I love the way that the 2 cylinder John Deere diesels sound💚💛

[@Dennis-xt8lw]

They will never make something this unique ever again

[@willieponder7840]

The first and best tractor i ever owned

[@tractortalkwithgary1271]

What a classic!!!

[@jamesdiehl8690]

The first tractor I was around was a Johnny pop. A family friend had one on his farm and I can still remember the sound when he was headed out to the field.

[@alexevans650]

I like how he said 45 years old and I’m watching this video and it’s 60 years okd

[@DavidSmith-fr1uz]

This program was made around 2005. I wonder where that old tractor is now.

[@mkaa05]

[@crankysports]

I LOVE the way those twins sound! I think a "D" is my favorite

[@user-wc3sl4xs6l]

[@remco8170]

crankysports gp is also very nice

[@dontrushme2112]

Ive had 2 D's and an R. All have that distinct sound that we all love

[@mhoff5777]

When I was a kid I plowed with the 830 John Deere tractor. Your ears would be popping at the end of the day from the engine.

[@robertlong1693]

As a teen I worked on a dairy farm. He had a 50 and a 620. spent alot of time on the 620.

[@greggergen9104]

I remember going to bed after driving a John Deere 730 and falling asleep to listening to my ears ringing. I must have been 12 years old. Never had my ears ring in my life before that.

[@boballmendinger3799]

I'm generally a Farmall guy, but jeez louise, I'd LOVE to have an 830 and a 5 bottom plow!

[@BeingMe23]

Well old farmer don't be too nieve. There are still small farms using older JD etc brand tractors. They are cheap to buy, easy to fix too.

[@jonathanbenoit8828]

Love it ❤️❤️ super nice 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍, I'm a John Deere man too, but y'all are great, that little rascal and the little tractor, takes the cake, and that John Deere truck is awesome 👍👌

[@LarsDcCase]

These twin cylinder John Deeres were reliable and very fuel efficient.

[@duron700r]

JD had fuel economy nailed down! And I'm not a JD guy but have owned three. Good ttractors.

[@philipfreeman72]

I always wanted a John Deere .

[@bencramer5458]

I have a John Deere 720 it's pretty nice.

[@jorgepadilha7429]

Os John Deere 730, 820 e 830 são TOP!

[@LordByron444]

Need to update this... now in a few days will be 60 years old...

[@jonathanbenoit8828]

Love it ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ super nice 👍👍👍👍👌 love it ❤️ super, can't beat it John Deere#1

[@jimsteele7108]

I like that.

[@jdkonold3455]

I aim to be him when I grow up

[@RobertWilliams-ox4hz]

I've always liked the 830. I have no personal experience with these 2 cylinder JD's. What are the disadvantages of this design vs a more conventional engine layout?

[@CoalChrome]

Robert Williams other than being shaken around a lot, and the somewhat often maintenance of the pony, they are fine. At our fairgrounds, there’s a 80 modified with a starter

[@raonesix8423]

The oil dipstick tells it all on those old classics

[@rickiemckillip8124]

Keep those 2 cylinders Singing

[@ericlakota6512]

Wow 70hp i know it was their bigest tractor but darn thats some poneys

[@juanasanelli6831]

Esos grandes John Deere son eternos Yo en mas de 40 años de mecanico agricola NUNCA tuve que reparar uno Un tio mio tenia un 830 y el decia que tenia una fuerza burra

[@billbright1755]

That belt pully could power a threshing machine as well.

[@josemanuelmaria2467]

Muy bueno john Deere

[@andypressley578]

If it's not green it's not to be seen yall it is what it is yall keep it green the jd man 😁😊😉😀🙃

[@knothead3128]

I would get that fluid out of those tires!

[@keving8480]

What size of tires are those?

[@Eddie_Schantz]

In the late 60's I spent a couple of summers on an 820 for a relative of mine. What is the difference between the 820 and the 830
as far as the model numbers are concerned. Can't be much.

[@thegreenerthemeaner]

Depends on the year. The early 820s had a green dash and were little improved over the 80. The later ones had a black dash and more power, the same as the 830.

[@Eddie_Schantz]

@@thegreenerthemeaner Thanks for the info. I would have thought that a 6 bottom plow would be too much for an 830. I guess it would depend on the type
of soil you are in. We pulled a 5 bottom with the 820 and it did a good job with that.

[@scottmillner]

I wonder where that Ford Truck is now. They must have spent 25k putting that thing together for her. It's only money till you spend it.

[@jessesyfie7244]

6 16s or 14 inch bottoms. In SD u would never pull 6 bottoms in my ground.

[@RJ1999x]

Smart dog! Lol

[@TheMrPeteChannel]

Ford should make a John Deere edition F150.

[@mikeskidmore6754]

Old Video more like 58 years old now ..

[@strawberryroan1941]

Mike Skidmore It is from about 2000

[@ericlakota6512]

I would die seing that truck i was thinking of doing it to a jeep of mine
