Man, this thing is picking corn at warp speed! I just saw a 2009 vid where they were still picking commercial corn BY HAND!!!! My grandpa picked 300 bushels a day by hand in 1923 for 3 bucks a day.
this looks really easy compared to what i call field corn harvest... other than the storage part.. cause you don have to worry about any thing over flowing and it looks like your bookin right along!
@kittensniffles sort of. Usually you can buy the cab part (seat, climate control, etc) from John Deere. The engines are all mainstream engines. John Deere, Cat, or sometimes and very rarely (the 2430 only) are cummins
@EMOPABLO666 We would love to explain this to you but you wouldnt understand! Go back to living in your little urban world where corn comes from a can!!!
i work on 8420s for a living they are pretty cool machines. what type of cleaning units are you using? at least u guys got to use jd bucket tracktors, we had to use red ones this pack.
I picked 8 acres of sweet corn by hand one summer but the funny thing was the circling buzzards overhead just waiting for me to keel over from heatstroke
Cool videos. We need more of these. There aren't many videos on youtube on sweetcorn harvesting action. Do you have any with the entire field operations in it? I ran pea and sweetcorn harvesting equipment for 18 years or so before the plants in our area started scaling back. Seeing the 8430 gave me flashbacks of the 8400s we ran, one of which had an 8 row head. I wish we had the folding option back then. It would have eliminated the header trailer for many of our road moves.
Never seen that before. I can cross that of my bucket list. Thanks for sharing.

Most of Oxbo's cabs are bought directly from John Deere (with the exception of the big jack and 2430)

Exactly right.

I used to assemble Oxbo's at clear lake and oversaw the assembly of the 2430 prototype as well as the new 2480. Oxbo is the best!!!
