Thanks for the video. I’m a 66 year old retired builder with a serious allergy to bullshit. From watching you I can tell we’re very like minded. I am so glad I found your channel
i picked up milk for over 20 years,farm stops,people have no common sense or respect for no one,backing in many stops,4 ways an spot light backups,still dam near run into me or try to pass,i got to the point i just start backing up,the hell with them all
I used to drive big rigs for a living. Before, when I retired in 1995 you could see the changes coming. People coming from other countries and many don't speak English you could see the different driving. Now days it is even worse. Thanks for the video.
i use to farm on a busy highway and countless times people would do the same, once i had a car try to pass me as i''m turning left on double yellow line, then a second car decides to try and pass the car that's trying to pass me. sooo i turned and both cars ended up in ditch i drove on. the most priceless moment was i was ready to pull onto the highway and a cop stops in front of me tells me i shouldn't be on the road because the cars are doing 120km (speed limit 80km) told the cop he should check my chains and lights and see if i am road worthy, he did a circle check then he quickly changed his tune told me to be careful and wished me a good day
One thing we didn't have this year was volunteer corn. Guess it was too dry. Left hand turns off the highways are the worst. I just about ran over some guys trunk while making a left and he decided to pass. Another time a lady ended up in the ditch. They're stupid here too.
I had a woman and her daughter run into the side of my shit spreader one year years ago when we had the dairy I was turning onto my road and she decided to pass me while I was turning onto my road completely moronic
We farmers with tractors and equipment have as much right on the road as any motorist in a car/truck, and deserve the same respect. However, we don't seem to get that respect and are treated like a nuisance.
That is not entirely true. Some areas have laws against equipment on roadways. When you drive this idiot in the video hogging the right lane then you are a nuisance and breaking the law.
It’s unbelievable how much it has changed when you are out on the road in the past twenty years or so. No patience! About 6 miles to my furthest field and I hate it every time. Have a good day Andy
I totally get you on. “stupid fucking people“! We have a blind intersection near our place, if I had a dollar for every time somebody has almost hit me when I go to turn out onto the road, I could buy a section I swear! My next pet peeve is software updates, why do they send the stuff out brand new, if it isn’t fully updated? I’m going to my nephews graduation tomorrow, his name is also Andrew.
You can set a combine on fire and drive it down the road and people still won’t pay attention. Just because it’s a slow moving vehicle people don’t understand that it’s still illegal to pass on a double yellow line.
I recognized the state rd (370) scenery you were driving on in the video. Amen on the road rage these drivers have. It's getting worse instead of better. Wait til your neighbors don't want you to plant , spray or harvest your crop on your schedule.
@@NonTypicalRacing I wish I was in the window or roofing business. We have roofers driving in over 3 hours away to roof homes and no telling when they will get enough glass to fix all the windows blown out north of town. I get a new roof on the house, and shop along with garage doors. Of course they will raise everybody’s insurance rates because they can and how dare they have to pay out right. Andy tells it like it is, he’s a good ol boy. We need more of them. Have a great weekend friend.
When I was a kid, we had an old Allis Chalmers drag type combine with not even one sensor or on-board computer!! Imagine that. It had a drive belt on the back of it a mile long but other than that, it was simple and pretty much trouble free. When it did have issues, you could for sure reason your way through them without calling the IT guy. There is a lot to be said about the KISS principle. (Keep It Simple Stupid, in case you don't remember)
That's why I like my 36 yr old combine. No computers, a GM alternator and several LED lights. There is nothing to update when removing kernels of corn from an ear or removing beans from a bean pod. I been combining for 50 yrs of farming and have wore out 3 combines in that time. None of them had a dam computer!
I had the same problems with idiots on the road when I was contract fencing . I always wore my seatbelt on the open road as I saw a clip of a driver being ejected through the windshield after a car hit his dual wheel, the force seems to be multiplied through the tyre.
Been driving trucks 25+ years, your opinions are very much shared. I sometimes wondervif they even train them anymore. As far as the general public, its been known for years, some want a 100 spot, and you're off to the races....
Andy you had me rolling on the floor laughing. man people getting near a piece of farm equipment on Highway and they just disconnect from their brain. 😂😂
@@norman7179some only care about getting where they’re going as fast as possible problem is they might be getting to meet their maker quicker than what they want to and the sad part is they might be taking somebody else along with them
Hey for your talent search Larson farms has the big Sweed not sure of his status. But I think the gals will find him favorable So maybe he can help with that As far as your mower deck There was a company making solid tires out of old conveyor belts All cut and stacked then rapped around the rim I drug one around for a couple of years and they held up I didn’t have to road mine much if I needed to go very far I just trailed it There is also the people who make the solid tires for bobcats that should work pretty good as well
A couple years ago I was following my kid with the pick up, flashers on, and about 100 feet out of a round about a car skids by on the shoulder staring at me like it's my fault that they don't pay attention. So yes people are stupid!
I feel your pain with the traffic issues Andy. I am glad to be 67 and not planning on having all that many years left to deal with it. It is astonishing to me when I have more regard for someone’s safety than they do for themselves.
Tube tires on a bush hog is garbage. My grandfather put what he called AIRPLANE tires on old bush hog we had back in the 70’s. Bush hogging yep done my share of it. Most dangerous job ever if you don’t have a cab. And I never was rich enough to have a cab.
I love that you talk to traffic exactly the same way that I do. Drives the wife crazy. I also have to add that I am thoroughly enjoying the effect that my new Grumpy Farmer shirt has on the liberals that read it and roll their eyes. Makes me feel a bit more American inside each time I see that. Guess I need a few more shirts. Gob Bless You Andy, Take Care.
I live in the country and drive around eight miles to work and not a day goes by where at least a half a dozen idiots don’t piss me off going there and back. There is no common sense or awareness of others it’s all about them.
Here in Ontario you can get charged for passing on a solid line. You can only pass on a broken yellow line. I'm not sure if thats the case there Andy. But fuckers still pass. Lol
For sure, there is a couple generations of idiot drivers on the road today! Bought a combine about 60 miles from home at auction. Picked it up early on a Saturday morning and headed home. A friend asked if I had been on that hwy lately, got to be off the road by 9 am, for sure by 10. That is when the kids heading home from college traffic hits. He wasn't kidding, passing in the ditch on both sides, had a gal drove right up against wheel with he bumper under the header for over a mile till I got to a safe ditch to pull off the road. Comming down a long hill between guard rails, a friend had traffic stopped. A kid drives around everybody ignoring friend parked across road and comes right on up! I just etopped! I don't know how, but she somehow squeeked by/under the end of a 30 ft. header. 🤯
Farmer wants to find a wife....... How about farmer wants to give one away?🤣🤣🤣 That traffic is something I don't miss from back East.... Everytime I think of moving back close to family...., That's my biggest obstacle, I don't play well with others... To bad people have ruined good farming areas building houses...... I guess basements are a profitable crop. Take care Andy
I worked in IT for decades, bought a backup drive for a server one time for a bank. It worked one night and failed the next. I finally called IBM to try to figure it out. After finally getting someone I could understand he told me it needed a firmware update. I said, but I just bought it. He told me it may have sat in a warehouse for years and therefore never updated. I guess ya learn something new every day.
Andy: same b.s. here in Florida with the way idiots drive. Some one came out of nowhere the other day and proceeded to make a U-turn smack dab in the middle of the highway, shocked no one hit them especially me having to hit the brakes
I was almost rear ended my a dump truck who didnt slow down to my speed ( i was driving a 4850 pulling a broken batwing mower) i had to pull over at full speed between to mailboxes to avoid him hitting me

You mean the lawn hasn't been mowed sense you stopped by. Remind her of the rocks out by the power pole. Noticed your cousins place on the east to Plainfield. Also are you planning on upgrading to the seven blade brush hog. Yes I'm a smart ass. At least that is what you called me. Haha
You can add Berryman Seal-R Tire sealant to the tubes.. won't help ripping a valve stem off but any nails or leaks it should plug it. Run it in my ATV in the desert where we get all sorts of hole makers. esp the mesquite & prickly pear.. also my car.
Not sure if it says when each software version was released (date/time stamp) but usually are stability/compatibility improvements to match the hardware... could be something wasn't supported at the time and now is. Just like software updates on a phone... there's a lot. At least with equipment you're not forced, along the lines of if everything is working DON'T update anything. But if something isn't working right, doesn't hurt to try to update.
Driving idiots out there now days, I sometimes go 3 miles out of the way here so I don't have to make a left hand turn 😒 or deal with the stupidity when you have to hold a stop/ slow paddle as part of my job 🙄🤬🤬
Hi Andy, thanks for another great video. I have a dumb question to ask. What exactly is "volunteer" corn or wheat, etc? I never heard that phrase before.
It’s generally corn that may have come out of the combine, or an ear of corn that was knocked on the ground that the following year starts to regrow in your bean field that you planted in this case, it was because of my F up of not cleaning out the bottom of the seed tender before I switched to beans that’s why the field across from my shop it’s in nice straight rows because I wound up planting it with the bean drill. Basically you don’t want it there.
Not where the people that passed me on the right it wasn’t not where the tractor trailer that almost took my front end out it wasn’t yes where the first tractor-trailer passed me it was
Back in the 50's with our 5 ft. Allis pull type combine there weren't any software updates to fool with LOL, but road traffic?..........there was no speed limit and a lot people would drive at 90 mph (and a hell of lot of them died as a result).
Well here in southwestern Pennsylvania grumpy there is a saying knee high by the 4th of July you're doing fine and if yours is already waist-high and chest-high by the 4th of July that's great I think I like the flag wasn't me though😊😊
@@TheGrumpyFarmeri wonder where in the US that saying came from cause I would think your growing season would be shorter than like the bottom third of the US.
Yea I have people blowing by me when I’m driving down the road. Pulling my 85 foot airseeder. They can’t wait till I turn they have to almost cause an accident Happens all tbe time.
How many acres do you farm sir? Over 100 degrees here today, I can’t wait. I retired 6 years ago and just went back to work in May. I got so bored and lazy, I needed some structure. I just wish I was younger. Have a good day unless you made other plans.
Bored? Holy smokes I have a lot of hobbies and hate being around people. I love not working! I bike a lot on my local bike trail and smoke pipes/cigars and sit in the backyard getting a tan. I would hate going to work now.
@@germanwarrior6463 I’ve got atv’s, a Harley, an enclosed swimming pool with hot tub and sauna, I’ve got a 40x120 shop with a couple of antique cars, tools, hunting and fishing gear, refrigerator full of beer and other stuff. I’m just mentioning this because I retired at the age of 51 and after 6 years, there was just something missing. I don’t know how long I will last in the workforce but I know I don’t have to do it, I like doing it right now. Have a great weekend sir.
@@_DB.COOPER Wow, you got more toys and things to do than me..Lol I quit working for the man in 2020 at 47yrs old. I couldn't do it no more and now work for myself and rather have freedom over money any day. Yeah, I make a lot less, but not have to worry about other retards and driving in the snow is great. Sometimes I do nothing but sit in the sun and relax all day with no care in the world. I think people today need to just slow down and relax a bit. We are programmed to be obedient drones that only worry about working and money, not healthy. Different strokes for different folks I guess. I would absolute HATE working normal again! I feel my life is well over half over, so why not spend the rest on easy mode. I worked since I was 12 so, worked enough like a slave long enough. Life is short to work all the time. Take care.

Geez you sound like me driving in Connecticut.
It’s insane
You can add Berryman Seal-R Tire sealant to the tubes.. won't help ripping a valve stem off but any nails or leaks it should plug it. Run it in my ATV in the desert where we get all sorts of hole makers. esp the mesquite & prickly pear.. also my car.
Cool 👍🏻
Not sure if it says when each software version was released (date/time stamp) but usually are stability/compatibility improvements to match the hardware... could be something wasn't supported at the time and now is. Just like software updates on a phone... there's a lot. At least with equipment you're not forced, along the lines of if everything is working DON'T update anything. But if something isn't working right, doesn't hurt to try to update.
All too complicated
Central Indiana is just as bad with idiot drivers too!!! Makes it fun to move equipment around.
And I’m sure it’ll keep getting worse Scott
It's the same no matter where you go.
Driving idiots out there now days, I sometimes go 3 miles out of the way here so I don't have to make a left hand turn 😒 or deal with the stupidity when you have to hold a stop/ slow paddle as part of my job 🙄🤬🤬
Special society we live in 🤦♂️
People are in such a hurry to go nowhere. Around here some of the farmers are required to move equipment in the middle of the night
And that actually could make it even scarier at night because these people still aren’t going to slow down
Hi Andy, thanks for another great video.
I have a dumb question to ask. What exactly is "volunteer" corn or wheat, etc? I never heard that phrase before.
It’s generally corn that may have come out of the combine, or an ear of corn that was knocked on the ground that the following year starts to regrow in your bean field that you planted in this case, it was because of my F up of not cleaning out the bottom of the seed tender before I switched to beans that’s why the field across from my shop it’s in nice straight rows because I wound up planting it with the bean drill. Basically you don’t want it there.
@@TheGrumpyFarmer Thanks!
It was a passing zone!
Not where the people that passed me on the right it wasn’t not where the tractor trailer that almost took my front end out it wasn’t yes where the first tractor-trailer passed me it was
What do you do in the heavy snow winter months, work on your equipment?
Plow snow
That's the real pandemic!
Yeah exactly
Back in the 50's with our 5 ft. Allis pull type combine there weren't any software updates to fool with LOL, but road traffic?..........there was no speed limit and a lot people would drive at 90 mph (and a hell of lot of them died as a result).
Yes and yes
Well here in southwestern Pennsylvania grumpy there is a saying knee high by the 4th of July you're doing fine and if yours is already waist-high and chest-high by the 4th of July that's great I think I like the flag wasn't me though😊😊
Yeah i’ve never been a fan of that knee-high by the Fourth of July saying I prefer at least waist high
@@TheGrumpyFarmeri wonder where in the US that saying came from cause I would think your growing season would be shorter than like the bottom third of the US.
Could you explain what volunteer corn is for that don't understand. would not be addition income?
It’s corn that’s growing in a bean field that you don’t want there. You can’t harvest it separately.
I only have a 6 acre homestead.
Ill do it to make you a thousand bucks though.
Any woman who can put up with my shit is a blessing 😅
🤦♂️🤣🤣
Yikes! Don't tell Sandra about me, that's the last thing i need! Stupid indeed!
🤦♂️🤣🤣
Yea I have people blowing by me when I’m driving down the road. Pulling my 85 foot airseeder. They can’t wait till I turn they have to almost cause an accident Happens all tbe time.
Yup Evan it’s insane 🤦♂️
Your comment about "people" covers such a wide spectrum...non sensual does that. Have a great one Grumpy and Grumpette😂.
🤦♂️🤷♂️
Great shirt. Harmless Farmer. Miss his videos
Yup good guy
How many acres do you farm sir? Over 100 degrees here today, I can’t wait. I retired 6 years ago and just went back to work in May. I got so bored and lazy, I needed some structure. I just wish I was younger. Have a good day unless you made other plans.
Bored? Holy smokes I have a lot of hobbies and hate being around people. I love not working! I bike a lot on my local bike trail and smoke pipes/cigars and sit in the backyard getting a tan. I would hate going to work now.
@@germanwarrior6463 I’ve got atv’s, a Harley, an enclosed swimming pool with hot tub and sauna, I’ve got a 40x120 shop with a couple of antique cars, tools, hunting and fishing gear, refrigerator full of beer and other stuff. I’m just mentioning this because I retired at the age of 51 and after 6 years, there was just something missing. I don’t know how long I will last in the workforce but I know I don’t have to do it, I like doing it right now. Have a great weekend sir.
I don’t wish I was younger. I feel sorry for the younger people coming up in this world. We live in today.
@@_DB.COOPER Wow, you got more toys and things to do than me..Lol I quit working for the man in 2020 at 47yrs old. I couldn't do it no more and now work for myself and rather have freedom over money any day. Yeah, I make a lot less, but not have to worry about other retards and driving in the snow is great. Sometimes I do nothing but sit in the sun and relax all day with no care in the world. I think people today need to just slow down and relax a bit. We are programmed to be obedient drones that only worry about working and money, not healthy. Different strokes for different folks I guess. I would absolute HATE working normal again! I feel my life is well over half over, so why not spend the rest on easy mode. I worked since I was 12 so, worked enough like a slave long enough. Life is short to work all the time. Take care.
@@germanwarrior6463 I hear ya.
GET TF OUT OF THE ROAD!!!!😅😅😅😅
🤦♂️🙄🤷♂️
