A Brand New John Deere 6030 (20 Hours!!!)- Lewis Farms Tour

Join along as we take a tour thru Lewis Farms in Sauquoit New York and get to see some of their operation and fleet of equipment including a 1974 6030 that had been gone thru front to back and made 100% new with a John Deere 619 engine in it as well. Thank you for watching along

[@charlieyellowstone8248]

That 6030 is absolutely beautiful. 👍

[@jameslcoble248]

I honestly love these farms that still use the old classic tractors. Nothing wrong with the new equipment just nice to see the older equipment still going. Hope you are having a great trip.

[@hairlesscat6458]

I could be totally wrong but from what I hear there is plenty wrong with the modern tractors. But I hear this from a bunch of old guys down here in Southwestern Virginia so take it with a grain of salt as these guys aren’t the most open to modernization, still really cool guys though.

[@DuffyAg]

Always nice to see old equipment working and the new stuff is comfy but comes with headaches for sure

[@drummerdnoneya5604]

@@DuffyAg yes they have a lot of headaches, too many electronics and all the pollution gear is overkill. Love these tours you take us on, much appreciated.

Man oh man is that 6030 sweet what a beast

[@eugeneburns2880]

6030 was Awesome, looked and sounded better than the day it rolled off the line probably, thanks for posting

[@MarshallLanier-oi1mk]

Nothing like the sound of a turbo 466 in that 4255. We had three 466s at one point, a 4440, 4450, and a 4455. Those sound guard tractors were near bullet proof for us.

[@kswaynes7569]

The 6030 is beautiful, redone better than when it left the factory!

[@DuffyAg]

Thats for sure how they should of been

[@goslingchewy]

Absolutely beautiful tractor! Love 6030s

[@DuffyAg]

It's an iconic tractor for sure

Beautiful restoration sounds great, hard to find a stronger,tougher tractor, enjoyed the video

[@scottbohn929]

Awesome video ! The 4250 looked & sounded sweet . I would have loved to drive it myself ,yet the 6030 was the icing on the cake.😀👍

[@DuffyAg]

Was a good stop for sure

[@OSUCharger]

May be the most important tractor from modern ag. Helluva machine. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice fleet!

[@cubcadetsteve4148]

They are very nice people👍 I remember Brad pulling there 6030 with the 619 in it at the county fairs and it kicked butt.. My family has a dairy farm in Vernon Center and have cousins that have a farm down the rd from Lewis on 12 heading twords Waterville... Love the videos👍

[@randystout9955]

Had a 6030 - it was a BEAST !!!

[@freedomring4813]

In my early teens I lived on a free stall operation in Amsterdam NY . My stepfather milked the cows and when I was old enough I started to work on the farm They had a 3010,4020 and a 5020 open cab but it had those same front tires ,what a beast I got to just drive it once from one farm to another about 8,10 miles what a dream.The farm is the Holloway Brothers, they sold off the milkers way back in 1975 and have just done hay and grain I believe. Nice place it was. Then I became a heavy equipment Operator and ran many big things.

[@DuffyAg]

The ones who custom chop? My buddy Aaron worked for a Holloway or still does out in the Amsterdam area

[@tractortalkwithgary1271]

That was an amazing restoration of a classic powerhouse of a work horse. For years, a 6030 was the largest tractor that I ever drove. I will never forget those days. I would love to have one of my own. Very much overkill for what I do but it doesn't hurt to dream. Thank you for doing this video.

[@craiger9313]

Yes nice to have a dream maybe one day it will happen here’s hoping

[@t.c.bowling1934]

Nice 4255! What ruins quad range is shifting ranges A,B,C,D while moving.

[@patrickosullivan4021]

That 7810 Duffy, get a hold of one of them sometime 😊

Nicest 2 tractors are the 830 and the 6030, I always wanted a 6030.

Some nice green, but I was checking out the orange (Ariens) ;) Everything I drove was the old 2 cylinders, tractors like the 6030 was "the new stuff" the other farmers had. ;)

Very Nice tractor

[@randybenne9968]

[@happyindeed6392]

My bro has a 4840 with an 8 speed power shift which seems pretty rare around here too. Thanks for the videos.

[@jakenatashafigylutz4646]

4840 only came with powershift. We had one in Minnesota

[@CDFCaptain93]

Spent a few hundred hours on a 6030 back in the day. It would pull a 5 bottom plow or a 12 foot disk with no problem at all. My only complaint was the A/C didn't work all that well.

[@379insk]

What size rubber that 6030 have on back? Looked bit small. Could use 20.8 42 duals

[@AgriVidsProductions]

Proper American monster tractor Chris

[@DuffyAg]

It's pretty iconic for America for sure

[@robertcowden9484]

That green is treating them good just about everything is being worked on at double the cost of red don't want to hurt ur feelings lol

[@DuffyAg]

Haha they all are pretty expensive on parts

Lol! You said you were getting a planting tractor on a recent (May 2023) video and I'm tired and KZbin pops this one up... startled breath and a sigh.

Now way that is brand new That’s insane in so many ways

It's 20 hours since a complete 100% rebuild

[@montybolinger6383]

The 4440 has had a intercooler added or a engine from a larger tractor installed. MORE HP is always good.

[@ericfunck9064]

Green tractor is the way to go

[@Meowschitz]

Be interesting to see how long their farm has been in the family you only get farms that have been 200+ years in a single family on the east coast basically ones from the old colonies. We are a 200 year old ranch in my family this year started in 1821 in northeastern Oregon and if I remember right we are the oldest ranch in the west coast period some have been around longer but none that are family owned still I’m sure there are some farms over there that are pushing 300 years old.

[@DuffyAg]

I'm not actually sure how long they have been farming there but there's alot out here for sure that are 200 years or more

[@Adam_Poirier]

Pretty cool stuff. Hey what was the name of the pulling tractor do you know? I wonder if they pull with the New York tractor pullers association? It looks familiar

[@Massey-man]

Do tractors like that 4255 not have a foot throttle pedal as standard ? Never saw any JD’s in the UK, even 30 series without.

[@caml.5195]

Hey!

[@corysavage2699]

That 4255 doesn't have the stock turbo ;)

[@murraykelm5691]

I don't think there's a tractor made that has more character than a 6030

[@toledojeeper2932]

Why does that 4440 have a intercooler ?

[@damonjones9270]

6030 shows up at the 9 minute mark

[@burtbrooks7731]

That thing is mint 👌 but I’m wanting to know what’s up with that pulling tractor???? That’s my speed 💪

[@pupbiking]

That chevy truck has some serious rust LOL

[@davidpfohl9678]

cripes how do ya let a vehicle get that bad , i mean wash it and stay on prevention ffs thats terrible

[@lounar482]

So it's not "brand new" if it's a 1974 and has been restored. 20 hours are on the rebuild...not since manufactured.

[@nailbender7223]

What was the pulling tractor in the shed

[@DuffyAg]

There was a few that I couldn't show. They build pulling tractors for other people so there's some secrets

[@MrPa1971]

I wonder if that excist some old jd 3640 4wd ????

That is a aftermarket cab

If not 4" rear diameter axles,you have an "average" run of the mill 6030,,even with a 619.

[@gm558]

Wait, this is very much a wild guess, but were those for racing? like tractore racing? well don't answer eather way i just hope it not too stupid of a guess, with the "cab" i don't see it beaing used for much else

[@mikedemo1589]

you are in new york

[@BeingMe23]

It's NOT new or orginal. I know Deere has their last build 4020 (I believe it's right model) with ONLY 25 hours on it. It's just a Museum piece at this point.

[@chriscardoza9785]

Only if it has a power shift that's the only way to go for me and mine would be red anyways..

Believe there is only 1 6030 power shift out there. And it was not a factory option

[@Jwinter7258]

@@DuffyAg I didn’t know they made one with a powershift. Pretty awesome. I prefer powershift over synchro but that’s me

[@DavidJones-me7yr]

I thought this turn out to be BS and I was right! Completely gone through is not brand new!

[@mr19471985]

In my view, a rebuild is not considered new, it is used rebuilt.

[@DuffyAg]

Id agree but when everything is 100% rebuilt and all the nuts and bolts and wiring and seals and bearings are 100% new id say that's pretty much brand new

[@oldfarmer3001]

why cant we see...

[@ryanbeyea2834]

What's up

[@farmrrick]

Those are the hours since restoring it right ? Otherwise why would someone buy a 6030 and never use it ?

[@DuffyAg]

Yes they used it prior then did a 100% rebuild on it from every nut and bolt to seals and bearings put the 619 in it and the cab on
