Who has the most hrs .

Talking with my grandfather tonight on the phone he asked how the tractor runs and how many hrs on. I told him just hit 100 hrs need to change the oil again. Gramp said still not broken in yet. Not yet i said. A good tractor he said like the two we had on the farm the international had 8,750 hrs and the MF had 6,000 the ford long tractor he said got 600 hrs on it before the engine seized but was replace for free. That got me thinking how many hrs can a kioti make it to?

You talking tractors or people?

A buddy of mine has a Ford 7710 that has over 5000 hrs on it. It's been a good tractor, but he's "putting it out to pasture." In the past year, it has been in the shop more than home. (rebuilt engine, rebuilt front axle, A/C leaking down, etc) Last month, he bought a JD 5083E to replace it.
BTW, he has another 7710 that has about 4000 hrs on it. He's going to keep that one.

My oldest tractor, the Ford 2600, is getting close to 2000 hrs. The other two have less than 500.

My Massey 135 has 5100 hours on it and runs like a sewing machine.

My 1020 has over 4600hours. Never had any engine work done to it other than oil changes and other fluids. 5000 hours on a tractor is like 175000 kms on a truck.

Wow, some serious hour tractors in the last couple posts. I don't think there's a chance the 50 and under hp tractors are going to come close to this. I bought my first tractor, JD 955, with 1800hrs. Kept it one year and sold it with 1900hrs, I just couldn't stand how much time I was putting into fixing it. I'd like to think my DK45 will go 2000+ before the first sign of trouble, but realistically, I'll take 200.
