If you like fixing stuff all the time then green tractors are great!

Hmmm..... used an abused three tractors everyday. Always outside, never seen a barn before, one mows roadsides, forests, and does all of our heavy work, middle is the loader tractor, small one is our odd job tractor, only problems we have came from the middle tractor needing a clutch last year, my boss is very tight, and this stuff doesnt get the care it should, im pretty sure oil changes go waaaaaaaay overdo. Been there a year and only know about oil being changed once. Middle tractor was used as a bulldozer, snapped the exhaust off, put a hole in the hood, ripped out the grill, ripped off side skirts, snapped front driveshaft cover off, and found a missing freeze plug from the intake(dirty air goes directly into engine). All three still have insane power for condition, small tractor is lime green from sun, and the middle tractor is black from rain water being spewed out of exhaust, big tractor is to new to have nothing more than bleached plastic. Yeah, id say theyre tough tractors.

I used a 2007 John Deere 130 horse (can't remember the number) with a $100,000 price tag and while I was using it the shift linkage broke and the a/c quit working. Also one of the tilt cylinders on the loader didn't work and it was a John Deere loader

A heavy frame 6000 series or a small 7000 series.

Confused?? John deere has changed all of theyre model numbers except fir the 9000 series, that will be soon. And a small frame 6000 series packs a big tractor punch in small tractor size, preferable for a heavy duty barnyard tractor, the large frame 6000 series packs more punch with big tractor size, preferable for field work(spraying, fertilizing, hauling), and the 7000 series packs a bigger punch and is great for many different tasks in the field.

Id say either 7630 or 7730 cause our 7830 has 135 horse...


RED is for trucks, GREEN is for tractors

7730 then. Its all good, that thing isnt really the best loader tractor. Best loader tractor is the small frame 6000 series. And youre right. My truck is red, my tractor is green. John deere and ford is the perfect combo
