I know I'am going to lose this discussion,but from the real life and not on paper.A Case 301,377,451 or AC 301 will smoke so you can see it a mile away burning 3-4 GPH and a new JD 414,404,466,496(as a example)pull the same load,same speed will use 6-10 GPH.Diesel fuel per gal. cost the same for each one,so where is the fuel going.The Old ones aren't turned up either and weight as much or more than the new ones do.On a closed Center Hyd.tractor doing stationary PTO work You are not Pumping any amount of oil,the New Smoke Free tractors will use 2 to 3 times the fuel.(Grain augers,Generators and such.I have the New All Electronic Tractors but for the 12 to 24 or better Constant,around the clock non stop running I have to use the older 50s-60s diesels for the economics.Real life beats paper.
