Hi from the UK 🇬🇧. What a switched on young man Eric is. There is no doubt that where in the World or soil type, type of farm these people work, they are so tuned into what works for them on there various applications and listening to his thought process in his tractor choice was very interesting. Respect to you and it's great to have TH-cam.
We have a 7220 we also use as planting an spraying tractor on our dairy farm. We love ours!!! Also my 4 year boy watches all your videos! I really appreciate your videos. Your speech with no cuss words etc is so refreshing an dont need to worry about my boy picking up bad language while watching!! Leep up the good work
I had a 7520 mfd that had some problems, but I wasnt the first owner either. You may consider taking it to your dealer for their winter check just to make sure everything is at the correct parameters. At 5000 hours check the condition of the turbo, remove the tubes from intake and exhaust check for any oil leak around the seal, and spin the rotor to check for roughness. If it ever had a loader on it check the wear on the bolster bushings on the front end. Since you have the quad, not the ivt, you dont have a problem with the electronic hydraulic controls. Nice looking tractor Eric. Good luck.
I am so glad your content is just pure farming things. Other “farming type videos” always have political stuff or just other crap. Your videos are amazing to watch and I always get excited when one comes out. Keep up the great work
Yup, as someone who’s not American, I get why people are so passionate and want to talk on their channels about things that affect them. I’d just rather watch cool farming stuff.....so I’m a huge fan of this channel.
Our farm has had 3 6x20 and one 7320. Extremely solid tractor. A few of ours have over 11xxx hours all with little maintenance running bedding wagons. You’ve got an excellent tractor there
Congratulations on the new tractor! Always an important investment to a farm. I remember our first (new used) JD tractor delivered to the farm, 50 years ago. It was the newness that struck me the most. Our old Alice Chambers was ancient and the Neufield was too. We still used a team of horses as well. We felt so blessed.
We used to own a 7220 front wheel assisted a few years ago. I really liked it, but we needed more horsepower and decided to replace it. We've never had any issues it and with the 2WD, I think you'll have a good time!
Eric, I think you did great picking out a great tractor to meet your needs. It is always a good thing getting a tractor in a class that you are familiar with-probably uses the same filters, parts etc. You have to do what is best for your farm and finances. Your reasons were sound, logical and seem to be well thought out. I am excited to see it in the field and the possibly new sprayer or sprayer upgrades you spoke about. God Bless and Stay Safe :)
I hope you like your new tractor. My father-in-law works at a Kubota dealership in Indiana. I am a little biased. I am glad you like the Kubota you do have.
Should serve you well i have a few twenty series with lots of hours on them. You have nice long axles,I have a set of hubs and wheels if you want a set of duals for it. The set I have are 18.4x38 that came off of a 7710. That will help with the ride as well with the narrow row spacing.
@@10thgenerationdairyman $2,000 for the hubs and wheels with tires. They are 18.4x38 tires. The hubs are over $1,000 a piece from Deere with the wedges and the hardware.
I live about four miles from the John Deere main tractor assembly plant. The 7200 series were and are very popular tractors, the flat front cab and corner post exhaust are still some of the best innovations they have ever come up with. The variable displacement hydralics will really show up with sprayer hydralic drive is much nicer and smoother than pto
hope you take us along if. you can to see the dyno test and the outcome. Nice job on the tractor, wise investment and well thought out. Take care and have a good one.
Been around 7000 series deers for 20 years.(7210/6140M) Only draw back I have with them is the 3pt control (electrical issues) but other than that should be a solid tractor for you.
We run a 7230 for raking and baling hay . Other than being front wheel assist its basically the same tractor . You will absolutely love being able to put in a range then go through the gears with a button ... I don't think you will be disappointed at all .
This tractor has been a workhorse for us. It was used a lot in situations that should have been bigger, higher horse power tractors, But circumstances made us have to put this tractor to the test- and it was amazing- it performed well and the tight turns helped us so much on some of the odd shaped, smaller fields. This will be useful for many years, in many applications.
We used to have a 2wd 7210, it was a great tractor. We had a 6420 with the same transmission as you just got, it was a good tractor too, but the 7210 is still my favorite actually, it turned so sharp ran nice and smooth had great sightlines and sat at a good height long gone now though.
Nice purchase Eric, good to see a farmer buying equipment that suits their particular operation, not buying shiny new metal just to impress other people.
Pretty solid reliable tractors. I would suggest replacing the water pump if it hasn't had one yet. Also would suggest going to JD dealer and ordering a set of the black rear fender extensions. They keep the tractor cleaner and free from rock chips and they really look nice also in my opinion.
I work with a JD 7420 and traded in a JD 7640 for another JD 6170R. We are currently having a lot of issues with the exhaust filter system on the pre-def 2WD 6170s... Just make sure you keep up on your fluids, filters (fuel especially), and grease in it. Good buy though, I saw it listed
You are gonna be really happy with this tractor. We have a 7400 that we bought new back in the day. It has somewhere around 20,000 hrs on it now. Left had reverse is really handy for a feed mixing tractor if you ever use it for that.
Sweet New tractor. Very good buy indeed. Is suggest for gps just put a John Deere ATU 300 On that. Fits very good and less wiring than on your NH. Greets from a John Deere sales man from the netherlands
I have a 7320 MFWD and a 6420 MFWD with a 673 loader. Both have the IVT transmission and I have been very pleased with them so far. I think the 20 series Deere are a sweet spot of technology while still being serviceable.
I live in Sweden, When I grew up Valtra and Volvo BM were very common but today I see mostly John Deer, Fendt and Massey Ferguson. But my dad still has his 40 years old Ford tractors still working it does not want to die.
yep, you should blue Loctite every bolt. I've noticed you have a lot of bolts that come loose, when they do they strip and ruin your gear. You should get the bigger bottle and keep it handy for all the wrenching you do. I don't use red because I've stripped bolts. Anyway, keep up the great content Eric. I wish you all the best with the new tractor. My parents live in Harrisburg and they tell me it's snowing like crazy this year.
why is it that in most of the videos that I watch about farming nobody uses LOCKNUTS? Have these people not hear of this product? Been using them for years now and no problems.
Congratulations with that new (oid) tractor. I think it will do a good job for you, as it is nimble and has a very good visibility all around. It should be powerful enough for your applications.
The best in this tractor is engine sound. I have 6930 and i don't listen to the radio, but I open small window and I listen to the engine sound. Good old John Deere
Congratulations on the John Deere! I’m sure you will enjoy. As a kid growing up...all the farmers around had the green machines. I never drove one but they seemed to enjoy them an I think they look real sharp! Keep on keeping on and God Bless ❤️!
That would be a great feeding tractor. I ran a 7430 at work and it was a great machine. I want to say it had the updated power quad with the E range. Great machine other than it was slow (25 mph) compared to Fendts at 34.5 mph.
That tractor is a nice one . Even with the hours on it .I no you will take good care of it . That's why I watch your videos because you do such a excellent job taking good care of you equipment and your cows and family. Keep it kiddo
Everyone’s talking about the tractor. How bout that beautiful Pete !
I'd like to hear the jake brake 🥰
That Pete was MINTY FRESH
I totally agree
Who’s Pete?
Jason Horning, he's a local there. Eric is in the middle of the 717, home of the baddest trucks on the planet.

I love your vids sonne farms!!
Just curious but didn’t y’all have a 7130 2wd for feeding at Jeff’s place?

Looks like you could put dual tires on the rear so that would help with traction if needed. Nice tractor hope it works well for you guys.
ERIC KNOWS HOW TO DO EVERYTHING! I have a 79 Monte (42 yrs. old) & with his help I could still have it on the road at 62 yrs. old! yay :) :)

Good to hear. I thought about getting duals for it. Probably would want them off for spraying row crops though. How much would you want for them?
@@10thgenerationdairyman $2,000 for the hubs and wheels with tires. They are 18.4x38 tires. The hubs are over $1,000 a piece from Deere with the wedges and the hardware.
Ok ill let you know. Probably wait and see how things go this year with singles then decide. Thanks
We have 2 7420s . Love them both. 1 is 2 wheel drive. No problems in the 8-10 years we’ve had them. I think you’ll be happy with it.
NOTHING RUNS LIKE A DEERE ERIC👍NICE LOOKING TRACTOR
I’ve got a 6220 for spraying orchards. It’s smaller engine but pretty much the same machine. Very nice tractors
The farm I work for has a 7720 and I love to run it. It has a lot of hours and still runs great. It should serve you well.

Hello hope you are doing great
hope you take us along if. you can to see the dyno test and the outcome. Nice job on the tractor, wise investment and well thought out. Take care and have a good one.
I like those tractors they are nice and easy driving
Nice tractor. We have a 6155 m two wheel drive. I love the turning radius on it. Especially because it's on the feed mixer.
Always nice to have a little green on the farm.
Been around 7000 series deers for 20 years.(7210/6140M) Only draw back I have with them is the 3pt control (electrical issues) but other than that should be a solid tractor for you.
Clean cab for the last time!
Life of a Work Tractor!
Congrats for the new tractor Eric, I love how efficient you manage your equipments.
Very nice tractor Eric. You were smart to go and look it over before you bought it.
You have an awesome work ethic. We the People appreciate what you do
Congrats on the new purchase Eric
We run a 7230 for raking and baling hay . Other than being front wheel assist its basically the same tractor . You will absolutely love being able to put in a range then go through the gears with a button ... I don't think you will be disappointed at all .
I don't know anything about tractors other than I like the way they look and are fun to watch. Thanks for the video.
Good looking machine! And if you have a problem with the sprayer pushing you around you can always get duals.
This tractor has been a workhorse for us. It was used a lot in situations that should have been bigger, higher horse power tractors, But circumstances made us have to put this tractor to the test- and it was amazing- it performed well and the tight turns helped us so much on some of the odd shaped, smaller fields.

That pete was beautiful and so is that JD tractor . Good pick eric
I know your pumped. Good for y’all! Hope it runs good for many days and years.
Very nice tractor we have a 7320 about 9800 hours on it now it’s now a mixer tractor but never had a single problem with it
We had a 8100 John Deere ,loved it ,to bad it wasn’t a front wheel assist,it didn’t fit our operation here in Saskatchewan
Nice tractor. Looking forward to seeing it run with the improvements (maintenance?) y'all are making on the planter and the new sprayer.
Are you going to put some suitcase weights up front to help with turning and a smoother ride?
We got a 7520 and 7420, love them both, both are loader tractors 7420 has 13,600 hours and haven't never to do anything but typical maintenance
Nice deer I'm glad you picked that one, like they say nothing runs like a deer.
We used to have a 2wd 7210, it was a great tractor. We had a 6420 with the same transmission as you just got, it was a good tractor too, but the 7210 is still my favorite actually, it turned so sharp ran nice and smooth had great sightlines and sat at a good height long gone now though.

Tony bales would be proud. Awesome channel Eric you're doing a great job keep up the good work. Good bless
Nice looking tractor never ran a 20 series but I really like the 30 series and like you I like the transmissions you really run through the gears
I hope the tractor fills your needs Eric! Stay safe and keep well!
We have a 7520 MFWD with over 14,000 hours. Power quad. Its been a solid unit

Congrats on the tractor hopefully u guys like it and that it serves u well

Looks like a clean unit for what your using it for
Brilliant video Eric, thank you! Great choice of tractor!
Congratulations Eric that tractor will be a great addition to your farm

We have a Mccormick CX 105 and a MTX 120 and a TTX190 they both have been really good tractors.
My favorite color tractors😍. Congratulations on the new Deere, hope that it gives you years of trouble free service! Nice turning radius.

same
Congratulations on the new tractor. Looking forward to seeing it in action..
Congratulation Eric on your new tractor. God Bless.
Looks good. Enjoy watching your videos. Good luck with the tractor.
Go with nylock nuts (have nylon at the top of the nut) on your implements, they don't back off
why is it that in most of the videos that I watch about farming nobody uses LOCKNUTS? Have these people not hear of this product? Been using them for years now and no problems.
Yeah they are also very realiable
good luck with the new tractor. Hope you got a good price for the new Holland one ( Australia was called "New Holland " once !!
I can’t believe the knowledge that goes into farming you can tell this isn’t his first rodeo at a young age!!!! Impressive 👏

What a tidy tractor, hope it serves you guys well! 👍
Jason Horning (the blue Pete) has a slick ride 👍🏽
I drove a 6920 for my boss it done 17000 hours before he sold it
Great tractors👍
The JD looks a tidy piece of kit and if it does the jobs you want it to do thats all that matters, good luck with it.👍

FINALLY THE TRACTOR IS HERE IT'S NOT A BAD LOOKING TRACTOR AS LONG AS IT WILL DO THE JOB WHO CARES 👍👍
The smaller frame 7x30 and 7x20 are very good tractors. Well mix feed with a 7210 and its at 14k hours
Yes you should definitely turn it up a bit the 20 series sound so nice when they are turned up
Wow , what a beautiful tractor , congratulations , enjoy , stay safe , have fun ! Rock on ! Bob
