This whole thing is funny. Every tractor company claimed to be better than the others. Some made it and others failed. A lot of IH failing was bad decisions at the top too numerous to list. For a little fact checking IH outsold JD the last several years before they closed their doors. By a wide margin. But JD was operating at about 5-6% profit and IH was trying to do it on 2%. My question is how did, what most considered to be a 3rd rate company at the time, buy out a 2nd rate company that even though no longer US owned is still giving JD some stiff competition?

As far as the 10 and 20 series JD's are concerned. Folks around here loved the 4010/20's. The 30's were not as well received and many people who bought them got rid of them as quickly as possible. In fact YT is the only place I've ever seen or heard anyone claiming that they were a great tractor. Everyone else I've ever known who has/had one hated them because of leaks and other problems.

The OP ask for advice on the value of a non running 3010 gas. Not a running argument over which tractor company was better.

So, not knowing a lot about the 3010 but with some experience with the 20....not running, most likely abused I wouldn't offer too much over scrap unless the rubber is really good/near new.
