I agree , del , I have a 3020 & 4020 , both Diesel powershift , 1964's , makes them 40 yrs old now . 3020 has a 148 loader , use it daily moving round bales , manure loading , grinding feed , snow removal etc and all the other chore jobs around here . I overhauled it in 1971 , I rebuilt the injection pump a year ago , that's about all that has been done to it .
Tractors from that time were simple , rugged , easy to work on and there isn't anything I can't fix on them , try that with these newer electronic wonders . For me I do not need a computer or other electronic gadgets to shift my gears and run my hydraulics . Newest row crop tractor I have is a 4840 , still simple by todays standards .
Tadays Tractors , what will it cost to keep them running 40 years if they run that long????
