UK built 4 and 5000's were made to imperial measurements, 4wd (front wheel assist) was not available factory fitted on UK built units until the 10 series. If you wanted 4wd on a 4000, you had to get a County 4000-Four, or if you wanted a 5000, it would be either a Roadless Ploughmaster 75 (small front wheels) or a County 754 (equal wheels)

I would buy a ford for its looks alone

My Dad and I ran a 1968 one ninety that we pulled a 21ft Krause offset disk with. It made quick work of that 400 aces of wheat stubble. Most comfortable tractor we ever ran.

I work a 1966 4400 and 1980 4600 su with a factory cab and also 1985 5610 with a factory cab.😄😄👍👍👍👍👍

4000 best all round and 5600

I work at a citrus company who had about 20 old fordson major tractors they switched to Ford 4000 tractors and some new offset twin blade bush hog cutters the new Fords couldn't stand up to the load they blew head gaskets like it was a popular sport they then got some Massey Ferguson 165 tractors and some 185 tractors and never looked back later on a few farmers got some Ford 5000 tractors now those really made Ford look like champions

We have a 4100, 5000& 7000. Very handy tractors, with good fuel economy.

I had an chance to buy a ford 5000, wish i had bought it. It was an early 5000 and solid honest tractor but for me it would been little small for most jobs i have but still

I have now seen you cover half of my dad’s fleet. Nicely done. We used our 190 xt as an auxiliary to our Ford 8000. Live to see a video on the Ford 901 Powermaster, which was a personal favorite of mine.

My father drove the first 5000 in that area of Dorset, UK, it had as the first ones did, round wings/ mud guards, and a canvas lambourne cab, all other tractors on the farm had been and were Massy Ferguson 35s and 65s often pulling two or three furrow/ bottom ploughs, they bought a new three furrow reversible plough made by lemkin, made before hydraulic turn overs it was operated by pulling a lever and hoping for the best, they also bought a kidd flail single chop forage harvester to go with it, quite an investment

The 8000 we had was a true work horse for us. Spent many hours as a young kid next to my dad on that tractor. If I remember correctly we ran an 8 bottom plow with ours.

I don’t understand why people hate the tractors, I really love the 86 series and the 60 series a lot.

I had a 1975 5200 i put a MW turbo on it i pulled a 7 shank Taylor way chisel plow and a ford 3 18 plow knee deep it was a good tractor.

I have a 4200 nf and a 5200 all-purpose front end. I love my fords.

I have two 5000 fords. A 1970 model purchased used in 1976 and a 1972 model purchased used in 1996. These are the the most reliable trouble free tractors on my farm.

Once Ford got past the 6000 disaster they were again making a good lineup of general purpose farm tractors. Unfortunately, no sooner did they get back on good standing they quit the farm tractor business altogether.

Really dude!? Instead of watching you do your best ventriloquist work... You could have shown us the tractors!!!!!!

Allis Chalmers 👍👍👍

My stepdad was all Deere but his beloved 190 XT My neighbor growing up was all Alis and my last tractor was a 9655 AGCO Alice

I did enjoy this video. We have a 2520, and a 3020 still in use. A neighbor within 5 miles of us has 2 4020's still in use as well as a 3010 and the mighty 4430. Cool video, thanks!

My 2520 still works on this farm. I feature it in several of my videos on my UA-cam channel Tube channel. The 2520 came into existence in the muscle tractor era. It was too small to be a big tractor and too big to be a small tractor. It just never filled a niche for the market at that place in time.

I have a 1970 2520 diesel!

Hello From Central Kentucky. When I was a kid growing up in the 1970s, A very well known horse farm had 2,1020 John Deere tractors with side mounted sickle bar mowers as well as a 2520 John Deere tractor that was used with a Woods C-80 mower for mowing. All 3 of these John Deere tractors were ordered with the “Orchard Exhaust” which looked very similar to the exhaust system that was on an 8N Ford tractor. The 2520 was also used for plowing the ground for the tobacco crop with either a 2 or 3 bottom John Deere plow as well as a John Deere dual gang disc with the hydraulic lift and or depth control using the hydraulic control along with the 2 tires on the disc. Because of the ground clearance of the 2520 John Deere, It was very suitable for the multi row tobacco setter although the orchard exhaust was not friendly to the people riding on the tobacco setter because of the exhaust fumes. This 2520 John Deere had the narrow front wheel configuration with the RollAMatic feature from what I remember Those John Deere tractors of that period of time were very nice to operate if you could afford the associated costs of keeping them maintained.

My brother owned Allis Chalmers from the earlier years. Nice tractors. The 190 was featured at the Orange Spectacular back in July. Subscribed because I'm a sucker for old tractors.

The 20 series is still the pinnicle of JD tractors, at least as far as the non 2-cylinders go. The 30 series was that for the 2 bangers. IMHO.

Good video. Thank you.

Thank you...very well done. I have a 40 and what you say is true....they can still do the Job 70 years later!!!

First gen without cab lights TW15 not it didn't have cab lights to see easy at night but when pulling 18t chaser bin as it get half full you have down shift which if comjine operator isnt paying attention you get grain overboard. Series 3 was better model all round.

I appreciate what you're doing with your channel but I don't think you've done your homework when you claim that the 190xt was the top of its class in pulling power. If we go by Nebraska tests the 806D out pulled and grossly out lugged the 190xtD even though more ballast was added to the XT. The 856 as well as the 1850 Oliver beat it by a wider margin. The 806 also beat it with no ballast added. I'd say it's on the lower end of its class in performance. Even the Allis guys I've talked to don't believe they made a truly great muscle tractor until the 220

I Love it

Erica Wells here, this is mine and my husbands tractor! I’m so happy I came across this video, these are awesome pictures!! Would you mind me sharing some of them? I’m so happy it brought you joy. My husband needed a bigger tractor for our farm, and came across this beauty. For a month or two he was so undecided, finally I told him he needed to make the drive to Ohio and bring this beauty home. From our understanding (and we could be wrong) the original owner who did this paint job used the tractor for parades before he sadly passed away. It changed hands a couple times, and was going to be used as a pulling tractor at some point but plans changed. Now that we own it, it’s used for baling hay, to be in a parade/tractor show here and there, and to be shown off at the Alexander steam show for others to enjoy!

I'm not sure how many 826 gas hydros were actually made but pretty sure less than 100! That is one rare tractor. A good friend of mine has a beautifully restored one here in Iowa.

If you are going to narrate, make sure you have your mic where it picks up your voice.

Hurry up!!!!!!!!

My father was at a sale and it was a really nice 190, he thought he could always use a little more horsepower on the farm in the tractors didn't seem to be selling really high so he stepped in and started the bid on it, then someone stepped out of the way and he noticed the carburetor hanging on the side of it, he quit bidding and hope somebody else would step in, and they did LOL, but I always like the 190s and 190 XT just make sure they're a diesel😅😅

My Dad had a 64 One Ninety & pulled a 5-14" A C plow or a 15' Keewany diskharrow! He had a ruptured disk in his back, but was able to do field work when other work became impossible because of his back! The BIG fuel tank gave him more than he needed for a days work! ONLY once do I remember, on a very COLD winter day, that he couldn't get it started❗

Just picked up a 190 XT hopefully it ends up being a good tractor but it definitely needs a little bit of TLC

I saw this in Steiner literature a while back and thought it was photoshopped. Holy crap it isn't! Looks really cool and even better working. I'm glad someone is brave or crazy enough to work it. I would never want to own such a thing. Every maintenance job would become a terrible burden! The Steiner photo was submitted by a certain Erica Wells of East Bethany.

Great video its nice seeing what my 1977 2-105 would have looked like new

I’ve got a David brown 990. My aunt bought it somewhere along the line of 1978 to the 80s. Work clothes are pretty dirty but still runs like a top. On the shifters, there’s a rubber boot at the bottom to guard the transmission from water and such, and one time those boots had rotted completely off so my grandpa went to go start it up in the winter, and there was 5 gallons of ice in the transmission. That’s the only thing that we absolutely hate about the Davin brown. Another thing is that it likes to drink oil so every time you’re going down the road with it at high speed the oil splashes into the cylinder.

Bought farm back 80s Hadden been plow for 20yr hire custom guy who had a 1586 with a 8 bottom.he did 4 round and put range gear out it had bring in 2590 case fto finish job

These things were only legendary because of their cabs. My great grandpa bought a 1086 in the 80s and he hated it, he only used it for snow blowing. It was supposed to put the 806 into retirement (the one I’ve told you about before) but he hated it so much it just blew snow. And the 806 still pulled the combine.

I enjoy your videos and I'm wondering could you do a video on the 1969 John Deere 4520 please keep up the good videos

should do the 50 series john deere

Have one it's the best 👌

Between me and my brother we have three four eight thousands and one 5,000 & two 4000

This is the first of your videos the UA-cam algorithm has recommended to me. I will try a bit more before I turn you off in case this one is an anomaly. Your content is quite interesting. I would enjoy more and perhaps subscribe if the presentation were just a bit better and I think improvements could be easily implemented. I dug a little deeper and it seems you are fairly new to UA-cam. Please accept my criticisms in the spirit in which they are intended. I'm bothered by the way the first word(s) in each new frame are somehow much louder. It's very noticeable. Do you unconsciously move nearer your microphone or is it something else? There's no need for the background music when you're narrating. It's a distraction and totally unnecessary.

❤ the blue ones from that era!! Sharp n comfortable . Liked the foot throttle

The 1466 is way better then then the 68’s as the truck engines were only built for speed the 66’ engines were built for power and torque. The reason why they weren’t as popular is because farmers hated them, they couldn’t pull a big plow because of the lower torque and they guzzled diesel like crazy while doing nothing but idling. Most farmers either replaced the engines or they literally, took a brand new tractor, and threw it in the fence row.

We’re still running a 72’ Ford 8000 on our farm. Still a hoss of a tractor pulling a 5 bottom plow when we need to.
