In Reply to: IH and JD tractors. posted by JD Seller on January 24, 2015 at 17:27:11:
Dad's father had health issues that made him prefer a tractor that had a foot clutch and and a seat that allowed his feet to position something close to what he would do if sitting in the house. This eliminated the Deere 2 cylinders, MM, AC, and Case. Subsequently he bought or priced IH and Oliver. He felt the 9N was too small for his PTO power needs. Mom's father had a Farmall H, JD 70, and a 3010 diesel but he died when I was real young so I don't know how those came to be. There were a number of Deere 2 cylinders within 5 miles back in the day so the local Deere dealer had a good rapport with quite a number of farmers.
Deere gradually became the preferred brand here due to good support by the dealer and the corporation. I like IH products as evidenced by my handle and this had and still has a number of IH pieces here. I never felt I was caught in the middle of a big feud by liking products of both. Of course there were times that the area dealer of either would make us mad and shop the other brand but time healed our wounds. The tractors I would most like to collect are either JD or IH. Including but not limited to: 4020 SC diesel 3010 diesel (grandpa's if it could be found) JD 70 JD 630 JD A JD 4850 IH H IH Super M IH 300 or 400 IH 806 diesel IH 1066 Of course there are a number of Oliver's and MM's I would not mind having among other makes. Since I saw the pick here I would like having a 5200 Ford diesel with mounted corn picker.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
