That's one of those P.O.S 5000, 5010 and 5020 series utility tractors introduced in 1992. Built in Augusta Georgia. The transmissions in the 5000 and 1st portion of 5010 production are just awful. Latter tractors are only terrible.
It was 30 years since the last flop with the 2010 diesel. So it was time for the next generation of engineers and executives to learn that lesson over again.
This time instead of admitting they made a p.o.c trying to build a economy tractor. And drop it quick before the name and model were tainted any worse as they did with the 2010.. They kept trying to "polish a turd".
There is a bunch of senior JD employees that should trade places with the janitorial staff. I'm certain better choices would have been made.
I'd purchase a Valtra new instead of any 5000/5010/5020 series.
The stinker 5000/5010/5020's have made for good sales of the smaller versions of the Mannheim built 6000/6010/6020 tractors. The JD 5205/5305 look pretty good to me too.They seem to have some engineering dating back to the 55 series.
The 20,30,40,50 & 55 series built in Dubuque and Mannheim Germany from the early 1960's to 1992 are in high demand used. The reliability, convenience and resale value is legendary. If you ever find someone with a 2155,2355,2555 or 2755 with M4WD in good shape. And priced cheap, send me an e-mail pronto.
