I find it interesting that many models of many brands have been call lemons, junk, duds, and etc. An example of this is the JD 2010. It just is a very poorly designed tractor that has serious issues. Another to a lesser degree would be the Oliver 1855 with the Waukesha engine that grenaded on so many farmers. We all can think of different models/brand that fit this description.
Now what is amazing me is how many guys are buying these problem models and thinking that they have some thing. I am willing to bet that there is at least a post per week from some one about their "New tractor" a JD 2010 or (insert your bad/lemon tractor) LOL If you do any kind of research at all you will find hundreds or even thousands of people telling you how bad these tractors are but guys still buy them. It totally blows my mind. Just this last week some one posted about how they wanted to get "More Power" out of his JD 2010 for when he was tractor pulling with it. WOW!!! I had a chill run up my billfold just reading that. LOL
Another one would be the fellow that post about how great a deal he got on a JD 2840 that runs great but has "SOME" hydraulic issues. Groan/cry/laugh or shake your head. LOL
I just hate to see these people get into some thing that can bankrupt them. The repairs on a JD 2840 hydraulic system can be $10K. You can have some parts on a JD 2010 that are just not available new or used. New has not been made in 30 years and all the used ones are shot.
So what do you guys think??? What are some other models that are just trouble????
Are some of these troubles regional??? Around here the MF 1135s had rear end trouble but many on here talk about how they were reliable in their area.

Today's Featured Article - Restoration Story: Fordson Major - by Anthony West. George bought his Fordson Major from a an implement sale about 18 years ago for £200.00 (UK).
