    Hi! I'm sorry if I pronounced "Knudson" name wrong - I had a really hard times trying to pronounce this word. I still master my english skills so If you found some words which I used wrong way or pronounced incorrectly please point it out to me so I could fix it next time 🙂

      You did fine.. Trouble with some new technology equipment manufacturers is that they develop some great new technology driven equipment that puts them way out front but that's about it. They can't seem to get much farther ahead and it's only a matter of time until the others catchup and take market share.....Nevertheless....a great video.

      Been working on a 70s model Ford. Was low in tech and innovation but dead reliable. Boss owns that Ford (75hp, naturally aspirated) and a new 2021 Kubota (65hp, turbo) and the older tractor has a hefty amount of torque, comparatively. The newer Kubota feels gutless by comparison. Solid piece of equipment for someone more budget minded in the medium size tractor market.

    Hello from North Dakota!
    My great uncles built their own four-wheel drive tractor back in the '70s. The heck of it was The big manufacturers is weren't making any real effort to make anything of the sort and out here on the plains of North Dakota and up and down the central Midwest big four-wheel drives were what was called for.

      a farmer in brown county ILL built one 1965 I think used payloader axels 671 Detroit and 9 speed Spicer tranny. he all so put 3-point hitch on his station wagon so he wouldn't pay for car plates after 200 tickets he removed hitch from said car put 461 Detroit in a 1968 f250 4x4 put LTD front clip and 12 inches of tin to join the clip to the cab. Then pulled an airstream to mid-south America and back truck and track tore are still at family farm, i think. you talk about a story. his grand son and I rode Harly's some. I would ride over to Jeff's farm to get him, and he would be coursing as he was walking out of one of many barns Grandad took off with my new Harly. will you help me get one of the old ones running. I would say let's just get a beer he will be back soon he is 90 years old.
