Farmall or International

plowhand · Mar 26, 2021

Is one of these companies better than the other?

super99 · Mar 26, 2021

Same company, kinda like Chebby and GMC. Farmall's were row crop and Internationals were standard tractors.

if you mean tractors,.. i like international . them farmalls are hard to get on and off. darn near yank the steering wheel off trying to get on. i figured out why they dont have fenders... cause the big guys would never get on them. my 560 farmall has fenders and i find it a struggle to get on and off.and with all this safety stuff going on nowadays the farmall with out fenders would be banned! yet my 560 international i can just jump on and off like nothing. then there is the field work... with a farmall you are eating dust and look like a brown boy. with the international the big fenders protect you from wind and dust. plus the farmall you are sitting way up high in the open wind frezzing ur azz off. international is a field tractor for big wide open spaces. those farmalls are a puttering around tractor in potatoe fields. well thats my 5 cents worth since we have no pennies. and i am referring to tractors from the 40's to early 60's.

So what you're saying is you definitely dont like Farmalls?

rustred · Mar 26, 2021

well its like 2 girls,.. one you like better.

I was talking about tractors now I suppose your gonna say size matters

rustred · Mar 26, 2021

well ya if you want to get the field plowed.

plowhand · Mar 26, 2021

My grand daddy always said it's not how deep you plow it's how long you stay in the field I dont think it would matter Farmall or IH in my opinion.

rustred · Mar 26, 2021

well i still say international has better traction so you could go deeper if the need arises, and just pull the TA back and get through the tough spot with out heating her up too much.

It's the same company. Just different lines/models of tractors. Some folks like the Farmall better
Some folks like the Inyernational Wheatland better. If you raise row crops you want a rowcrop Farmall. If you farm in the big wide open prairies and raised only wheat and use only pull behind equipment, then you will probably want an international standard Wheatland.

Yes but at some point they all were called International. Then CaseIH and I guess I don't even know what they're called now.

504 · Mar 26, 2021

My 504 Farmall was a row crop,the 504 International is a utility. Engines were the same different gears and hydraulics. A 300 International(utility)is parts limited,the steering box is just waiting to break and parts are hard to find,a 300 Farmall is a lot better tractor because it has a better design with the same motor. IMO

can you define just what you are calling Chebby. Is this your attempt at being funny, or showing ignorance?
