Being born in 1972 the machines of the late 70's and all through the 80's made the biggest impression on me. From Pickaway county Ohio CASE and IH seemed to be most popular.
Im glad to see my familys old minneapolis moline a4t still in working condition after it was bought from us and to see it now at that show is cool....
Thanks for bringing me peace knowing its in goof condition and not at a scrap yard
Sadly didn’t get to meet you in person but did watch you rolling down ground. I was never at the show before but I thoroughly enjoyed it!!!
Sorry I missed you. It was fun running the rice roller. It mashes the clods of earth well. Glad you got to attend the show.
Dang, the white 4wd, i love
Ran one for many years. Miss that old girl.
That Massey Ferguson 5200 what a awesome beast of a tractor. You can tell it's pulling it's load with ease. Hands down it was the baddest looking tractor there. They are all great tractors I love all the old classic tractors no matter the brand. The White is a real eye catcher, Beautiful tractor.
Those farmers are clearly having fun ! Back when I was knee high to a grass hopper, Dad taught me how to use our 4x4 ih 4166 and 7x18 ih reset plow. I spent many a day operating that plow. My neck got so terrible sore. Dad still got those. Great video.
Wow very cool. I have always wanted to film a 4166.
It was great being able to meet and film alongside you! Looking forward to the next video!
Great to meet you Drew. Keep up the good work.
Boy those fields are so so dry , you folks sure went through quite a drought this year. Down here in Atlantic Canada it was so wet that I just finished my first crop of hay this weekend. Had to roll the wind rows over 3 times because there were spots where there was water on top of the ground. Oh well I got to save some money this year as I made all three crops in one. Hope all goes well for the American farmers this year. Thanks for the video
I Enjoyed watching the older tractors McCormick and John Deere. I remember as a kid we used the B Farmall for planting 2 rows at a time plowing, with a disc
The WFE 4-210 is my favorite 4wd to see out there. Great video.
It is a well cared for tractor.
Thanks for taking time to talk to us yesterday and answering questions about your tractor. Keep up the great work, we look forward to all your videos.
That was fun Jason. Another great video . Those farmers have to get a great "rush" showing off their toys.
Great show and another great video!!!
MY FAVORITE... ARE THE 2 FARMALL M AND 300 HOOKED UP TOGETHER... DID NOT KNOW THAT THEY DID THAT BACK IN THE DAY...
BIG OL RED TRACTOR POWER... IH 4 LIFE...!! 👨👩👧👦❤📿🇺🇸
It is a cool set up. I have a video posting Sunday on tandem tractors and showing how they work.
The articulated Whites are some of the nicest and stylish looking tractors ever !
They sure stand out. 👍👍
What day was the Allis 8550 working? I missed that one. My son was so thrilled to take a picture with you and your Steiger, Jason. Thanks for all your work and content.
That looks like Jake in the opening shot in that 4-210. The nice tractor and his cowboy hat are dead giveaway's ;-) I sure miss him on YT
That is Jake. Good guy.
Another awesome video show looks like a great one to visit.
Beautiful machinery, thanks for sharing with us
Thank you for watching.
Very good video I love watching these older tractors bring me back to when I was a kid
Thank you for watching.
This show is awesome. All classic machines in this video are great👍😉
It’s a great event. 👍👍
i got to run the 2870 case and loved it back in the early 80s what a piece of machinery
👍👍
Well I loved them all, but Jakes 4-210 obviously takes the cake lol.
It's a very nice tractor.
Thank you for your videos bigtractorpower you are the best
Thank you for watching.
Great video again Jason. Love the Massey 5200!
Thank you for watching.
what an awesome display of horsepower, because of health concearns we are unable to attend the show, i am so grateful you shared this video!!!!!
It’s been a rough year and a half. Hopefully 2023 will be better.
Thanks for the great video you do on big. Tractor power
Thank you for watching.
Loved the 4-210. Love me some Agco
Renner stock farms 450 Tiger is my favourite, keep up the good work
😁👍👍
I really like the Steiger my neighbor has won they bought in the late 70s I've ran their tractor for many of hours
OMG 😱 amazing big tractors
Thank you for watching.
Howdy from New Zealand! Another well put together video mate, good work.
Hi. Thank you for watching.
Great video!
Thank you for watching.
Good night, very top technology you have
Been there it's a great show
👍👍
Excellent video
Thank you for watching.
Hello! Nothing like those oldies with big "old school" engines...
👍👍
Great video Jason. They all had some good qualities. But I did kind of like the Steigers especially the Steiger Tiger. Also the Massive Masseys were pretty intimidating. Heard several Detroit Diesels there!
😁👍👍👍👍
AC 8550.....attended first day.....saw the corn picking and soybean combining...
👍👍👍
Some Big Bud tractors next time! I liked all of the Steigers and the Rite Earthquake tractors too.
I like Big Bud. Only two Big Buds have been at the show. The 16V-747 in 2009 and an HN-320 in 2019. I have a video on the way featuring a Big Bud 440 soon.
Sweet !
Thank you for watching.
Nice video. The MF 5200 almost has a “muscular” styling to it. The Case 2870 is a beautiful tractor, as is the White WFE 4-210. White made some nice looking iron towards the end.
All very cool 4wds.
Allis Chalmers 8550👍👍
I didn’t see any 2+2s, those would be fun to watch as well. A great video regardless. I’d love to make it to Rantoul in person and see these demos in person
They had one there, he just didn’t film it.
There have not been any in the past few years. This video is footage from 15, 17 and 19. There was a great 3788 this year I filmed for a video this week.
I didn't know that Steiger made discs. I'd like to see more of that. It looks heavy built, just like their tractors. Was that Jake in the last clip?
Steiger made a disc that would decouple in half and become a Tow behind disc. Rather than folding up like modern ones. This was back when Hydraulics and such were more cumbersome and hydraulics in equipment was still a newer thing. Still a very cool concept. With fewer moving parts that could break.
They made a chisel plow also
@@mattcraztex9940 not really. There were plenty of hydraulic fold discs when these came out. They bought out Wilbeck
@@nellsonstout7001 yes there were, but Steiger made one that did not fold and became a tow behind. Also allowing lower horsepowerd tractors to tow each half or both for higher horsepower tractors.
@@mattcraztex9940 Willbeck made it originally and Steiger bought them out
The 1000 series Steigers and Whites are my favorites .
👍👍
I miss my old Allis WD
JD 8020, and of course White 4-210 just because i use to run one back in Highschool days. I would like to see a John Deere 435 with the Detroit engine. little tractor, but pretty cool.
Good video
Thank you for watching.
White 4-210 be my favourite
👍👍
The Minny for a fact what a cool looking tractor
The steiger and the versatile were pulling 12 bottoms twice as fast as the tractor on the 20 bottom so at the end of the day they have plowed as much and more than likely more !
There all great tractors I really like the 8020 though
👍👍
Fantastic video. Love the earthquake. Would like to see rome tractors. Overall they are all great tractors, they will pull till the end.
I like ROME tractors. I just recently showed a 475C Rome here on BTP.
@@bigtractorpower thank you. I will look it up.
The white was so awesome
It is a stand out.
@@bigtractorpower great an wonderful video every tractor there was nice pure love to me
Steiger tiger with that kta Cummins you can crank that up to 600 hp and run it all day. And that other Cummins in the steiger 250 hp been turned up too to be pulling a 12 bottom plow at 13.39
I attended the show, seen lots of cool stuff. Did you bring one of your 4 wheel drive tractors?
I had my Steiger Turbo Tiger I at the show. I ran a rice roller and an IH 490 disk with it.
@@bigtractorpower ok, i remember seeing that.
The 8550 Allis
I still get a chuckle at 5:40- 'Two Dopes and a Rope!' Hey, maybe next time they can find a 21-bottom plow and tie an 8N Ford on in front...
Yeah LOL I agree with that comment on the overworked ground obviously doesn't matter how big it is if the ground is overworked it doesn't plow deep ! Lol!
It’s all about demonstration it’s not about raising a crop on this soil. The purpose is to show classic machines at work. They plow these fields twice a day and disk and pack them twice a day for 4 days to allow 60,000 people to see all the equipment at work.
Nice👍 did you see farmhand Mike there
I did not. He has a great channel.
That has to be some of the most over-worked ground on earth. Lol
Yeah, plus I've always wondered what kind of yields they get on that ground where they hold the show. Between the compaction and working the piss out of the ground, has to take its toll, especially in real dry yrs. I remember as a kid telling my Grampa we should get together with other neighbor farmers, and host the Farm Progress show 1 yr, this was back when the Show move around from Indiana, Illinois and Iowa each yr, my Grampa said, no way do we want to be a host, because of all the compaction, and he said a lot of the host farmers over the yrs ended up with financial issues within a few yrs after hosting the Farm Progress show. I do miss having the Farm Progress show being here in Indiana. One of the last Farm Progress shows held in Indiana was just North of us about 15 minutes, which was nice. Over the yrs of my life it had been close to us a few times, which made it nice, not having to drive very far. Now to go the Farm Progress show its close to a 3 hour drive, so I have been to it in a while, but as of now I plan on heading there Tuesday.
These fields are all for demonstrating machinery. They plow these fields twice a day to show machines at work to 60,000 people. The crops are in essence props for the matching to knock down. I bet the price of admission to 60,000 spectators is more than the ground could produce.
@@bigtractorpower lol, yeah I'm sure they make more on admission than they do on the crops raised.
Big Bud
Great tractors.
That Case 2870 still looked like new. It sure looks like they could use a good rain over there, as much as we need one here in Central Indiana. I'm a Case guy thru and thru along with always like the old IH tractors, and loved the Steiger's, but really all the old 4 wheel drive tractors were cool looking back in the day, regardless what brand.
The 2870 and the 595 disk are well cared for.
@@bigtractorpower Yeah, They were both immaculate, you can tell they have been taken well care of over the yrs.
Nice iron
👍👍
Did Monster Max 2 pull any implements?
I did not see it.
Future shows should have lessons on how to set plows…
It’s a rush rush event.
You read my mind. Dad woulda kicked my a@# if I had broke ground and it looked like that. I think most of the guys try to pull an extra bottom or two.
@@woodturnerr8912 it’s embarrassing. If we can’t help people learn why bother?
Steigers are great but that McConnell Marc tractor I've never heard of is it Canadian???🤔
What kind of disc harrow was the 5200 Massey-Ferguson pulling? Never seen a disc harrow built like that
@Ethan Brooks I couldn't make it out on my phone that's why I asked. I didn't know steiger made implements. Learned something new thanks
It is a Steiger Trail-R-Disc built from 1978-1988.
@@bigtractorpower ok thanks BTP
I’m confused...is this recent footage from 2021 show or recycled from your past half century show videos? A lot of the footage and tractors are the same you’ve been showing in past videos...or do the same guys bring the same tractors every show?
Is it dry in the U.S or is it like in Europe, cause it sure rain a lot here. Still amazing machines. I've always liked big tractors and any big machines really. Almost reminds me of the tractor i owned up until last year, when i sold it. Still. I can always buy a different tractor, and i have a few different brands and models to pick from
Some spots are dry and some are and some are just right. Happens every year. The spots that are usually dry are still dry and the spots that are usually wet are still wet. Nothing unusual about the weather. Its always been like this.
@@mikeznel6048 ok
Do you have any if the Jeep pulling the three bottom plow?
I unfortunately do not. I saw him drive by today with the plow while I was disking. I did film him disking yesterday.
Golf carts were sold out! I couldn't go!
Sorry to hear that.
likem all Great vid BTP💖💖💖💖💖👍👍👍👍👍🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌾🌾🌾🌾💪💪💪💪
👍👍
Those big 4WD are cool and I love watching them, but I kinda feel sorry for the smaller tractor guys. Those big machines plow so much ground so fast, just about the only way the smaller guys get to plow much after such a long trip is in already plowed ground and that doesn't take much effort, so they don't get to really run their tractors like they were originally meant to run/work. They need double the acres........or keep them working in separate fields (or maybe they are doing that now?)
I agree with you. I much prefer watching the older machines in action.
@@johnhartman7078 I love watchimg ALL tractors, but I really like watching the older ones when they actually have to work at the job, as in non plowed ground.
And not a single.computer failure or glitch on any of them ! Was the WA-14 JD an original color of green?
I believe the WA 14 is all original.
I swear that’s Ethan on that Tiger.
👍👍
Thank you Alex.
What id do to have a case 2870….So hard to find. Lots of 4890, so few 2870
The 2870 is hard to find. Nice tractor.
I am surprised they didn’t have any versatile 4wd
The poor right side rear tire of the 1470 TK....no one got a spare there? And pls adjust those ploughs, guys xD.....no, seriously, this is so nice to watch
McConnell-Marc looks like a rebadged Massey Ferguson.
It is but it was the other way around. McConnell built the later Massey 4wds.
The White 4-210 is the nicest looking tractor. Agco should have stayed making White
The silver stands out.
Why is it that tractors in the states always drive with full rev, while ploughing and disc-harrowing. Here in DK we dont do that so mutch. Lower rev = less noise in cab, less wear and tear on engnine and less fuel compsumpsion
The ground looks dryer on youtube.
But it was wet in person.
It was moist this year. This video is a compilation of 2015, 2017 and 2019. I have hours and hours of 2021 footage to share after filming completes tomorrow.
I looked hard for you, but was not successful. I do like your videos.
To bad that 20 bottom plow wasn't in the ground.
Looked like they needed to ditch the plows and use subsoilers instead.
This ground is plowed and then packed and replowed. The main field by the flag is plowed twice a day just to show all the machines.
Best one there was the white FACT
The 4-210 stands out.
✌️🇧🇷✌️
Thank you for watching.
So the tractors this year would of been 71and on if we're going back 50 years
That is correct. There were some post 71’ models through the early 80’s. Ultimately this show attracts some really cool tractors no matter the vintage.
Why are old US tractor are so high reving? It sounds like 3-3500rpm i'm from germany so i'm not used to this.
We have some legendary engines like the Detroit diesel two stroke screamers and compound turbo caterpillar monsters.
Some definitely have a unique sounds from operating in different RPM ranges then conventional tractors.
I tend to go for the all the John Deere products
👍👍
I thought it was a bit strange to see some 30 and 40 year old machines at a half century show.
I think the newest I have seen are about 1982. Most are very rare. I think it’s all pretty cool to see.
Even brand new stuff can be “cool to see” - let’s try not to squeeze out the old stuff. 2021 - 50 = 1971
Keep fudging at it might as well be the farm progress show.
The 20 bottom was leaving a center furrow. LOL
The plow behind the earthquake - FAIL
Hat tip to Jake Ziegler for an outstanding job on his WHITE.
👏👏👏👏👍👍👍🚜🚜🚜🚜🇧🇷🇧🇷
😁👍
This is not from the 2021 show. Maybe 2019. There's way more moisture this year. Not sure why you posted this as 2021 show.
I did not say this was the 2021 show in the video. I just stated these are big tractors at the show. I know people are eager to see content from 2021 but I cannot film it and post it sane day. This video shares tractors from 2015, 2017 and 2019. Some of them were here this year too. I am looking forward to sharing the 2021 show later this week. It’s all good iron no matter the year.
You have a Steiger Turbo Tiger I at the show. Interesting!! in the 1970's and 80's here in Western Australia we had Camballin Farms with 60,000 acres of flood type irrigation in the Kimberley's .... they had 20 Steiger Cougars. American (Jack Fletcher) know how and money but it failed with Labour Govt (socialist) ignorance and stupidity. And the state politicians who put the final nails in the coffin are still alive and hopefully living in shame. So now we sell our land to the Chinese - go figure!!!
Not a DEF tank in sight
Definitely not.
😁
Thank you for watching.
No big bud's
That at this years show unfortunately
👏👏👏👏👍👍👍🚜🚜🚜🚜🇧🇷🇧🇷
