What is the best seed tender solution to refill big air drills on the fields especially when they are in the boonies?

In Farming Simulator 19 (FS19) I'm using BSM tipper/6 (end dump) grain trailer which has massive (unrealistic?) 70k liter capacity. This same mod is available for FS22 as well but I would not want to use it anymore as its deemed unrealistic capacity.

In FS22 you have the ConveyAll CST 1550 seed tender specifically built semi-truck trailer for this purpose, its capacity is I believe 43.5k liters or so. You could also be a bit unrealistic by loading Demco Dual Auger 2200 grain cart with seeds, its got even more massive was it 77k liter capacity and works pretty well refilling big Bourgault 71300 air cart loading "spoon" things, however I have never seen any american real life farmer refilling their air drills using a grain cart, guess in real life the auger pipe is so high up in the sky that it would splash seeds all over the place unlike in farmsim magic it only starts to unload then its 100% correctly aligned.

There are truck, not semi-truck but just a single flatbed dump truck umm truck mods out which has some sort of grain hauling capacity on the dump box thing, one example for FS22 is Mack Grain Hauling Pack by Bcbuhler. From mod description: Capacity: 20350 Liters, Capacity: 35000 Liters. So the capacity is not really high, in fact I believe that dump truck model has the 20.3k liter capacity which doesn't even fill ONE Bourgault 71300 air cart. Hmm so guess the search continues for "The Best Seed Tender" solution.

youtube "Loading the cart!" by Mike Mitchell canadian farmer who runs Bourgault air drill with 71300 air cart, he refills it from Lode King Distinction Super-B grain trailer.

After seeing that video I used lode king distinction super-b grain trailer to seed refill my Bourgault 71300 air carts. It works pretty well when you just DRIVE OVER THE LOADING SPOON with the semi-truck and trailer, slowly but yeah just plow over the spoon (unrealistically).

Some time when your air cart is in terrain slope "just right" it lifts up the loading spoon just enough that it collides with your semi-truck wheels, if that happens then simply move Bourgault air drill a bit and try to see if the loading spoon fits closer to the terrain surface. However this happens very rarely, I've had it happen to me like twice or so, its not an issue really, just be aware of it.

How do you transport and transfer seeds from grain bin to a planter/seeder on the field? Well use auger like Meridian TL 12-39 to get seeds out of the grain bin, dump into semi-truck trailer or seed tender of your choice, then drive to the field where planter/seeder is and unload there.

If you are doing large scale american farming, you can use semi-truck pulled Lode King Distinction Super-B grain trailer to haul fertilizer and seed to your big air carts, carefully drive the semi-truck and grain trailer over the air cart loading scoop/spoon auger, its a bit tricky but works.

If you have a proper seed tender or a dump truck like Welker Farms is using, then just back up to the air cart auger and dump, easy.

Or a bit game-y cheat-y way is to simply use default auger wagons, they work in FS22 but this method would be very risky or outright impossible in real life because the auger wagons auger would shoot a wide mess off product out, that would be extremely difficult to get into whatever seed/fertilizer intake you aim for, I never seen any real life farmer doing it from regular grain auger wagon into planter/seeder.

I am still looking for realistic american farming seed tender solution, right now that Super-B grain trailer is the big boy way, unfortunately you cannot load Kinze 4905 planters with it as the intake is high above the ground not reachable from Super-B trailer without an auger.
