called desiccant?
That’s what I was thinking. Then desiccating peas popped in my mind.
Trucks aren't that smart, but they're 😎.
Good Morning. Desiccant beads.
Went on vacation to Florida this week to get away from Wisconsin 20 F weather and in Florida it was 36 F it doesn’t feel the same though.
Desiccant beads in air dryer cartridges
So whats wrong with the other trucks in the fleet? All you drive is the white one and the teal. Do the other trucks have smaller ponys?
They don’t have pusher axles so they don’t have the same weight capacity
Did you see Tony disappear and re-appear? That was some Hogharts' stuff right there!
Always been curious yall must have to stock up on food and stuff because of how far the store is
clean that fuel filter. from that auger engine !!!

good vid
You run #1 when it is that cold?? Having issues in Iowa with gelling at these temps running blended. Getting very annoyed.
How warm so you keep ur shop….
50.
Tony your compressor is bad if you have oil in the filter, that’ll screw up everything that truck hooks up to! Including the lift axle solenoids and ride control valves
Compressor has worn out rings if it's carrying oil over. Cheap swap out. 11:23
Air dry solution??? Ever use that? I don't like air systems in winter, very problematic.
Does the grain get "freeze" dried??
Do you recall what these trucks with the lift axle weigh on their own ( full of fuel ) and as well the truck with empty trailer as a unit.
Truck and trailer is around 34-35000
@@FastAgMontana That is similar to my three axle truck ( that lift axle just isn't a common thing in Alberta ) and tridem aluminum two hopper trailer, full fuel is around 35000.

Should really consider idling them trucks up in that cold. Its hell on the motors to just sit there that cold at a low idle
We kick them up once they are warm. Hate to run them fast when they are cold.
use some either. pays to have building to park trucks and equipment in.
Truck are dumb.
I love trucks.
I wonder,, does thst mean I am dumb for loving trucks
Plans A and B now it's time for plan C which consists of a new starter for plan B......😉
Now I remember why I moved from Cut Bank
Trucks are only as smart as the operator.
How many mile are you from your local elevator?
A cold start is 5000 mines
Tony fast ag!!
Please keep me in your prayers 🙏 since my heart attack in October I've been having a really hard time i was down for 25 minutes before they found me
I will be praying for you.Put your trust in the LORD!
