“If he sells it, I’m going to have to buy it.” Well, dad, looks like a great chance to make a ton of money but keep the tractor in the family. LOL

I nominate Zack for an Emmy nomination for 2020! What talent, to be able to portray such emotions that we also cry!

Hey Zach, when you and John Deere teamed up and gave Farm Rescue 5k each, it inspired my wife and I to give $500.00 to them. There are going to be a lot of farms that will need Farm Rescue's help because of Covid-19, especially livestock farmers who are having to euthanize animals that can't be harvested. Keep up the good work and good luck this growing season! Andy B. North Carolina

"The Oscar" goes to... "the actor playing the Millennial Farmer." 🚜👍👍 The best supporting actor goes to the John Deere 8RX. 🚜####

Love watching your channel. I am a former farmer who, out of necessity made a major life change in 1979. Left the farm in Minnesota, got married, and moved to the Seattle area. Worked construction until the economy out there died. Went back to school and got a degree in electronics, and moved back home to Minnesota and went to work for a hospital in South Dakota. We bought an acreage on the home farm where we still live today. I kind of live vicariously through your channel. Love your machinery trials and hope you will be able to continue to do them. Best wishes to you and your beautiful family.

My son (6 years old) loves to read John Deere dealership books as bedtime stories. Tonight he told me he wants to read a Zack Johnson book. I told him I would ask you to write a book. 🥰 let me know when you get that done, he will be impatiently waiting! You are his farming idol! You should do some shoutouts to kids on your videos. His name is Bryson Medd from Brucefield Ontario.

Love that you put the 8RX next to the MM. It's insane how far farm technology has come in a relatively short amount of time.

Awesome video Zach! Thanks to you and John Deere for allowing me to follow along. I’m not a farmer but love watching your channel and seeing all the goings on of the farm.

This one of the best of your videos that I have seen! Funny, informative, emotional just outstandingly done! Thanks!

I've loved seeing the new 8rx and all of your sarcasm!

going by the music under that montage.. if it were a 90's romantic comedy, we all know that you will be together with her someday soon :D in some epic rainstorm you will meet again :P

I'm gonna miss that beautiful piece of high tech agriculture engineering in your videos. A extremely appreciative shout out to the John Deere folks for letting you use it for this planting season.

Zach wanted to wish you my deepest condolences on your loss. I was crying right with you as I watched her drive down the lane into the sunset for the last time .

I really do like that pto feature on the Minneapolis-Moline might run into a couple of accidents but you don’t have to completely turn it off! So revolutionary!

That was / is a great tractor (Thank you John Deere!) and this year's planting videos were really good. But the most important thing to remember is...Never, ever take for granted the time you get with the people you find riding on the buddy seat.

Thank you Zac for doing these videos and showing us how you work love them a lot has changed since I was working on farms in the 90’s keep it up

Not to many people get a deal like you did. Thanks for sharing the Great Ride you got to experience this Spring with the tractor, & planter. That was definitely something to be Thankful For.

The 8rx will be missed. Its just such a beautiful tractor

The 8RX is an amazing piece of technology and kudos to JD for creating such an amazing machine.

Loved the montage at the end, the “I’m not crying your crying” comment have me laughing out loud. Thanks🤙

Hahaha, great showmanship Zach! It’s fantastic to have seen the development over the years when it comes to machinery, I was born in-67 and remember that my father even had horses for the work when I was a toddler. Of course they had some really Jurassic tractors as well and from there on the horses went out and similar tractors like the Minneapolis Moline came into use like the Massey-Ferguson 1000 series in the beginning of the 70’s era, then it became newer models and John-Deere’s and before my father became a pensioner it was Fendt only, most likely because one of the uncles were a AGCO Dealer. Hopefully you’ll get a nice summer to watch everything grow, and luckily you don’t have any hay to deal with when it is super hot over the summer, it’s been a curse to sweat, get long arms, strong fingers, and a sunburn that looks like a white T-shirt even though not wearing any shirt over the year’s.... but that’s part of history now and great memories.
