Closing footage from the rear with the chopper moving away from the camera was awesome.
The 55 series is easily my favorite soundguard cab series from Deere. We run a 4555, we've had it since '90, Grandpa bought it 3 months old.
JD Soundgarb cabs are the most aesthetically pleasing design I've ever seen. Today's JDs just look rough brutes in comparison.
@@marks_sparks1 Exactly! I wish Deere would make a throwback series of tractors, and base it on the 30-60 series of soundguard cab tractors.
I wish just for a year Deere would make there tractors like they used to preferably the 20 to 55 series
That is very interesting to see duals on a tractor pulling a forage harvester. I never ever saw that before, and every farm around here ran that same John Deere pull behind forage harvester when I was little. Love that sound.
Reminds me of the Ertl forage toy set I had when I was a kid!
Had a 4255 FWA. I still wish I had that set. They jave them on eBay for about $50. Might buy the set again some day.

That brings back some of my fondest memories. Our 4440 with a 3800 and 216 wagons and then the 3950 with 716As. That 716A doesn't have a standard 1275 or 770 running gear under it. It looks strange without the rear tandem. When we bought our last 3950 chopper my dad made them paint the head and gooseneck yellow just to keep the classic look. Man the smell of silage and diesel and the bomber engine sound of the harvester. The best time of year. The only good thing about the 2 row heads and smaller wagons was it made filling silo last longer.
That 716A Chuck wagon was ahead of its time
Cool 4455. I like that setup. Always a good sound hearing the chopper running. 50 series tractors the best Deere ever built.
😁👍👍. Thank you for watching.
I love the old John Deere classics
The good old days
My grandfather ran two John Deer 4440 tractors for as long as I could remember. One of them is still in used by my uncle for running the cultivator and other tilling. Those are one of the best tractor series ever made by deer.
Thanks for another great silage video BTP. I enjoy seeing how farmers chop their own crop
Yes I have a 4455 that I use occasionally. Real handy rig.....
Well made 25 to 30 year old equipment,, gets the job done very well without spending a million bucks!
That was nice to watch, great old JD work horse, good as new
Nothing sounds finer than a harvester in god corn!!!!
This farmer is not in a hurry two rows at a time..." I like it 😉👍👍✌✌
That's some nice looking 🌽.
👍👍

Love your videos mate, when I watch them it always makes me want to play farming simulator 19, I would love to drive some of the tractors in your videos in real life, there are definitely some beautiful farms in the USA 🇺🇸, greetings from Australia 🇦🇺 God bless, all the best👍
At one point we had a 4440, 4450, and 4455.
All were 2 wheel drive.
The 4440 and 4455 were QR and the 4450 was PS.
We pulled mainly 4 row ripper/planters, a 4 row peanut digger and 2 row Lilliston Hi-Cap peanut combines.
Our tillage equipment at that time was 21 foot discs, a 4-18 flip plow, and a 21 foot field cultivator
Dang now that is cool
That's a nice chopping setup👍😉 I like green equipment😁👍
We bought 4 brand new. 2 delivered the same day, with loader and duels. 3 MFWD, and a 2wd. What a great day that was..
How many acres did you have? What did they replace?
@@greggergen9104 2000ish leased and owned, grass peas and field corn mainly. 1991 I think they came in, we had a couple 40series before that and lots of smaller tractor. My family ran the biggest dairy/crop farm in the county 30miles from the pacific ocean, GHC, WA PNW
Those are so cool, I learned to drive in one of those but with the open station (closed cabs weren't popular in Mexico when those come out), sadly we sold it 2 years ago
Super good job
Another great video from you!!
Thank you for watching.
I had a 4960 with a Tarrup 3 row on it blowing into a 30cu m accumulator trailer. Trailer had the beaters at the back, with a high rise swing in/out high speed conveyor on it. Was good setup. Never had to stop to unload. Keep blowing in while unloading into another big trailer. Our ground was way to soft to run trucks.
i live 12 miles south of the john deere ottumwa works where that chopper was built, my john deere round baler was also built there to.
Reminds me of the 4230 used on the Estate in South west England for grass harvesting where my Dad worked. It had replace a 4020 which was one of the first John Deere's to come into the UK since lease-lend during WW2. The 4230 had a/c but it was of no benefit as the rear window had to be open to operate the manual controls on the International precision chop harvester - it also had an 8 track cassette player also of no use as nobody had any 8 track cassettes!
J'adore vos vidéos 😄👍👍👍
We farm in central KY and our main tractors are the 4430’s. We chop corn and haylige with a 3950 forage harvester and actually just finished up yesterday. We do beef cattle and row crops here.
I chopped many the acre with a 4440 and that exact same JD chopper pulling a dump wagon.
The good ole 4440’s! Wonderful tractors
Great Vlog, it's not hard to see how the self propelled forage harvesters have taken over Thanks
Farmers still dont get done any quicker bc they just have to chop more acreage 2 pay for it
Always a sign fall is about to truly kick in
Looks like 10 foot corn!
And cool vid and I'm not even a minute in yet😁😁
You should show how the corn is going up into the silo silo it blows up inside of it there's a big spinning wheel that pushes it up amazing stuff
Already has in another video.
We never had cattle but thats how I remember the neighbors chopping corn,,, none of this 900hp 30' self propelled monsters like we see now!!!
Yeah we'll be putting up our corn silage in the next couple of days, its 2 weeks ahead of schedule thanks to a frost this past week, it's for beef cows so doesn't need to be too picky.
I believe that he's moving a little faster than the red tractor I watched the other day chopping corn just saying nice video.
Thank you for watching.
Nice video 💚💛
Thank you for watching.
Surprised ya have duals on when pulling a chopper and wagon....ya ever post a video of a pull type opening a corn feild
I ran a 4455 MFWD for many hours. It had a power shift transmission, was a great tractor overall and never gave any problems. Deere would do well to try to build tractors like that again and get away from all this electronic crap that's a one-way ticket to bankruptcy court when the bottom falls out of the markets and you can't pay for it.
The scene at 1:00 mark reminds me of where I live, but I'm in Pennsylvania.
😁👍👍
👏👏👏👍👍👍🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜
We chop with a 4450 and 3960 3rn and dump wagon and also a 5820 4rn into the trucks
Very cool chopping team. The 5820 is one of the harder to find self propelleds Deere built over the past 50 years. I am looking to film a 5820. If you could email me at toytractortimes@gmail.com
Definitely the best channel on CZcams, always packed with amazing content and always high quality!.
Hey Jason can you please turn the Closed Caption back on please hasn't been on for the last several video's
2 rows at a time... That's gonna take a while.
After seeing choppers with 6 or 8 or12 rows being chopped, 2 rows seems kind of mundane. ha! cool watching the crew chopping.
We have a 8245r on our 2 row 3960 chopper
Very cool.
We use a John Deere 4440 pulling a 3950 forage harvester
Very cool. Thank you for sharing.
could we have something on the farmall h its the one that starts on petrol and then goes to diesel i still dont understand how it does it also can we see you international you haven't had it out for a drive round for a while all the best pete
Hello!
Hi.
Cost effective for the small farm operator and a beautiful tractor for sure, but painfully slow compared to the modern equipment.
In its day it was a pier house chopping team. Deere’s biggest self propelled was 4 rows and 250 hp when the 4455 was new. Today the biggest Deere chopper is 900 hp and chops 12 rows.
Where in southeast Wisconsin was this? I was just up there this past weekend visiting my folks. Saw that Ford combine heading back home just north of etown
Andy I am not sure my friend John filmed this one. He lives in Wisconsin. That Etown Farm has five Fords 😁
bigtractorpower yeah the one is all prettied up I would love to see it in action;)
I got to film one a little in 2018. I hope to go back this fall
Hey mr Jason I'm 13 and I have a farm toy collection I ordered a jd 7800 I think it's gonna be here best Tuesday
Where'd you order that 7800 from? I'd love to have one on a feed mixer or a chopper for my display.
Very cool. The 7800 replaced the 4455 in the fall of 1992. The 7800 is a great John Deere. Thank you for watching.
@@bigtractorpower no problem your videos are great and thank you for telling me that that's cool 👍 I already have a toy 7810 John deere
@@monte0907 I ordered it on eBay for 11 dollers and that's cool
@@willmullis6817 Okay, I'll have to keep my eye out for one.
This must be a small dairy operation.
It must take forever only doing 2 rows at a time!
Not really. If you only need one silo of corn, that's not big acres. Most modern dairy does not feed very much corn silage on a percentage basis. MUCH more hay silage and so on.
That wagon holds between 8 and 12 tons depending on moisture. And he can fill it every 5 minutes, or less. So approaching or exceeding 100 tons, per hour.
it just looks 'small. That is NOT a small set up. Not for an actual family farm, especially mixed crop/dairy. If I had to guess, the replacement cost would be... $250 000? Including the 2 wagons. But a the only part of it that cannot be used for a different crop is the actual head.
Making these decisions very much different for every operation based on cost/benefit.
Those big monsters we see here some time? 1000 tons per hour. or more.
They are cool to watch though.
I'm guessing that those are original tires on the 44
My dad has a 4440
We had a Chuck Wagon does anybody remember those ?
Oh yes the 110 and 112. There is a Chuck Wagon on the way to channel 😁
👋🏻
Dry flat land n need duals... Nver understood that... Same with farmers running duals to make hay?? What the
What a poor capacity!
