Naw. I've owned an AC. And after dad's CA and the one I had? The only orange tractor I'd have would say Kubota on it. Don't want anything to do with those gear jumpers.

OK where is the evidence to prove that? What Oliver was the alleged best according to you but got bought out in 1960? Cause they were so good? :lol: :lol: :lol: That kinda BS belongs in the field where it will do some good! Cause all it does here is stink. Companies don't sell out at the top of their game. They don't do it now and they didn't back then. Heck if they were so good how come with the Farmall/IH 560 recall scandal before the new generation for JD came out how come in 1959 Oliver didn't become the leader of the pack? AC didn't either. Your claims make about as much sense as screen hatches on a submarine. Heck from what a quick search produces Oliver in the 50's didn't produce more than 100,000 or so tractors. So of the millions of tractors sold all the rest of the tractors buyers were stupid? Or were they too smart to buy a lesser machine? You know, those other 20 plus million other buyers? You are going to have to prove to me with "take it to the bank" evidence that all those other guys were stupid.

Look, I didn't say that Oliver was a bad tractor. Just that they didn't sell well and was bought out in 1960. You can draw you own conclusions. AC had some issues the most note worthy was gear jumping. What I can't figure is that problem ran for 35 years of production and model changes. Care to explain that? You've still failed to specifically say what was bad on the Fords only claiming that they were junk. I specifically told you of a major problem AC has for 35 YEARS. So what was bad on the Fords? Don't say the brakes. While they were not the best if seals were renewed when they went bad and new shoes installed they would work just fine. On both of my 8Ns once I replaced both seals and brakes I could pivot both around on the inside tire with the brake on that side applied.
