The tractor thread
We have about 4 JD sitting around most of them from the 70s. My primary tractor is a 4240 i dont know the year. It only has 10,000+ hrs on it. We work the living crap out of tractor during the summer. We hook are JD baler up to it. I can't remember the size. We kick out over 4,500 bales a year out of that baler alone. I have to pickup the slack due to are Case baler cause its broken down longer than it is running.
Is this about riding lawn mowers or tractors? The two are not the same by along shot. If the case of tractors, been through alot of tractors over the years.

The only one that stayed constant is the SH Farmall. IMO the IH tractors went down hill fast after about 1955. Though they did manage to recover in the early 60s but it was too late. John Deeres have always been hard on fuel. A problem they did not over come until the 1980s, Allis was for the most part reliable, but they were always behind the times. They did not come out with L-PTO until the early 70s.
