My 2 year old son and I enjoy watching your videos of the animals and tractors at work on your farm. Word of advice: upgrade your camera when you can. Your videos are noticeably more grainy than most other channels we watch.
The videos will be of better quality going forward. Thank you for supporting the channel!
Hello Sean how are you doing?
I love how you explained the story behind the tractors and so much more! Keep it up
Thanks, will do!
Glad to see the next generation taking over the farm. Congratulations!
Thank you!
For the number of views people need to subscribe . It cost you nothing so help out a young man and his family! My family moved off the farm in 1969 I sure miss it.
Thank you for your support!
my neighbor just bought his family farm. a lot of that older equipment you have that you said would probably go to scrap? well i convinced my neighbor to post his on craigs list its free he was actually surprised what he got for a lot of his equipment he didnt want. waaaaaay more than what he would of got for scrap.
MINNESOTA MACHINERY WAS GOOD BECAUSE IT TAUGHT PRISONERS HOW TO WELD AND MAKE STUFF AND THEY HAD SKILLS WHEN THEY GOT DONE SERVING TIME SO THEY WOULD NOT BE A BURDEN TO OTHER PEOPLE.
Very very nice looking equipment shape they are in being that old means were well cared for and not abused my friend in fact they will hang with any newer stuff out there today believe me, in fact likely better than computer and def. diesels you are now forced to buy and use today looks like money well spent young man.
IF YOU CAN RUN AND GET BY WITH THE OLDER EQUIPMENT AND OPERATE EFFICIENTLY THAT IS REALLY GOOD AND KEEEP YOUR OPERATING EXPENSES DOWN AND KEEP DEBT DOWN. ALWAYS BETTER TO BE PAYING DEBT ON LAND AND LAND IMPROVEMENTS RATHER THAN MACHINERY. EQUIPMENT DOES WEAR OUT. REALESTATE WILL ALAYS BE THERE IF YOU CAN TAKE CARE OF IT AND BUILD UP THE FERTILITY.
Congrqts, i got a 7000-74 and its a great traktor with 94 hp sae and the 7700 is 97 hp sae. Seen prices in USA on both of them and they are low in those amazing conditions they would ve worth a lot over here in europe.
Great purchase and good luck with all equipment.👍
Hey Curt. Just found your channel. Look forward to your fieldwork plans. My wife and I both worked off the farm for many years while building our cow/calf operation. Retired and farming full time three hundred acres in central MN. Id suggest a modern cab tractor with FWD and working heat and AC for baling and tillage. ( and a buddy seat for a little helper) You’ll thank me at age 50 when you can still breathe😊
Congratulations
Thanks!
Good luck
Thankyou 😊
Congratulations on the next Journey on the family farm operation
Thank you!
Just found your channel. Really enjoy you telling the equipment information I subscribed
Thanks for sharing, keep us updated.😊
Will do!
Very enjoyable video. Good luck. I love seeing people buy pre-used equipment.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hours are only a guide at best our 806 at 18k hours was still going strong with having only regular maintenance while we had it,, the 1066 got at 100 hours and when I retired had 4709 hours friend sold to still has it and it's at 13k hours untouched other than just the regular maintenance
Congratulations on your machinery purchase and good luck with your future plans
Thank you!
That 7700 was a beautiful unit .we had to put dual on it in the field. Paid 27,000.cdn
Good luck !!
Thanks!!
Congratulations! Great video!👍🏻
Thank you!
If I was in your position I would be sorely tempted to consolidate down to the 3 Ford tractors and yellow loader. The Perkins MF should fetch a pretty penny for the engine alone - you could then use the money to modernise your implements / buy other fords to canabalise to keep your ford fleet going.
thats a nice MF 1085
Nice stuff and congratulation
Thanks!
Lovely vid
Thank you!
LIVE LIKE NO ONE ELSE SO THAT YOU CAN LIVE LIKE NO ONE ELSE! WORDS TAKEN FROM DAVE RAMSEY
Those old fords will be running long after any new tractors are dead and gone. We have a 6700 with a loader. It’s got over 8000 hours.
The Ford 7000 is a 95 hp turbocharged tractor.
just saw the tillage video, you need to invest into a of clamp-on duals for that 7700, give the il' girl a fighting chance with some more grip and she'll good.
I’ll keep an eye out for a set. Thanks!
Hello Kurt, I am excited to see how your farm grows. I do have a question, why in the video with the cattle did you have the calf tied to the pole? Is that because you don't yet have a calving stall that keeps the calf in one place? Curious why. Look forward to more stories and adventures. Also, there is nothing wrong with old equipment for sure. I grew up on a farm in north central Illinois and know all too well the trials of old machinery. The good thing for us was that my father could make anything work with baling wire and a set of fence pliers. Take care
I would like to know this as well. It made me uncomfortable but maybe there’s a reason. I follow Farmer Tyler Ranch so maybe I have my expectations too high. And definitely not a ring in the nose. 😂🥴 but I subbed anyhow cuz I support good young families taking on their family’s farms ❤
He was just tied up briefly. I just wanted him on camera before he ran off. Thank you for supporting the channel!
@@allysonh6410expectations too high because of ftr? You mean like letting his cattle wade around in knee and belly deep 💩 every wet season because he is overstocked ? If you’re ok watching that you should be fine !
@@Florida239 ??? He does not do that. You haven’t watched for awhile AND you’re exaggerating anyhow. He handles the whole heart by himself. That is testimony alone of his good care to them.
Go bark up somebody else’s tree cuz FTR takes great care of his cattle. 💯
@@allysonh6410 he definitely lets them
Wade knee dip in mud and manure there have been several comments about it on his channel he’s never responded to go look for yourself doesn’t matter to me be your own judge have a good one
how did you find a purchase like that like on facebook marketplace
How big is your farm?
175 acres.
what about the ford jubilee
That's a Ford 901. I wasn't able to buy it.
Sell that old farm equipment that you are going to scrap
Hello Spencer how are you doing?
Will do!
BOUGHT not “bot”.
Bought and bot are not homonyms.
Going no-till or minimum till won't you have to use a lot of chemicals to control weeds? How does that effect an organic rating or claim or is the organic title just something as a marketing gimmick?
The organic title is not a gimmick. It involves lots of paperwork and inspections to be certified. To do minimal and no- till while being organic will have its challenges, however, thru the use of cover crops and proper rotation I believe it can be done. I'm sure I'll have some triumphs and failures. Stay tuned.
You tractor poor. Only need two good tractors one with a quick detach loader
LOL.
