That end tractor was CRAZY GOOD!

I have two Ford 5000's Had the 1970 model for 48 years and the 1972 model for 28 years. Those tractors are amazing. Reliable easy to maintain, wonderful tractors. Ford got it right back then.

These lists are always subjective, so my choices for most iconic tractors and the reasoning: John Deere D. Direct descendant of the Waterloo Boy. Produced from 1923 to 1953, thirty years of production marks the longest running single model in history by any manufacturer. A heavy, powerful tractor it was an ideal plowing tractor in the era and the belt drive ran a lot of threshers and grinders over the years. Ford N series. The 9N, 2N, and 8N were groundbreaking with their three point hydraulics. Easy to operate and simple to maintain, these were truly a difference maker with the ease of changing implements and for row crop operation. Farmall Letter Series. The A, C, H, and M along with the Cub and the "Super" version of each pushed McCormick-Farmall to prominence in the 1940s. The integrated hydraulic pump made it easy to plumb in external hydraulics, and the H and M were particularly popular row crop tractors. If I had to choose just one from this series of tractors, it would probably be the H edging out the larger M for honors on the list. Allis-Chalmers WD45. The WD was the predecessor to the WD45, and the D17 was the descendant. This entire series of tractors could be included in the "iconic" category; but the WD45 is the one that took the biggest jump forward. It was a light, powerful tractor, and was the first introduction to power steering from A-C. John Deere 4020. Deere went from the letter series, to the two digit numbers, to the three digit numbers, and then to the four digit numbers starting with the short lived "10" series. When they got to the "20" series, it was the leap that propelled Deere forward for decades. Honorable mention to little brother 3020, the iconic 4020 was the springboard to the subsequent 30 and 40 series tractors.

I would put the Ford 5000 in there, While there is nothing that really stands out in their performance, they simply didn't break, and if they did, unlike John Deere, IH, and others, they didn't cost a fortune to fix. I knew of three that went over 10,000 hours with only regular maintenance not even needing a clutch, just an occasional battery.!

The 4020 you show a very rare model with 4WD. The 4020 save John Deere from bankruptcy

That Fordson was known as the decapitater, those metal ribs on the wheels would grab a downed metal fence and sling it over the operator station cutting the driver in half

[@nicholasbrown7068]

@@zilla2006able Why would it hurt them, they've already been there for decades. Hell, the 4020 was built from 1963 to 1972 in Waterloo Iowa and Mexico!!!

[@davidfields5704]

Agreed sheila

[@luismateoreyna-p2x]

A ford 5000 is cheap reliable ...spare parts no problem until now you can still see them running all over the phillippines...

[@christanner3433]

The 1100/1130 Massey was a far superior tractor than a JD 4020 !!!!

[@Klepel_farms21]

Ok that’s your opinion, this is mine

[@davidfields5704]

Always wetting their pants about the 4020.

[@sheilamclaughlin963]
