- When you work in agriculture (whether you're a farmer or a dealership), you never know what each day will bring - where you will go, what you will do, or who you will meet. This fall season, I've had the pleasure of working with long-time UA-camr @onelonleyfarmer himself, Mr. Wes Pandy, on a deal for a new Great Plains 2400 TurboMax vertical tillage machine. He plans to use it year-round as a "mechanical cow", which will help to "rough up" the first 1-1.5" of soil and residue for planting his cover crops.
Two months ago, he called the dealership where I work, and was looking to price out a new 24' TurboMax to pull behind his John Deere 8530. I visited him and his wife Theresa on the farm, checked out his fields and some of the units he wanted to trade, and we worked out a deal on a new 2400TM which we had in stock. He picked it up at our store in Middletown, DE with his Ford F-550 (7.3 Powerstroke/ZF-6 combo for the win), and hauled it home to New Jersey last week. A few days later, we came down to the farm to get the new TurboMax set up and adjusted for his field conditions, and get it out in the field for the first time. This video features some of the video clips I took that afternoon while we were breaking in that new green paint - you will see us adjusting the hydraulic pressure acting on the implement itself, as well as setting the proper flowrate (from the tractor) - all necessary steps to take when setting up a piece of tillage equipment and putting it out in a new field.
It's been a pleasure doing business with Wes and Theresa and I am glad to have had the opportunity to meet them and help them out. If you haven't already, please go check out their channel and give them a like and subscribe!
Dude! That's Awesome that you got to ride in the cab with the one and only onelonelyfarmer!
Definitely a cool opportunity!
That’s great you got to do business with Wes👍
I've watched a bunch of his videos. Enjoyed about all. lol Thanks for sharing.
Great video. So happy you got a chance to meet One Lonely Farmer face to face👍
Me too!
Your very lucky. He has a great channel. Up in the hills of Hurterdon county. Definely cool doing business with him. That F550 7.3 power sounds great on his video pulling it dispite the fact of the throw out bearing while putting in gear.
awesome video man, congrats on the sale to an awesome customer
Thanks!
Really enjoyed watching your video!
Thanks for sharing!
I have a question: You know what diameter the rolling baskets in the back of Wes' Turbo Max are?
Thanks for watching! The rolling baskets are 10" diameter with the flat chopping bars.
@@MichaelTJD60 Got you! Thanks!
Michael, are you still in New Jersey? I am in Pa and I am a chemical engineer. After I was run over 18 months ago on my 1957 Harley Panhead by a Ford F350 I decided that I am starting a welding/fabrication and machining business . Right now I am swamped with repairs on some engine drive welders. I am currently rebuilding a Lincwelder 225, then a Weldanpower 150, a bobcat 250 and.....My goal is to set up a machine shop that is run by steam with the belts and things from the 1800's. I would love to talk to you sometime. We will be doing mobile welding as soon as I get the welding rig built as well. Congratulations on the sale my friend.
Thanks John! Sorry to hear about your accident but glad you are on the mend. I live in PA now but get back to NJ several times a week for work (as you see in the video) and to visit family. I may need a mobile welder in the future so will definitely keep you in mind!
@@MichaelTJD60 Heck yea my friend. I am in Phoenixville. Are you out in Western Pa or out this way near King of Prussia. It seems that we are losing our small engine mechanics. They are retiring, moving down to Florida or doing nothing. My idea was to start the welding fabrication business and then the accident made me reconsider all the contortions and climbing on equipment for now. I have a 4x4 Ranger that I welded the frame rails on and put a flatbed on as well. I am mounting a Miller Bobcat 225, gas powered air compressor, a smaller job box, a drill press, a Swordfish Vise and crane. Since it is fall all of a sudden people needed welders to be repaired and restored. I am also building a Welding trailer with the same equipment I listed for my Ranger. We should get together sometime.
@@Biokemist-o3k I'm in Lancaster County about an hour west of you. What a small world. I have a Lincoln 225 tombstone welder that I inherited from my uncle, it works OK but probably needs gone through. I'd like to invest in a good used Mig welder one of these days. That's what I learned on.
What happened with the x570?
My dad still mows every week with it. It's a little rough now with 620ish hours on it but still gets the job done.
What speed do you run the PTO at?
lol
Pick your own speed LOL
Do you have an Instagram page
No Instagram here. Never was a fan of it.
