does anyone have any idea how many Farmall H and m were sold compared to others makes and models?
like compared to case sc, dc, john Deere b,a, g, Olivers 70/80/77/88 ac? mm? Ford?
I think Farmall was the most popular models? or was ford during the 30/40/50s?

thanks for your help!
 
I think it goes Ford n, JD B then IH H. Others a bit behind. Members smarter then me will soon respond with the correct answer.
 
Ford produced and sold 830177 of their N series tractors not including the jubilee/NAA which would add another 128965.
John Deere sold 300000 of their A and 111340 of their B for a combined 411340.
Farmall produced 391227 H, 28784 Super H, 270140 M and 57092 Super M for a combined 747244.
Impressive numbers for all of what were once the source of great pride for our fathers and grandfathers.
 
Serial number chart on this forum would suggest 338,000 plus the number of final production year of JD B's produced (styled and un-styled combined). This number is considering that there wasn't any skips in serial number sequence in-between years (the chart on this forum doesn't list ending serial numbers, only beginning serial numbers).
If there was, in fact, skips in the serial number in-between years, I would say Richard G's number posted would be about right (just guessing).
 
Sorry you feel that way!!

May I ask why you are even on this
site?? And if you really feel that
way, do you know this site has a
(Today's Tractors) forum????
 
I'm with ya Red (this time at least ..... ha)!! Sometimes some replies make me scratch my head. For example, some YT'er will ask a question about TV reception or cable service etc. Then somebody pipes in sort of bragging that they threw their TV away 25 years ago. OK, good for them, but the original post was for people that were watching TV through whatever means they used.
 
There's a serial number chart that can be found on this vary site. I suggest you go there and look at as much of it as you desire. It doesn't really give you total number of production, but does you give you starting serial numbers for every production year of the entire run of production for the various models. It will for sure give you an idea of how many were produced even though total number is not displayed there. The biggest factor on that being, no ending serial number listed for the final year of production.

For what it's worth, I think it's a little un-fair to compare say the styled and un-styled B JD combined, against say the H farmall. Or anything like that where one model was produced over a span of more years than another model was. I think it'd be way more fair to compare a single year. Like a 1946 H farmall, 1946 B JD, and a 1946 Ford. Let the single years tell the story, and not entire production runs where the number of years vary and what models you throw into the equation likewise will vary such as including the Super H in with the regular H and so on.
 
Most posts can be argumentative, and context of replies in such doing so,
still be in line with main topic of original poster. And I probably chime in on an argumentative stand point more than I should. But I for one believe it's unfair to only weigh the pros of a topic alone, without out even considering any of the cons.

I usually just ignore material that don't interest me. And don't reply to it. I for one think OP posted an interesting subject that I have thought about before, and researched to a certain extent myself. I don't get this guy's reply though. He must of forgot where he was at online, or something.
 
First off nobody listed the Case numbers, so that might be what's driving that complaint, but anyway....

You could always check out Tractordata. com as an alternative reference to this site for production numbers.
 
I think both Farmall H sales (1939 -1952) and John Deere B (1935-1952)sales were somewhere between 250,000 and 275,000 units each, mostly in the USA. Fordson sold over 500,000 model Fs and model Ns in the USA between 1917 and 1927, more were produced in other countries through WW2 and after. The three Ford N series sold nearly a million units world wide between 1939 and 1954.

Haven't you noticed? 1948CaseVAI is one of our few ultra far right conservative extremists. Most of us are conservative but these poor extremists just seem to be always angry at everyone and everything. You just have to feel sorry for them, and excuse them.
 
Maybe I haven't read his other
postings enough to know how far right
he is.
But, .... I'm not seeing how his reply
here, has anything to do with
politics.

That is exactly it, and I see it on other forums as well. It appears that their posts on political issues keeps their cynicism so worked up that it just carries over into everything. Sad.
