I guess I am one of those guy that color doesn't mater to, Color blind I guess. I grew up running AC WD's to 190XT's Oliver's from the 60 to 2050's MH 30 to MF 1155 Fords from 2N's to 8000's IH from the H to 1566's JD from the 10 series to the 30 series. MM U's to G1000 Case SC to 1070 and many more tractors than I could count. Now they all made good tractors and they all made bad ones, I'm just telling the truth about it. One time I had to have a JD 4020 diesel so I bought one and sold it after a year, My back got tired of me reaching forward under the steering wheel to do everything and not being able to turn in the seat to see what was going on behind me. My IH 766 seamed to be light in the front and the 190xt worried me about the transmission. The MF 165 was great to plow with but wasn't worth a darn to pull a disc. Some tractors are better for some jobs no to ways about it. Pulling a pull type picker an Oliver 77 to 880 IH H to 560 just because of how and ware you sit and get off and on.
I know there are guys that wont own anything but JD or IH or Ford and so on. Me it don't matter, I just want the best tractor for the money. If I were looking for a 5 plow tractor (100 horse) and had the choice between a JD 4020 and an Oliver 1850 in the same condition and hours and had the money to buy one. JD was $11000 and the Oliver was $5500 I will buy the Oliver because the Oliver will do the same amount of work or more for 1/2 the cost and keep the other 1/2 in reserve for what might come up unexpectedly. But that's just me and the way I think.
So are you a "Brand" kind of guy or are you "Rainbow" kind of guy? And are you the same way with equipment? Bandit

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
