A Great Man and very practical!!!

Good to hear truth coming from Jon about our corrupt government! Shameful what greed and power produces.

What a great interview

What burns me is the blighted areas in the city that sit and rot while new housing additions and Malls are built on good productive farm land. That needs to stop fast.

After watching this I’m convinced John Deere could literally 💩slap a Deere logo on it and Ryan would pay top dollar for it😂

Did he misquote that every tractor was based off 8000 series. Or did he mean the 4010?

Great interview after great interview, keep up the good work, I love these stories , ready for Friday 👍🏻

Coolest grandpa! When you are a child and being allowed to sit behind the wheel is a memory that they will have forever. You can’t get any better than that! Thank you for the memories gramps. I grew up with old iron in my blood from my grandfather having dump trucks, busses and logging trucks and then. My uncle running dump trucks. My ultimate favourite truck I a Ford LNT, LTL or LTS 9000dump truck. I’d take that over any Kenworth or Peterbilt any day.

Another great video. Keep them coming.

Had a 630 when I started farming and it would always start.

Lovely to listen to the old boys ramble.great history watching from big grain Western Australia 🇦🇺

My grandpa and dad both farmed with my Farmall. Now I farm with it. I will never take it out of service.

I have a little Minneapolis Moline Model D sheller. I use it to shell out corn for my lambs. It takes about 20 minutes for it to fill my feed grinder mixer. After I'm done shelling I grind up the cobs and unload them right into my steer pen for bedding. That sheller can run about 300 bushels an hour. The E was much bigger. It could run 1000 bushels an hour. The final version of the E was the White 1200 which I believe the number corasponed with it's capacity. They were finally discontinued in 1975. I do not know when Deere discontinued the #6 but I read that they made an extra run of them when people heard they were being discontinued, to fill those orders. Keep these videos coming. The knowledge these guys have is disappearing fast. It's important to save this for future generations. It's important that the guy's that came before us get the acknowledgement for what they had to go through.

Baldwin, Arkansaw not far from Durand or mondovi

My brother-in-law had one and after I drove it I said if that’s all I had to farm with, I’d quit farming. Absolutely hated it.

For 95 that mans dad is still pretty sharp and still remembers a lot.....this video will mean a lot to the son in the future. Good storys from guys that have. been there done that.

Ryan over the years your audio and quality has gotten so great keep going brother. Be proud of what you're doing.. I'm 42 and lost a lot of good men/memories

Good video! I will take a kw or freightliner any day over a old peterbilt. Old 359 and 379 so damn loud in cab. I wore earplugs to keep headaches and fatigue down😂😂😂

Why did they have to wait 5 or more hours when drawing grain, was it to be unloaded or what.

Did he say that man is almost 95 wow he doesn't even look it. Oh that's the other mans father i thought they were brothers

Another great video. I really look forward to these on Fridays. Keep’em coming

These videos won't be properly appreciated until 100 years time if there's even a world. These hard working mens stories are Gold.

These truck stories are awesome

Good content, I love hearing other farmers stories.

I enjoyed this a lot. HE has a fantastic memory and is a treasure trove of information. So glad you and he did this video. For him to be willing to sit down and talk like this is amazing.

Dad was in bad shape but wanted to cut hay all he wanted to do was cut hay my brothers said we will get you put in the tractor but only cut a few acres lol he cut all day long and we had to take him out of his tractor and put him back in the house all he said was it was the time in my life he was so happy it was worth the smile he lasted 2 months

I would be interested to know how much land he owns now?

It would be interesting to hear Jon's opinion on the ride of the 8370RT. The Challenger MT 765 with it's osscilating bogie wheels rode so much smoother. Also the Challenger with the CAT engines and power shift transmissions are nearly bullet-proof..

He has a phenomenal memory and wealth of knowledge.

I wish I knew what he meant when he said the Magnum "didn't shift right". The only time when they didn't shift right that I experienced is if the accumulators are flat or something else is wrong. Otherwise its a smooth crisp shift that doesn't give you whiplash.

Jon seems like a rather selfless man. He farms because people need corn, he repowered tractors because farmers needed reliable tractors to produce corn, he keeps the business going because people rely on those jobs. I think western civilisation owes a lot to men who never thought they'd be rich but knew that people relied on their work.

Awesome listen, thanks for posting.

The Magnum was brilliant. Moreso whem you consider the time of its release. It's not fancy by todays standards but it was bulletproof, the transmission/engine combination was strong, reliable and flexible. I've done plenty of plowing and drilling seed at 1400 - 1600 rpm in our 7110. The 8000 series are what every large, rigid tractor is based on today. I didn't care for the 2 person hood removal though.

John Deere Rules

After seeing that sign you really are a manure spreader.

Very neat hearing from him.

Jon is right on those kids.

When I cross Iowa on I80 and pass by Kinze Mfg 8 get goosebumps and a tear in my eye knowing Jon is the epitome of the American dream.

I like his Trump-Pence yard sign behind him! - Trump 2024

I had the opportunity to tour the Kinzie corn planter manufacturing plant, and museum a few years ago. And I would advise anyone, if you get the opportunity to take the plant tour, by all means go for it ! Well worth the experience.

John Deere should have put Cummins 855 in all their 4 wheel drive tractors. It would have saved a lot of financial problems for John Deere and farmers.

Trump sucks shit through a straw.

Glad to hear your respect.

Yep!

Talking about a manure spreader tractor with a certain political sign in the background. Nothing but sh*t comes out of that politicians mouth, so it really fits.

Tractors are family if You are real Country!!!❤ All of ours have earned names. Much like people they havr their own personality snd they do evoke feelings. I guess you just have to be there.

Don’t agree about the 8000 series Deere the ford genesis was the leader for all the tractor of today.

Wonderful interview. I want to visit the museum someday.

Whole stupid family first they farm then they fàrm with John deere but look at what he looks like lol

Great interview, Jon is a man of knowledge. Love to run them two tractors behind him. Cut my teeth on an 4640 fwa And an 8630. My first boss was all green. Great equipment
