Yea. I still remember how there used to be a lot of 150 to 300 acre farms around when I was a kid back in the 60"s. Nearly every make of tractor could be seen in my area. Predominately though, it was John Deere 4020"s and IH 806"s, but Massey Ferguson 165"s were popular too with the smaller farmers of that day. Cotton was king. Soybeans were queen and almost everyone had a few head of beef cattle. Four row equipment dominated with just a very few older farmers still using 2 row stuff. Its all changed now. At one time there were seven tractor dealerships in our town of 5000 people. Only the JD dealership survives in this area with the nearest Case/IH being 35 miles away. The rest all gone.
