Thanks for posting this video on the beautiful Ford tractors. My dad had two 4000 tractors. One he bought new in 1967 and the second one was bought new in 1971. They were good tractors. It’s good to see these farmers operate their equipment at a moderate speed!

Depends on the modern stuff. John Deere machines will never reach that stage because their software will lock up, they won’t let you repair it without hacking even though you own it, and planned obsolescence. Smartphone idiocy spreading like a disease 🦠

Hi Jason! Thank you for the video. This was very educational. It seems the stock markets and “hostile take overs” have changed the landscape in tractor manufacturing and probably decimated some good companies along the way. Some seem to persevere like Versatile has. Thanks for sharing this history. It’s very important. I’d love to see more.

We came across an FW-400 the other day in extremely nice condition. Never seen it at that farm before, though they do run other older Ford's and NH tractors. The decal definitely said FW-400, not 40, so not sure what is up with that unless they did make a model with that designation at some point. Where does the term designation 6 come in/from? Is that from the 6 at the end of each model number?
@bigtractorpower 2 жыл бұрын
FW-40 is extremely rare. If it says FW400 some one customized I suspect. If you any pics you can email me at toytractortimes@gmail.com and I can better tell.

Ford Blue fan no matter who they acquired. Over the years we ran tractors as small as the 2000 with no power steering, also the ever popular 5000 with power steering, 3 different 7000 series-the 7000, 7700, 7710 series II, TW-20 also got some time in. I currently own a 1086 International, and it runs great, but shifts much quirkier than the Fords, and rides like a brick. The The quick response steering and predictable shifting on the Ford tractors of that era win my vote, but that 86 series IH sure runs like a champ, and holds enough fuel to get it done, if you can justify filling it up. Over $400 each time to do that right now. Please open up the pipeline. My 86 series can't go electric.
