aTrippyFarmer and the crew are back to bring you more farming adventures! In this episode, Andy works to complete the pre-season maintenance on the John Deere harvesting equipment. One John Deere Flex Draper needs some work done, but, other than that, the combines and headers are mostly ready to harvest. Andy pulls out the J&M Grain Cart from storage to prepare for its exit from the farm. The next morning the crew is greeted by their brand new J&M 1222 Grain Cart on tracks. It is the perfect combination for their newly acquired John Deere 8R370 tractor. Andy pairs the two together, and he wires up some of the supplemental equipment that makes harvesting easier. Andy finishes the video by mowing some road sides. Thanks for watching!

Andy “aTrippyFarmer” Dole is a 6th generation farmer from Central Illinois. On this farm, Andy works alongside his father, Marty, his uncles, Chris and Jeff, and his sister, Katie, to grow corn and soybeans on some of the finest dirt in the world. Andy and his family are deeply rooted in the area, operating a large farm that traces it origins back into the 1800s. Although some tracts did not stand the test of time, Andy and his family still grow corn and soybeans on fields that have been in the family for longer than even the oldest members of the farm have been alive. We do, we have, and we always will take tremendous pride in calling this piece of paradise our home. Andy was a Bronze Tablet graduate of the University of Illinois in the field of Crop Sciences, following the same path as his father and late grandfather.
It would be misleading for Andy to claim that this life is one that came by chance; rather, as a member of two multi-generational farm families, it was simply in his blood. His passion for agriculture traces back to his early youth–some of his fondest, earliest memories being of days spent riding in the combine with his father and grandfather. Although his understanding of the lifestyle was much less complex in the beginning, the love he has for farming, and its industry has only appreciated through time. As this dream blossomed into adulthood, Andy now works relentlessly, and tirelessly, to chase his own dreams and to build a farming operation of his own alongside his family.
We, as a whole operation, are handymen, electricians, mechanics, landscapers, accountants, economists, caretakers, stewards, and, most importantly, farmers, and we take an incredible amount of pride in our work. There is no challenge too overwhelming, no situation too stressful, and no problem too difficult for us to take on, and we want to take you along with us. Welcome to our farm and welcome to our lives. You have the best seat in the house to watch the everyday chaos of farming unfold–we usually only get concerned when things aren’t going wrong!

Hey trippy thanks for another great video! Really like the looks of the New Black cart and I'm sure the tracks will be a major benefit. I'm sure you're looking forward to running the new 370, but I have to question your reasoning going from a articulated four-wheel drive with more weight, power and visibility to a mfwd tractor?
Does two broken sickles make a broken bicycle?
I have a broken bicycle but no draper.
Thank you for the video. Is there a little more meat on your bones than last year? Watch cooking? Hopefully you’re getting ready rain we are missing.
I just checked your weather and to my surprise. Your area went from no rain in the near future to the possibility of rain for the next 11 days. Hopefully you'll get the nessary rain to make Big Daddy Beans and Colossal Corn Kurnels. I can't wait to watch you harvesting crops.
Be interesting to hear your views on soil compaction issues given how massive these machines have now become. The US economy is now massively deflating…something that hasn't happened since the Dust Bowl Days of the 1930s but yeah a lot of people are in for a real shock as to just how low prices can go given how massive the bubble that is now deflating…by far the largest ever seen in Human History.
Ten cent loaves of freshly baked bread are quickly becoming back to normative all across the USA now.
Trying to unwind a market corner is simply not possible the last time this be have happen being criminal collapse of Solomon Brothers in the 1980s that made Warren Buffet both rich and famous and brought all of New York City to the brink of TOTAL RUIN in just 3 days in 1987.
That mere event PALES in comparison to the current situation.
That's right, Douglas County reigns. Named after my 3 great grandfather. Bwahahah. Just kidding
That's a really sweet looking grain cart. Nice upgrade!

Lol way to make a stand on the $80 plug. I guessing you didn't want to leave empty handed so how many cans of $20 window cleaner did you get?
Do the tracks on the new grain cart just "Free Wheel" or are they powered by the PTO shaft? Just dawned on me I guess the PTO shaft is only for the auger to unload the cart.
Well needed rain is coming in Hot !!!
Nice looking grain cart! That black does look good 👍
👍
Good luck with harvest this fall! Nice looking equipment!!
Great video love the John Deere green!
Hey!! You got a new and bigger grain cart!
Edit: I noticed that you went with a Single auger green card what is your reasoning behind that?
Oil is cheap I’d change it every year
Andy I appreciate the camera shot of the old cart leaving the farm for the last time. It's cool how farm tubers document the changing of equipment on the farm. 👍 Good luck with harvest this fall.
Did you just say centimeters? Hell yeah, metric FTW! o/
God Bless you Brother and your Family with a smooth comfortable decent Harvest with minimal complications and breakdown in Jesus Name! ❤️😌🖖🏼🇺🇸
Some serious good looking kit. Great video. Greetings from Ireland.
🤗
Oh, the excitement and happiness during calibration of the Draper ….. NOT 🤣🤣🤣
Sorry for laughing, but the tone of yours voice was so different than usual😊👍
I really hope to see your channel blow up like Larson farms did. Keep up the good work!
Great looking grain cart !!!
I like that you keep your equipment so clean
I like the clean shaven face! Found the shaver on the front of the old grain cart?
Nice cart…will be quite the upgrade with tracks and 2 ft extension
Nice addition ! Nice video
just wondering how far and how fast the dealer pulled the new cart with tracks? do you lube them with talc before road use?
I’m excited for you! Harvest season mud was hard to watch…although it seems a lot of viewers love when someone gets stuck. It’s hard for me to visualize how big & tall equipment is. The grain cart must be really tall bc it was way above your head when you were standing on it.
Hell Yeah Trippy S W E E T Grain Cart nice Tracks & Great Color
Great job Andy! Love your sense of humor, it's top shelf!
What an Awesome line up of equipment you guys have!!!!! and it all sits inside, sweet!! can't wait till harvest time comes to see all that shiny equipment in the field !!! stay Safe!!! Farm On!
Also, our local JD dealership sells MacDon headers. That says it all
Ditch the JD Draper and buy a new MacDon. A much, much better header. I’ve used them both and MacDon is far superior. In fact, JD has been copying MacDon for several years. Just saying
