  1. He should pick a flannel shirt out of his closet before each video and put it on as he is walking out of the house. He has the Mr. Roger's Neighborhood vibe which isn't a bad thing for those who grew up with it. These type of auctions are becoming less and less in person and more OLO or online only. You wont see it happen for awhile but as the internet becomes faster and faster the easier it is to stream, video catalog, and dump massive amounts of pictures so you never have to leave your house. Most even offer delivery options, who wants to go pick it up, thats too much work.

  2. Must admit i laughed when you introduced the Massey 65 and ended the same sentence with 'blow by'.Engine wear is literally the only thing i know about them😅.They're probably fine but it's a funny coincidence

  3. Sean has been on a mission for the last few weeks and is going through the rest now with his family to get his first vaccine and then to see his doctor for his final dose and he has a very bad case and I don’t think it’s

  4. I know what you're talking about I did not want a new John Deere tractor with a loader it's a 30-32E I bought a brand new in 2015 My wife made me buy it because she wanted it and she's an engineer and you can't argue with an engineer so I have a John Deere I want an international A. I gave $26,000 for the whole thing 6 ft finish mower loader and blade still thinking about restoring a tractor but we might be moving from Alabama back up to Indiana where I'm from so maybe I can do something there I will keep watching your videos

  5. I watched this video before, but I have to tell you, Pete, that I enjoyed it even more the second time!! You are so lucky to have your dad wish you still at this point in your life., Not to mention having your son enjoy the auctions with the two of you. I used to attend the farm auctions with my father and he didn’t matter if he was just a little Livestock auction or if it was a big farm oxen like this one, the time we spent together was priceless. Lotta people can’t get past the dirt on everything but I watched your videos enough to know that you’re going to take that front loader home and make it look really nice and work efficiently as well. I look forward to seeing that process.

    I want to thank you for taking the time to video, and I know you’re disappointed about not capturing them bidding for your front loader, but nonetheless, I enjoyed you walking around and talking about the value of different things, and what they sold for, as well as what parts were missing. The thing you don’t show that I love at an auction is the food… I always found auctions to have some of the best pies and sloppy Joe’s. Maybe next time we can get a shot of some of that good old-fashioned auction food plus the ladies are always so nice that the food booth. But maybe you guys don’t eat during the day at the auction. Me, I have my pie picked out within the hour and paid for even though I’m not gonna eat it for four or five hours.

    Working for an auctioneer was truly one of my favorite jobs❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️ the gentleman that owned the business was a kind, Christian man, and he and his wife became dear friends for life. Sadly, though, when my mother got cancer, I had to move to Iowa, and their business was in Kansas. He gave everyone there. Excuse they were wanting to quit the business, and I always felt bad about that. Because I know the gentleman that owned it really loved auctioning. But life goes on dislike some of this equipment here people buy it, and they create a new life for it, repairing it and repainting it like New!!!😊👍🏼

    Thanks again Pete and Family for taking me along on your day trip to the auction. I’ll go anytime you go. By the way, does Hillary like auctions?

  6. Henry needs a tractor that he owns come on DAD give him one of your collection he might own the farm in 15 years, wouldnt that make you proud or what!
