    The one that impressed me the most was the 4840. OMG, someone still owns a cultivator and knows how to use it😳. So many chemically cultivate today, it was so nice to see an actual cultivator in use. I did notice that 5020 was a row crop version too. Nice videos.

Potato harvesters, wheat combines, cotton pickers, walnut harvesters, tile plows etc.

    Enjoyed it. We had a John Deere 6030 on our farm and I thought that had to be the limit of 2WD power. Then I saw the 500 hp. Honey Bee. It was built by the Honey Bros in Frontier Saskatchewan. They pulled an 80' Friggstad chisel plow with it. It was never for sale; only used on their own farm and recently is shown at fairs. It has a Cummins V12 and a 13 speed trans. Two very big wheels off an earth mover do all the pulling. Dualled of course. You might consider following up on that and doing a video. I think they built 2 of them and still use them on their farm.

    It's kind of an evolution thing. In the 60's there were no 4x4 tractors and now I don't think you can buy a new tractor without it. Same with cabs. A weather front was like a luxury option then but can you get a big tractor with no cab today? Same thing with pickups. We never had a 4x4 in the 60's but we got by. Now everyone has 4x4 pickups. Times are changing no they've changed!!

    The JD 5020 was just an upgraded 4020 on “Steroids”. The 4020 & 5020 were so rugged and well made. They could be neglected in Preventive Maintenance and if the Battery was able to start them up you could roll out and do your chores. Actually these were some of JD best mid to high power tractors. So well made. Just like there old Grandpa JD “D” as so many are still chugging along....

    I would have to say my favorite in this video would have to be the 5020. I spent a lot of time on one as a teenager. It had a cab with an AC unit that didn't work. Hated it in the middle of summer as it was like sitting in an oven with the heat that poured through the hydraulic levers in the dash. It was nice on the frosty morning after a couple rounds of working it. Did a lot of cultivating with a 3 point cultivator(24 foot I think it was), that was fun as it was a little heavy for the tractor and it would do wheelies when coming out of drainage ditches since you had to lift for them but it would land smooth on the big balloon tires it had on the front. Scared me the first time it happened.

I didn't know it at the time but i was told that the john deere 4000 low profile with the power shift transmission was a rare tractor. It came off of a pecan orchard and it had big low profile fenders and under slung exhaust. The exhaust was ran under the tractor out the back from the factory so it wouldn't get knocked off by the tree branches on the pecan orchard. It was factory ordered that way. I was told that it was actually rare and was worth a little money. Especially with the power shift option instead of the synchro transmission. I never even thought about it all those years grown up runnen that tractor on the farm. But after i read about it being rare i got to thinken about it realized that i've never seen another one.

    It still amazing to me that until the 80's, there were few FWD tractors, most farming was done with just 2wd.

      1983 was the bench mark year where FWA started to gain market share over 2wds.

      @@bigtractorpower thanks for correction on FWA / FWD, I was pretty sure they didn't make front wheel driven-only tractors!! Maybe the Kirovets K700 but when would you switch a Russian tractor like that to 2WD on purpose!

    Great video! I am wondering why the exhaust pipe on the 4760 is on the side and the 4955 are not. Most of the older John Deeres have the exhaust in the center of the hood. I thought that the JD tractors in the EU had the side mounted exhaust but I see some in the US was this an option or a later model of the series?

    Lot of people say the 6030 was way underrated as far as horsepower. I have read the were more in the 250hp range and could be turned up to almost 300hp...

    Keep up the great, informative videos! Are you able to get or have any footage of Case 70 series tractors? Our small family farm here in Southwest Michigan has a few of them (670, 970, 1370, and 2670 4wd with crab steer), but sad to say most need work and tlc. It'd just be nice to see some actually working again.

    I like them all their John Deere. Back in the late 60's a neighbour bought a new 5020. That was the talk of the coffee shop. The older farmers shook their heads and woundered why the hell would anybody need a tractor that big.
