These old promos were brutal. Love them. Still know several people running White tractors in their fields today.

[@JH-qi7fz]

These are great tractors. Still see a lot of them in use today.

[@gordonvanpatten6637]

WHAT a huge jump ahead by White AGCO to bring a Cummins powered Tractor that gave Deere and Case a darn good run.

[@joels5394]

Pretty bold statement to say JD never made very good products. A year later the introduction of the JD 8000 series put these tractors to shame. AGCO struggled branding all these tractors. Same tractor had 3 or 4 different names.

[@devinstocker3215]

that shot with the tractors rolling out of the smoke is the best

[@Corydakat]

props to the camera man for standing on the trailer as it was moving to get the shot

[@dirtthunder1638]

Olive had a CVT they were close to production on. White killed it in favor of a 6x6 that never made it to market. AGCO killed the 6x6 to go total power shift. Then AGCO bought Fendt to get the CVT. Old is new.

[@dakotastartzman2577]

Agco took on Fendt in the North American market with an IVT transmission. At that time JD and Case were using a CVT and "PowerShift" that couldn't touch the precision of Fendt.

[@Sjanzo]

IH patented their Vari-Torque transmission in 1981. The patent expired in 1996, the same year Fendt introduced their Vario. Steyr showed their CVT too, but waited till 2000 before going into serial production, with a better product than Fendt.

I’d they would make one of those cows say “What the f*ck” I would get out of my chair right now and go buy a White

[@hedydd2]

No pressure then Mr Ratcliffe! That’s not just a dealer pep-talk. It’s a lecture and a warning to move metal or move along by being replaced by more hungry dealers.

[@brycehanson5863]

Nice video!! I'm a Case guy but love all the old promos. Funny how they finally got around to a tilt hood case had that in 78 and the Cummins engine is just as much Case as Cummins.

[@ashleyflint3501]

Reliability and honesty are the best market sellers of any product and word of mouth, not spending millions on advertising . Put that money into Dealership awardships for providing great service.

[@1978garfield]

Agco made a big mistake dropping all the older brands. Agco Allis was still orange and had a triangle, it was the successor of AC. Challenger,Fent and Valtra don't mean anything to me as brands. One of the speakers said he had made their dealerships worth more since Agco took over. I wonder if White and Agco Allis dealers agree with that statement now?

[@mikezahnow1605]

Should have had the cows talk when it drove by.

[@jamieshields9521]

Great vid👍if anyone who understands n love tractors listens to AGCO CEO described how they brought Hesston, MF n their vision for AGCO n now who laughing after buying Fendt they have gone gang busting as business. I wish AGCO could offer AC model, drop MF range n that offers all AGCO best in tractors to offer tractor like 2020 Magnum but without Fendt expensive range. Offer full range Gleaner harvest n hay range instead putting Fendt name on combine. I know some AGCO dealerships can’t offer some services because they don’t have technical support backup, their are to small in Australia compared other two brands. I enjoyed this vid👍

[@leslieholman3121]

What did so many brands of tractor in is the fact farm after farm went out of business.

[@JS-1983]

Good looking tractors, unfortunatunely we don't have those in Europe, but there is pretty same tractors as White or Agco Allis sold as MF, Same, Lamborghini and Deutz Hope to see film about Agcostar tractors someday.

I remember when the white tractors color was white and yellow now they have alot more gears than tractors in the 1970s even 30 years ago OMG 11 19 2O22

[@Okiefarmer]

Fast forward 10 years. AGCO dumped the product line names of Allis Chalmers, White and Heston. All took a back seat to become MF rebranded equipment.

[@cowwhisperer8927]

They are the same as Massey Ferguson not?

[@endoresu]

26:36 "The PowerShift transmission, compared to the Ford and John Deere I tried, is a lot less noisy, and the automatic reverser is a lot smoother and faster than the Ford, and the John Deere doesn't have a reverser so it can't compare"

[@edharm8446]

Mr Ratliff was a visionary and a great promoter.

[@randymagnum143]

"Here's another tractor that's not as good as an 8000 series Allis"

[@matthewbarnes7075]

I'm not sure if they met their dreams of killing the Magnum :)

[@AJmx2702001]

I thought Ratliff would had learned a lot from IH but just think they trashed all the Heritage which would have sold the same tractor he shows just with a color look and model number that was in line with those Clover green and Prairie Gold colors . And just 7 years later a man from Italy that came in with Fiat actually Pulled off 2 brands on a common platform. CNH

[@outdoor044]

Commence awkward silence at 24:10... That was a real Jeb Bush moment basically asking them to clap.

[@alecmcniven1713]

Like how they don’t show like a 7800 or something for Deere witch was the current tractor at the time but they show a 4440 from 10 years prior 😂

[@jeremymayer2454]

6175 (which was shown) was bigger than a 7800. Deere's tractor in this class would have been a 4560

[@alecmcniven1713]

@@jeremymayer2454 yea that makes sense the 60 series was kinda a mistake on Deere’s part. Not that there bad tractors or any thing I think there awesome but they were Kinda behind the 8 ball and should have released the 8000 At the same time as the 7000 .

[@brettcolburn8871]

@@jeremymayer2454 that wasn't a 6175 under wraps on the trailer. It was an AGCO Allis.

[@generationll]

Ironically within 8-9 years AGCO would phase out these silver & charcoal tractors.Meanwhile green tractors are still being made in Waterloo & red tractors in Racine.CaseiH also brought out there 2nd series of Magnums the 7200s.John Deere followed in 1994 with the 8000 Series.I think that Ford also introduced a innovative Genesis Series tractors to.I think in 1994 a 215hp 6125 would be added

[@jamesbarbour8400]

Is that gearshift built by Funk by any chance ? I seem to recall that Ford used it in their TW series replacements, like the 8630/8730 & 8830.

[@J-1410]

Back in the good ol' days of agco when we all had hope that they could pull it off, keep all the brands alive Then again we had Ratliff and Allis Gleaner Company was thrown around alot.

[@Jordannelson23]

Ooooh removable side sheet get that from Allis Chalmers did ya

[@mrbill4187]

The ceo kind of passes the buck on the reason deere took over number one. The main reason was the ten and twenty series tractors were way more modern than what anyone else had. And the 560 problems as well.

[@Jordannelson23]

That and International Harvester had its company in too many product lines

[@michaellauritsen5433]

Instead of just sticking with AGCO Allis, they kept bringing on new product names to try and support dealers, promotions, innovations to multiple brands with differences and marketing. What a mistake they made. Should of been Agco Allis and purchase Allis Chalmers name back, Gleaner followed by Hesston and Fendt.

[@brettcolburn8871]

Not even a White under wraps on that trailer. That was an AGCO Allis.

Nothing beats a Cummins diesel, just ask Deere who recently had to bow down to Cummins to reduce emissions.
