"My grandfather used to say that once in your life you need a doctor, a lawyer, a policeman, and a preacher. But every day, three times a day, you need a farmer."
i have a saying for people that try to fuck over farmers "we can live without you but you can't live without us" theres also the more classic saying "dont bite the hand that feeds you"
Oh my, after watching what may be the best video yet, I can only imagine what Mr. Mitchell and clan would be capable of with a few beers, a bonfire and a good ol’fashioned boom box 📻
Mike Mitchell: "stop laughing at me" Viewers: We are not laughing at you we are laughing at the fact that John Deere can't make hood latches that are Mike Mitchell approved.
We have a JD 6190R, I'm almost afraid to pop the hood and even check the oil (they used to have nice doors on the side of the hood, but nooo). On that one at least it's insanely difficult to get it to freakin' latch. I have no clue why it's the same style hood or maybe we got a lemon.
Hey Mike, on the reversible fan. It's a different fan, the fan blades actually move to change the pitch. The fan does not change the direction it's spinning, just the pitch of the blades.
I guess similar to an airplane propeller, the pilot can alter the pitch during flight to a more aggressive stance, & I also believe totally set the pitch to enable reverse thrust in order to aid braking upon landing. 🛩️
One of the funniest videos I have seen in a long time. Glad you can keep yourself amused whilst having the responsibility you have of getting that there seed in the ground. Keep on singing Mike you will make it one day
Mike i'm super curious about your farming strategies when planting is so dry. Do you plant normally and hope for the best?Perhaps lean more to crops that can cope with drought? Maybe reduce fertilizer rates, then add more if/when it rains?
Hey Mike with your hood on the 9RX try pushing down to the "BLOCK" portion on the bottom of the grill while pulling the hood latch and it opens a lot easier
Clan MacNeil checking in. This has been one of your better VLOGs due to the ending. Keep entertaining us! BTW, from my daughter years ago when she was taking Spanish in High School: "El bano es en fuego" which translates to "the bathroom is on FIRE.". That is all...
Ha, that's the most Canadian thing I can think of: apologizing X times for just having fun with friends! If I ever wanted to do maintenance of Borgault drill in the middle of nowhere on freezy winter day, that would be the time, to join you. You guys are awesome! P.s.: Try some Russian next time. I'm sure You'd nail it!
the 1050 transmission is split in 2 so in a turn it can speed up the front when need it can also lock the front and back together to get better traction and when traveling at speed the front drive stops and the front axle is disconnected form the transmission so it free wheels for better fuel economy. also the turning via speeding up the front wheels is called a pull in turn others have done it but there clunky.
Don’t worry boys! You have a conversation that everyone that’s been on a multi-culture crew has ever had. You had the universal Beach Boy lingo down pat. Keep up the good work, and don’t be apologetic for the content that shows you and your team are good humans. God bless, and good speed.
Get a chunk of blue silicon hose that's a little bigger then your hydraulic hose, slit it in half and put it over the hose. Then zip tie it or tape it. Any rubbing will be on the silicon hose.
Ha Ha Ha, you asked British friend to say something English he came up with “Hellllloooo”, after saying “social biscuit” after eating a pringles. That British guy is tooo coool. So is the Big “Dutchman".............. great video...........
That fitting will be fine Mike. JIC fittings like that seal on the taper inside the fitting not the treads in the nut so as long as it tightens up you golden.
Mike, on the Quadtrack there is a wire rope underneath. Is that connected to the back section so if it sticks you pull the back section out which pushes the front? Thanks for shoring with us.
Scottish: "Fit like?" = how are you, in the north east of Scotland. As for gaelic, it's not spoken on the east coast any more but on the western isles it is. The reply to 'fit like' would be 'nae bad' (not bad) or 'scanner' (fed up).
This channel is amazing! Love the way you explain about all that goes around on a big *ss farm. A little tip for Rickels; just say: "Ik ben een kaaskop uit Nederland" (I'm a cheesehead from the Netherlands) 👍 Maybe you could visit Tony Beets (from Gold Rush, Discovery Channel) sometiime. He still speaks Dutch very well. ps When can we find "The Mitchells Gang" on Spotify? 😜
Good deal they made a hybrid that'll germinate in the Arctic. Crazy year. Even here, 500 miles straight south. Cold and dry. Basically terrible conditions for growing anything. I'd prefer warm and MOISSST. Lol. But...I don't make the rules.
Accumulators help with low speed, low RPM steering. Without accumulators the hydraulic pump can't keep up at low speed especially when turning lock to lock.
I'm surprised that being in Canada, you don't have any versatile tractors. Have you demo'd them before?? Could you put old sections of garden hose over the hydraulic line to help save the life of the line.
Be careful with that fendt because fendt stopped production in Marktoberdorf and Asbach-Bäumenheim, so you will not get a new Fendt :.) if your one is broken...
Grampa always said nothing is greased unless grease is on the tires.. talking old grease guns from the 60s, 70s, they leaked like a sieve if not air locked. So always whipping grease hose against tire to clean excess black as coal grease off hose. Weaker zerk tips I guess plus just didn’t change out zerks back than when they wore out since typically kept machines 15 years.
It’s about time you got some culture on this channel Mitchell! Nice to see an englander out there. Ask him if he is blue or red, just don’t call him a scouser! Lots of love from a English immigrant in Canada. ❤️ Ps. Don’t give up your day job.
Get a bicycle tire tube, cut it lengthwise, wrap it around the hydraulic hose for about five inches to keep the other hose from rubbing against it and use bailing wire to secure each end of the tube. Repeat on the other hose. One bicycle tire tube can be used to protect multiple hoses that are rubbing against each other. Replacing worn bicycle tire tube is far cheaper and much easier than replacing the more expensive hoses.
Common Mike, you never read those labels in your tractor cab ,or on your pickup sun visor . We have all done it on a 18 hour shift seeding for a month advertisement + achtung = warning
Honest question what advantage is it to run the high HP MFD tractor with triples and duals on the front as opposed to an articulated tractor with duals or triples?
John Deere.!!. Are you listening.??.... Cut a 2"x6" slot in the bottom corner of the hoods on your tractors, so folks don't get their fingers crushed.!😭😭😭!. Honestly.. if the designers had to use these tractors they develop, there'd be ALL SORTS of changes made.!🤣🤬🤣!. Same with the implements.!!. LOVE THE VIDS KEEP'EM COMING RICH(UK) 🥰🥰🥰.
Drove a Kubota Tractor here in Germany, and suddenly on the main road the Hood pops up and I couldn't see S**t. I'm happy with my deer Hood, this will. Never be happen there, just to Frickin heavy 😂
What r u guy's smokin out in them fields ??? 😆 😆 Everyone needs to have fun !!! Hope u have a safe n productive planting season !!!

One of the best quotes I've read in a long time. Wise man.
Here’s on we can live in a world without celebrities and professional sports but we can’t live in a world with out farmers
If people get offended by anything you said, they need to reevaluate their weak minds.
I need a safe space. Words are violence. 🙄😬
It's just gonna get better.

thanks for a great laugh here in England Mike. You ned to laugh changing drill parts on the wet windy days.
Hello from Yorkton, Saskatchewan, Canada. Great show’s thanks for sharing with us.
Please keep them coming you make us Canadians proud.
I’m glad you cleared up that Lee was from England, I just thought he talked like that because he was cold.😂
Hey Mike with your hood on the 9RX try pushing down to the "BLOCK" portion on the bottom of the grill while pulling the hood latch and it opens a lot easier
All I can say to the end of that is WOW. 🤣
Looks like the seeding craziness is settling in early this year!
Hahahaha, that was a great little melody to wake up to.
I’m from England, near Stone Henge, came to Canada in 07, glad to see you are hiring people from all over.

Your german was on point Mike, kind of :D Greetings from Germany, I feel highly offended (not)
Ha! 😂
But the dutch was awefully german😂😂
Yeah, the Dutch was German!🤣🤣🤣
The last ten seconds is what happens when you ingest too much hydraulic oil
the 1050 transmission is split in 2 so in a turn it can speed up the front when need it can also lock the front and back together to get better traction and when traveling at speed the front drive stops and the front axle is disconnected form the transmission so it free wheels for better fuel economy. also the turning via speeding up the front wheels is called a pull in turn others have done it but there clunky.

Haha I ll try not too!
Ok, it as to be really cold outside that particular morning 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Frozen brains and exhaust fumes? Trying to find an out for you guys, very funny and I needed that.
Being Scottish my self seeing him trying to put on a Scottish accent made me laugh 🤣
The dryness is almost like we've got where i am in west Aus. Just slightly warmer
Love watching this from a point that i actually run one everyday, i totally agree with the air and filter system :)
You guys crack me up!! Glad to see the lighter side of farming.
That fitting will be fine Mike. JIC fittings like that seal on the taper inside the fitting not the treads in the nut so as long as it tightens up you golden.
question about dual vs triples etc... why just just duals with fat tires? isnt just massive tires better than more smaller ones?
Hilarious ending! haha Thanks to Lee and Rickels for their contributions. Loved it!
Haha thanks! 😂
"We're losing subscribers" earned a thumbs up! :D
everything has a name! To funny. I love this channel! Cheers from a Florida tomato farmer.

I think your tractor's fan has more HP than my 31' Ford... outstanding videos.. I have to move out to the country again...
Thank you guys!!! I sure needed that today 😂😂
Awesome video Mike ! I can tell you have a very good relationship with your guys the way you joke around and have fun
So Mike, Ashtyn will have big arm muscles (and other things) after driving this beast with double fronts this seeding season :) :)
Awesome language lesson, even better karaoke, you guys are awesome. Stay warm and safe. See you next time
9:05 *THIRTY MINUTES LATER* lol hahahahahahahahahahaa

I've heard of the three tenors, but you'all are even better! 😂
I always make sure that the tires end up with more grease then the bearings 😂
Gotta keep the tires greased so can just slip through the mud instead of getting stuck
That last little bit reminds me of being on a sleep deprived fire watch. The looks that the officer gave us when he checked on us. lol
Mike. Do you seed every field every year or do you do like in Montana skip one field to get more misiture and seed next year instead?
Everything every year..
This channel is amazing! Love the way you explain about all that goes around on a big *ss farm.

ps When can we find "The Mitchells Gang" on Spotify? 😜
Will you be getting more hats (merch)? I like the green snap back but it’s sold out.
We sold out in like a couple days 😂but yes, we will restock, it will go to Patreon first, and then UA-cam 🙂
But after seeding
Hey Mike, what gear are you using? (jacket and gloves)
The subscribers just doubled from this video alone due to comedic content. 🤣
So why do so many people in the flatlands use those Agco 1000's instead of articulated tractors?
I’ve been a nascar mechanic for 20 years and watch you for entertainment 🤣 we do 4tires and gas in 11 1/2 seconds by the way
Maybe I missed it, but why did you sell the Case quadtracs? (Now you conquered Ashton, you don't see the need for them anymore?)
He said that having too many serious mechanical issues with their Case quads was the reason for trying the John Deeres.

Germany
What brand of winter clothes do you wear? Is it German made?
OMG, I'm embarrassed for you guys, I still love your energy, you are all ace, keep them coming Mike, Ashtyn is doing a great job also.
Mike...I have a question. If the 1050 might get stuck with duals...why did you put the triples on if you weren't driving it? :D
The short-radius steering system was introduced by Kubota years ago : )
Greetings from Germany. The opening System on the Hood of the Fendt is a regulation from the European Union. They wanted to make the machines saver.
Hi Mike, Pascal, from France, we love you too, you"re awesome, don't change anything....
