I think some clarification is necessary here. If you will refer to my post of yesterday I said I did not dispute the fact that the Model 'D' had been sold under the same model designation for 30 years and that made it the longest running model. That is without question true. But, I wanted to explore the discussion on a slightly different avenue. I felt it was true that although the Farmall A "design" changed model designations over the years- that design was a longer running design than the Model 'D' and in fact had fewer design changes over its lifetime than the Model'D' did. I was tempted to use the word "design" but I felt it would get construed into something far from what was intended as happened anyways in a couple of posts. This was intended to open some friendly and interesting debate with pros and cons expressed but a couple of fellows got their green shorts pulled up a little to high and they couldn't properly verbalize, simply thinking I have too much time on my hands. Thank you to those of you who expressed your thoughts.
