Being in the middle of the change over....I remember it well! Our local dealer actually thought the 3010 standard was going to be popular in the rice region. That was a TOTAL mistake....they were gutless. Then, the 4010 standard with the big 26" rubber was the next demo, it was better, but the 830 would outdo it in our conditions. The big rush was on the find elec. 830's, and they were few and far between. It was a mess for JD for a few yrs. until the 4020 came on the market. The 5010 was too heavy for the wet conditions and the R, 80, 820, 830, even the D's stayed until the late 60's. I know several of the farmers that used the 720 & 730 standards and they had to work really hard. They pulled 3 bottom plows on the 3pt. in 2nd gear and it was all they could do. I know this type farming is different from the dryland and just wanted pass on our experiences in the NG changeover.
