Actually the John Deere R came out in 1949 WITH live PTO. And to oliverkid was Oliver also the first to have full pressure engine oiling system with full flow oil filtering. No they weren't, they were decades behind Deere in that. When did Oliver surpass Deere in great braking, of course Deere never didn't catch up with Oliver in cracked blocks and heads. And then on to resale value of the line. John Deere spent more money on R&d more years than did the combined R&d of all the rest of the US tractor manufacturers. You really like rewriting history. what survives or Oliver today since they were hands down the best in your opinion. I will admit today that John Deere is trying hard to self destruct with their mega store mandate which has given way to very lousy service and not stocking parts for popular models. We used to be nearly all Deere but have taken a great dislike to this new breed of business "experts" running deere, they have a good product but the last five tractors here have been fendts. The local fendt dealer is a one location dealer with superior service to deere that Deere will likely never have again. A lot of college mentality is working overtime at destroying what was once strong caring businesses.
