Old Popper. I respect your opinion and liking your John Deere. I ended up working at a Deere dealer for the last four years before I retired. Spent 37 years on IH before that. So, I went from working on the latest and greatest as they say, to working on older model Deere tractors. Worked on a few 720 and 30's, gas and Diesel plus some A's and B's. Even figured out it was the camshaft on the diesel that was worn out not opening the injection pump to full stroke. Others had already had their try on it . But, even though they treated me great at the Deere dealer and like sh&t last four years at IH, I never got to liking any of the green.
Now, don't get me wrong, I know they made and still make a lot of good machines but it just never got into my blood. The shop foreman at Deere happened to be the fellow who was just out of high school and worked under me for four years at IH Dealer. We got along great. We still do. He never liked Red and I never liked Green and we both knew it. BUT, when working on Red he did his best and when I worked on Green I did my best. You do what you are paid to do and keep personal opinions to your self.
Now, as far as that H and A, WELL, I would not trade either of my H Farmalls for three of those A Deere's even though I realize you could easily get more for a good A over a good H around here.
