Isn:t it ironic to call it "ÿour new tractor" :) That 4786 was the biggest international the time i was in agriculture in the late 70-s. Our biggest was the 1246, 125 hp, which was a realy big thing in that time in this area. (Netherlands) Most seen was the 846 with 80 hp and the 624, 60 hp. The smaller one"s 423, 40 hp you still see on diary farms. Perhaps that was a strong serie.
You should restore his 4786
Beswick Farms Ltd bought me a 4786 at the end of production and a Co-op 808 deep tiller. It was 59 feet and I added 1 more shank on each end for 61 of 14 inch sweeps so I could till 60 feet per pass before GPS. I built a rear hitch on it that I used to pull a large NH3 tank in fall with 4 inch beavertails. I used that same hitch to pull a 67 foot Herman harrow when I prepped seedbed in spring with the 14 inch sweeps. Yes I was proud of my ability to fine tune guage wheels and machine leveling to prep a firm moist seedbed with a deep tiller. I left the harrows wider than the tiller so it would give full coverage when cornering. I rubbed a few fence posts with end of harrow. The tractor was putting out more than 350 and handled this outfit easily where the foothills of the Canadian Rockies meet the Milk River ridge a couple of miles north of Montana. I am not saying that you would want to load yours like that but I put 2900 hours on with no repairs. I did put rubber blocks on the stops for the rolling drawer and kept my radiator clean and serviced it on a tight schedule. Have a 4366 and 4586 now. A 4786 would be welcome. Congratulations on yours.
I spent many, many hours in the 4786, in '70-80, as a high school aged farmhand, in Michigan. I felt like the king of the world, in that machine! Thank you for posting the vlog! It brought back some great memories!
yea I drove that exact tractor in 80-83.....many 16 hour days....in Iowa ....on my Fathers 3000 acre farm....yea Felt like King of the World for about 2-3 hours then I felt like a Slave to the Grind....thank God for Great Rock n Roll Stations with Real Music...and listing to Paul Harvey that was Real NEWS...then Reagan embargoed the Russians and the price of Grain fell...but I feel it did help to bring down the Berlin Wall...American Famers suffered but .. that if that is what it took to help bring down the Berlin Wall it was Worth it///Moved to California in 84 San Diego and NEVER WENT BACK ...but yea Driving that Tractor still Haunts me ...like Turning over Virgin Land with a Miller offset disk bouncing my ASS OFF ...Smelling the Fresh Earth and watching ALL the Creature RUN FOR THEIR LIVES!
This is definitely my favorite video on BTP, really a surprise to see you up in the cab of your own big machine, it is awesome to have it in that condition and total original. Congratulations,
Nou het die man self vir hom ook 'n speelding gekry
lekker
@@pjweir9220 Hi...
Yyy hu
I'm happy for you. You can hear in your voice and see in your face your happiness. You can't remember my comments our where I'm from but you might have noted I'm partial to IHC and Gleaner combines. You don't have to be a farmer to have the passion. The non farmers often show 10 times more heart in farm equipment. In closing you made an excellent choice , I know your tractor well. It was famous in her day and still a strong machine today.
Welcome to the eight wheeled articulated club!!! Congrats
My 3 year old boy is obsessed with farm and construction equipment. We usually watch your channel a couple times a week. He loves seeing the tractors and equipment in action and enjoy the commentary on the history and specifications of the machines. Keep up the good work.
On a side note, I can only imagine the conversation with that farmer: "So you have a tractor and no land to use it on? You want to disc up my field, using your tractor at no cost to me? Well, I'm sure we can work something out..." Lol
Good looking tractor Jason. And awesome you fulfilled your dream and passion for owning that exact same tractor you liked as a kid.
I personally wanted to congratulate you on your purchase of a really big beautiful tractor. Old school and just a joy to watch, both you and your new tractor tearing up some fields. Following ones passion is not easy. What, with all the distractions life throws at us, it's any wonder we can get past first base. Your passion is appreciated by all of us who love and watch your videos. I know I appreciate them and your amazing voice.
The world is a better place with people like you in it.
JR🚜
Thank you for watching and your kind words. It has been fun to own this tractor and run it a bit.
@@bigtractorpower I've been looking for this tractor in 1/16 scale. Not sure if Ertl made one. Really great looking tractor in any scale.
JR🚜
Still looks impressive in the field all these years later. So you say your not a farmer! You are now lol. 👍🏻👏🏻
I am not a farmer either but I really like watching tractor and equipment videos. You make some really good ones. Keep up the great work.
This is awesome. I'm itching to get back into the field so this was a good fix. It's amazing to see how much shatter loss/what got pushed through the combine via the volunteer corn. We don't get to see our volunteer corn growing in the fall in Iowa. Makes me think a little more. Congratulations on the big boy purchase.
Corn is harvested here in August so volunteer corn is in every field no matter the brand. In a warm fall some of the volunteer corn will get all the way to the tassel stage before a frost.
Congratulations ! I know how it is like to chase your dreams ! I have always wanted a peterbilt 379 ! And finally got one about 3yrs ago. I'm broke down now but I'm NOT giving up !! Seeing your dream come true definitely lifted my spirits ! Very happy for you !!
Nice tractor! Tractors of that era were just plain and simple. Don’t get me wrong the tractors of today are great to drive but I too grew up in the 70s and 80s and I still love them older tractors!
I agree. I like filming the big modern machines but finding a nice classic is always an awesome opportunity.
I am really partial to JI Case and Oliver that’s what I grew up on!!!
Very nice. It's rare to see a 47 that hasn't been repowered. Gotta love the rumble of the V8. Congratulations
Yes it does seem to be. When I spotted this tractor driving to film a Challenger tractor I turned around to see if I could line up filming it and I could put it was for sale. 😁👍
I really liked hearing your passion for this type of tractor and the history behind it. I grew up on a farm with a IH 2+2 and a JD 8440. Those two will always have a special place in my heart. Watching your video made me think of that. Thank you for this video.
Nice line up. My favorite toys as a kid were a 1:16 8630 and 3588 2+2 Thank you for sharing.
I look forward every day after driving my tractor trailer to watch your videos. I mentioned in an earlier vid that I grew up farming with my dad. Learned the basics on a JD R model, a JD A model and later a JD 4010, 4020 and a MF 1155. I definitely share your enthusiasm with farm equipment! Thanks Jason!
A very nice tractor! You're a real farmer now!
BTP was smiling ear to ear on that one scene. Love seeing dreams come true.
Hi Jason, it is such a pleasure to now have a face to the voice. What's more, to see you driving your very own TRACTOR. You have brought so much joy through all your Tractor / Farming videos. I have learned so much from them, through you and the information you always share. We were farmers back in the 70's and 80's but alas no more. I love hearing the sounds ans specifically the sound of your 4786 under load. Brings back so many memories. I truly appreciate your love of Tractors and Farming. Well done, you are living your dream.
I grew up on a farm in the 50s and we left in 1964. I remember the time when all the different farm tractors were the order of the day. I always thought the Olivers with their hood sides were the coolest looking and liked the Farmall 400 and 450s but I grew up on WD45 and D17 gas tractors. Haven't driven a farm tractor newer than a 1962 or so model and I am sure I would have a hard time trying to figure out how to even start a new tractor. Thanks for the videos, especially the videos of the older tractors and the specifications.
The 45 and 4786 with IH V800 engines were great tractors. We had multiple units when I was a boy matter of fact it is what I learned on. I used to plow many acres as a boy. The V800 was actually a truck motor and got a bad rep of failure which was due to too high rpm. Later they were governed down which took care of problem. Actually we ran them at 2200 rpm and never had a failure. But an awesome tractor!
An unfortunate and inherent characteristic of V8 engines, regardless of Brand name, is they have very little in the way of torque back up and the only way to get any kind of decent performance out of them, is to rev them in the higher speed range.
Two more cylinders than a straight six and higher rpms equals more fuel useage per hour. This coupled with the low torque is what led most manufacturers to install straight sixes over V8s.
From a purely aesthetic and sound point of view however, a V8 engined tractor is hard to beat.
Glad to hear that your tractor hasn't had any engine issues - they're a great looking machine with the V8 fitted. Also great that people like yourself have the foresight to keep these legends in running order and not simply scrap them. While todays artics may be way more powerful and sophisticated, these old school machines have much more character than the new ones will ever have. They just do what it says on the tin ! 👍
Some youtubers buy Lamborghini’s and Tesla’s. BTP buys a HUGE tractor. Love this channel.
Thank you for watching. Big 4wd Power is way better than a car 😁
Lamborghini 265 is also a tractor,also with other numbers!
I was working for a neighbor in the 70’ s and in 1979 my boss had two 4568’s that he traded for a new 4786 that was the most powerful tractor I had ever driven and it became my favorite ever He also bought a 800 series IH 10 bottom 18” plow We plowed 12” s deep at 5 1/2”-6 mph and we could plow six acres per hour whether we were in a 30 acre field or a 160 acre field that was always amazing to me Your tractor looks like a great purchase and I hope you enjoy driving it as much as I did back in 1979 congratulations
Been watching this channel for years. As a kid from the Netherlands it was fascinating to see the enormous US equipment rolling around across the pond. And to now see that you've purchased an amazing piece of IH history really motivated me to chase my own dreams once again. Thanks for the years of amazing videos and the ones that the future will hold. I cant wait to see more from this beautiful 4786!
Thank you. It’s an honor to have viewers from around the world. I hope to work some ground with the 4786 next month. What is your dream tractor?
Very nice to see that BTP has his own big 4wd tractor👍👍 and a very good choice
Now I know why it is called"BIG Tractor Power".!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Smile as big as 1st owner..
I spent many many hours in a 4786 and that Beast is like a time machine. A young man can escape his life troubles just sitting an operating this Tractor. I’m really happy for you....
Very cool. Was it a white or a red roof? What implements did you run?
I COULD LISTEN TO JASON EVERY DAY TALKING ABOUT TRACTORS AND MACHINES , HE IS THE BEST OF THE BEST WHEN IT COMES TO TRACTOR VIDEOS ON YOU TUBE
Thank you for your kind words. It is fun filming these farm machines to share.
Living the dream . Good for you. Thanks for your vids.
Hey that's a great story sounds like you're living the dream my favorite tractor is a1466 I grew up on a little farm in Michigan but I also am not a farmer I'm a construction worker but my dad's fleet was a 756 and 826 966 a 1086 and a1466 and a Allis Chalmers Gleaner combine
Congrats on the tractor purchase and the success of BTP as well. It's definitely a good looking rig, and always awesome to be able to pick up something like that, that you always wanted. The satisfaction is un-explainable. Ha.
Congratulations on your new tractor! What a cool story too. Thank you for what you do. It’s great that people still care about the vintage machines from 30 years ago
Your life is complete now. Congratulations !
When you love an old girl she knows it...she knows shes home.
Michael Mckenna nice poem Mike
What a sight it is to see a happy man doing what he loves doing. I'm not a farmer either, sadly, but have farming in my blood sort of. I really love it and youtube channels like your makes my day a lot brighter. You're making an awsome work spreading these really splendid videos out on the internet for everyone to like. I used to go out on my bicycle as a teenager as soon as I noticed farmers around were out doing something and I could be standing there for hours. Eventually I was alllowed to ride along in the cab and later on that was the how I got to help out a little bit at least on a couple of local farms. Nowadays, when I'm over 50 years old I'm still that boy that just loves it, love learning how to farm and gets excited over stuff that the friends I had in school that grew up on farms, never really could understand. I know my grandparents had a small farm and maybe that's why I love all of it. Keep doing what your're doing because you do make a whole lot of difference for people like me. My best wishes for you and that lovely tractor.
I used to ride my bike to check out farming and then when I could drive I would scout out the area farms home bases to see what they were working on or what new iron might be at the farm. I have hundreds of pics from the 80’s and 90’s. I wish I could have had video from that time. Thank you for watching and sharing.
Omg. You just described my childhood! We both grew up in the same time period and in the same proximity to farms. We both knew the different tractors by sound and all.
I didn’t know anyone else was like that.
Congrats on the purchase of the 4786. That is a very cool machine.
Congratulations on your tractor. It's obvious you really enjoy running it an talking about it. Also congrats on 100K
Really nice tractor choice. The IH eqiument from the 70s and 80s are some of best.
It was a great time for big tractor development for sure.
You mean the best
Classic!! What a beautiful machine! Congrats on your find!! They don't make 'em like that anymore.
Thank you. It is solid machine.
Congratulations! Smiling from ear to ear. It’s never too late to start farming, i finally bought mine at 48 yrs old.
Thank you. What did you buy? I see a nice ‘76 IH in your avatar.
bigtractorpower i bought an 80 acre farm at 48 and love it. Not going to make me money but very enjoyable to have. I bought my 966 last spring. I love it.
Looks like you had an awesome day! Greetings from Australia, love the channel and all the work you do on the history of the machines.
As an ex ag contractor, I'd like to give you a tip or 3. First up, when you start the engine, give it a minute at idle to get oil pressure up & oil circulating, before you rev it up, longer time in cold conditions, got to remember hydraulic pumps are running as soon as you start. Second, gear up-revs down, make the engine work in its high torque range, not revving the 'tits' off of it, it'll thank you for it, by longer eng life, less fuel used, etc. Third, start the tractor rolling, clutch all the way up, before you engage your implement with the ground. The clutch will live a lot longer. Pull/raise the implement out of the ground before you stop. I tell you these things so you don't reduce it's life, operating errors eventually cost money. You got a good buy there, a classic, keep it nice, regular maintenance, fix issues while they are small issues, before they become big major ones, you'll save a lot of coin that way. I congratulate you on your purchase & I hope it serves you well & I'm sure you are going to enjoy every moment with it. I actually have an old IH 412B elevating scraper that I'm 'doing up', so Yeh, I like the old inter's as well.
@ Ian Bond, I am so glad you said it as I was seriously thinking the same exact thing! Quite sure we were along with many thinking the same. So nicely put along with good advice 😉 said properly 👍. Have a great day Sir....
Maybe he will do whatever the hell he wants to since it’s his and your an “ex” ag contractor
@@caveman9555 that he will cave pud boy that he will as will the rest of us....
@@caveman9555 seriously Cave Boy you need a whooping!!
And plug the block heater in before starting in cold weather. All these cold starts on TH-cam might be impressive, but they are hell on engines!
Awesome tractor, Jason! Looks like you can't stop smiling while running, I don't blame you a bit!
Thank you. 👍😁
My neighbor growing up in the 80 was a big crop farmer and had a large dairy herd too and they were die hard IH people. They had one like that, not sure but I think it was a 4586. I remember they had a big ass V-plow for it and used to hire out to the township after the really big snows. It was exciting to see in action busting thru the big drifts. They had a big wing disk and a moldboard plow also , forget how many bottoms. Also had a 5488,5088, two 1586's,1486, and a fleet of 66 and older series tractors. They were big time at least for around here in the East. Congratulations on your tractor! Brought back good memories for me.
I'm jealous now I want a new tractor lol. She is beautiful nice choice
I am glad you found your tractor. I really like the work you do, the information you share. Keep it going.
Well done Jason, the smile on your face says it all! She's a lovely tractor. it reminds me when I first got my Ford TW25, you get behind the wheel and realise all of the Hope's and dreams you had when you were a kid👍
Wow, congrats from Germany Jason!
Very nice, got to say I was surprised at just how fast the engine wound over, must have one hell of a good starter motor on that thing.
I believe u could pull that little disk with an m
Really nice tractor and vid! Thanks for sharing with us. 👍 👍
Wow with 350 horsepower your Big Tractor can run and compete right with the new Big Tractors, enjoy and be safe 🌻
It’s a fun tractor to take to the field.
Congratulations! One day I hope to own my own tractor as well. The smile on your face is priceless!
Thank you. What tractor do you hope to buy someday?
Big awesome score brother that's awesome man you deserve more than a hundred thousand subscribers you will be more than double that pretty soon and you deserve every bit of it buddy we sure do appreciate all the love and support you put into your videos always a big thumbs up them sure are some low hours that's like a brand new tractor it's amazing man I know some people like the old vintage look but that would clean up nice have a good one buddy👍👊👊👍👍👍👍😊😊
BTP, what a wonderful story. I could see you making some sort deal with a older or retiring farmer trading some tractor hours or help for rent of some ground maybe use of a disk and seeder. Just start with a small amount of land so any mistakes don’t cost to much and try growing a crop. No feeling like it when you take off a crop you grew.
That would be a great opportunity. Hopefully some day I can raise a crop on a few acres.
Thanks Jason and all the farmers great videos! Thanks .
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences. Looking forward to many more years of videos.
Talk about realizing dreams. That’s really cool, Jason. Even though you’re not a farmer, you must have some space to keep Big Red. Otherwise, I’m picturing you pulling her up to your two stall garage in the suburbs. Lol
I spent 4 years going to school in Fargo not far from the Steiger factory. Great ag economy up there.
In 1979 if you buy a in 4786 you got half off a scout2 which we bought.
Very cool. I have the IH advertisement that shows the 4786 and the Scout sales deal. If you bought a 1586 during that same time you got a free Cub Cadet.
@@bigtractorpower I don't remember which machine we purchased but we somehow got an electric Cub Cadet 95 with one of them. That was an interesting mower for '75.
I love the passion you have for classic power and thanks for putting that machine to work! IH is a great farm machine with great looks. I myself have always loved farm tractors and growing up would spend a lot of time looking through my dads John Deere parts manuals for different tractors and they had lots of pictures of the big powered tractors. I grew up in the suburbs so we were not farmers but I was always around heavy equipment because of my dads job putting parts manuals together for companies he worked for.
My two year old and I enjoy watching your videos before bed each night. What a great first tractor! Keep up the good work!
Nice tractor you sounded as you are very happy with it like wise as I am with your very interesting videos thanks
Very nice tractor! Always one of my favorites as well!
👍
Randy you would like it more if it was green.
Minitrixie yep he would
Very nice ! I remember a neighbor farmer had IH 4786 would be moving about plowing, disking and planting the fields.
👍👍
This is a great hobby that you have here.
Im trying to work my way through all your movies.
I spent most of my life driving smaller tractors on our small crop farms
Thank you for watching. It has been neat to own this 4786. I took it to a plow day this fall in this video th-cam.com/video/1YaaJ5HQ1bc/w-d-xo.html
I like all tractors. From the Ford 8n to the Big Bud 747. Which tractors did you grow up on?
Double thumbs up !!! Enjoy your channel and your commentary...
👍👍 Thank you for watching.
Very cool, Jason!!!
👍
Nice rig! Enjoy! Congrats on your purchase! Thanks for all your awesome videos.
Congrats! I'm like you. I'm not a farmer, didn't grow up on a farm or have any connection to farming, but I grew up in a home surrounded by two farms and loved watching all the equipment work the land. Case 2090, Case CX90, AGCO ALLIS 9650, Gleaner N5, as well as a host of equipment from custom guys. I still don't own any real tractors but I do own a lot of toy tractors.
Nice video. It would be cool to see more of your old pictures in a video.
Congratulations! Best episode ever.
Thank you Doug.
Its good to see the man behind the voice. Thanks for making all these great videos, we love them all round the world including here in Bedford, England. I look forward to watching many more great films in the coming year.
Great job Jason. Fabulous passion. Congratulations to you for all you have and do.
Looking good out there ! Congratulations! Only differnce between men and boys are the size and price of the toys they have. Wish you best of luck with the chanel and the lovely 4786.
Great tractor and congrats on owning one great channel thumbs up man
Its so good to see someone as enthusiastic as you are. Really great stuff.
Big tractor power, I like watching videos of farm equipment because I became interested back when I was growing up in South Georgia in the 1990s and early 2000s. Honestly I like automobiles and heavy equipment, even though I am a registered nurse and like doing that each day too. I showed some of your videos to one of my patients recently and he liked seeing it. Your channel is awesome because it's cool to see people who like filming and enthusiastic about sharing that with others. I really like the tractor and I hope you can get something like a 32 foot harrow or a 8 to 10 bottom plow to do those plowing or harrowing competitions. Inspires me to want to buy a tractor one day.
Congratulations - nice to see a dream come true
looks good,and sound like a real tractor!
Great to see you saved a IH V8 tractor as they are growing more rare to see since most have tossed the V8 for a inline repower from what guys tell me the V8 IH engine is worth big $$$ now
Love your videos. Glad you could purchase your dream tractor your smile says it all. Keep up the awesome work
First time I've ever seen BTP and I gotta say he looks just like I thought. Maybe younger than I imagined but I nailed his looks.
Anyway, this is a great video. Those of us that grew up in the Corn Belt in the 80's got to drive a lot of the tractors he's featured and probably took it for granted. I worked for several farmers and there was a big variety of colors out there that I got to use.
Thanks for sharing this cool moment, BTP
I started taking pictures because I noticed in the late 80’s tractors I grew up with were being traded on new tractors like the Magnum and I wanted to remember the big iron of the 70’s.
1984-1987 wiped out several brands and it was a big reshuffle. I like being able to film this machines as I can find them now to preserve that time period.
I get that allot. People think I am much older listening to the videos.
Cool Video and Tractor.
Thank you @realmikeless 😁 I can’t wait to see you run your Hesston stacker.
The best implement in my opinon would be an big ih plow. I allways liked the ih brouchures showing the big ih 4wds with this hughe plows🖒
A 10 bottom IH 800 plow would be a nice match.
@@bigtractorpower something you could also consider is asking some of the farms you work with for filming if they'd like your help with some work in the spring. That 4786 is plenty big enough to pull a lot of tillage implements and I imagine some of them would be more than happy to have another tractor on the go on their farm, even if only for a few days, when they're really in the thick of planting season
Thank you for sharing your story- I was just like you when I was a kid. The land around my house is farmed, and I could here the Cummins from the neighbors Case IH 5130 coming down the road. I always would watch them go by or work in the field. I am lucky to be able to do some farming now as an adult, and own two 5140's. Awesome tractor, congrats!!!
That's a nice international 👍👍👍 nice to put a face to the voice. Like yourself I'm not a farmer but was fascinated by tractors and machinery from a very young age. The local farm ran internationals as well. Keep up the good work. Watching from Scotland 🏴
Beautiful purchase BTP!
Thank you. I am looking forward to hopefully getting it out in the field this spring.
Can’t wait!
Man those cheeks must have been sore the next day don't think that smile could have got any bigger
😁👍
Wow! Congratulations on your wonderful purchase. That is so cool!!! Enjoy!
Congratulations on your purchase. I thought that I was alone. I never went as big as you and my interest was in John Deere. I have had 2 1010 John Deere tractors and my newest model is the 2640 with the 168 front end loader. I don't have much ground so like you I help my friends, family and neighbors with their gardens and other needs. Keep up your great work good friend. Bob
Hi. That is a nice line up. I made a video on the 1010 last year. The biggest farm in my home town has a 2240. When they bought it new it was the rock picking tractor along side a new 8640 on tillage, an 8630 on tillage and a new 4440 on a 12 row corn planter. Today the 2240 is on auger fury keeping up with an S680 and 9660STS combine.
Look for an ih 800 9-12bottom plow, model14 v-ripper on a 6500cart, 6500 chisel plow or a 4500 fieldcultivator these were all era implements we used on our 68 and 86 series 4x4's
PROUD OF YOU, I LIVED FARMING AS A CHILD. I GREW UP IN EASTERN WASHINGTON STATE, WHITMAN COUNTY (palouse hills). STILL HAVE APPRECIATION FOR THE LAND; MEN AND WOMEN WHO HAVE DEEP ROOTS
John Doe WHY ARE YOU YELLING?!
Love it. Ran one back in the day, also spent a lot of time on a J I CASE 2670.
Jason, this brings back many memories as a kid watching IH tractors. Growing up my dad always rented a FWD from the local IH dealership because in the 80’s the fall of the year were quite wet here in NE Wisconsin, our IH 1486 2WD was just did not get it done. One year we had rented an IH 4386, it was a beast, when I think of those years and big power IH tractors I think of Plowing! It would be nice to see your tractor IH4786 coupled to a 10 bottom IH810 Plow. That would be something to see at Plow Days, Red Power and any other farm show. I have enjoyed your videos, thank you
She's a 'beaut Clark!
Thank you.
Lol! Love those greenwalls😂
First of all I have to say congratulations, when you buy a tractor...you really, BUY A TRACTOR, then I can't help but notice that the field you're in has a lot of volunteer corn.
By the way, I'm not a farmer either but I own three tractors ,a plow, McCormick wagon, four row cultivar and a loader. Welcome to the classic tractor club!
Congratulations, Jason, on reaching as many subscribers as you have. It's nice to *finally* see you on your own videos. (I remember you from the How Farms Work Farm Day last year, and I share your penchant for staying out of the camera lens as much as possible.) It's been quite the ambitious effort you've put forward to get to where you are, and since you've been working on it as long as you have, it's necessarily a labor of love. I'm very close to you in age, circumstance, and interest, even if we're separated by a lot of geography. What you do in these videos helps to satisfy the vicarious farmer in a lot of us who would otherwise have no exposure to these machines or processes. The tractor you bought will certainly make you happy. Thanks for the effort throughout the years to show your perspective to so many of us.
First of all congratulations on your tractor purchase! Growing up I too loved seeing tractors of all makes, especially IH! Really like the deep growl of those IH V800 engines. As for equipment to pull with it I would think a 32' disk, 35-40' field cultivator, 5 shank ripper or a 13-15 shank soil saver with 4" twisted shanks would be a good match. Just remember keep the oil changed, air filter cleaned and was always told to back the rpm's back a couple hundred on those motors instead of running wide open. Looking forward to seeing more videos!! Thank you for sharing
4100 hours? It's just broken in!
Military Museum not really I don't think the life expectancy wasn't to impressive in the Ih 800 cu engine's.
Congratulations on the tract! My little boy is serious obsessed with tractors and that’s what lead me to your channel. You guys have such high quality videos with positive and enthusiastic narration. Thank you.
Thank you to you and your son for watching. I wish there was TH-cam to watch when I was a kid to see farming. Tell your son to keep up his enthusiasm.
