New/Used to Now

[deere4320]

Hi All,
This is just a thread to show the before (the time when you got your tractor, whether it was new or used) and after of your tractor (when you put it to work). Here's mine...

Deere4320,

Not to be insultive, but your thread/post doesn't compute here. Could be just slow gray matter between the ears this morning, but could you reword so that I can understand the intent of your thread?

Thanks,

He means pics of the tractor before you put hours on it ("New") vs what it looks like now, after you've worked with it for a while ("Used").

Gee, gonna have to get back to you in a few months. Mine still looks pretty much the same since I haven't run into anything yet.

Before is much larger than after ??

Did you wash it in hot water?

My tractors still look and work like they did when they were new. And I do my best to keep them that way.
First photo is my 1978 JD 850. This is how it looks at 32 years old, 1800 + hours.
Next is my 2001 Kioti DK 35. This is how it still looks at 9 years old with 1480 + hours.

No. Just soap/water.
I took these pictures just after the tractors were pressure washed.
The pressure washer soap I use works great. Makes the entire machine look like it was hand washed.
I pressure wash the motors too. And they look just as clean.

i'll bet they are maintained as well as they look.

Yep nothing runs like a Yanmar and a John Deere, when it"s being chased by a Kubota. LOL I couldn"t resist, the devil made me do it. zman:laughing:

I had a friend that used to say;

"Nothing runs like a Deere... or smells like a John"

His family had well over a dozen working JD machines, so I think he knew a little about them but still liked to poke fun.

My yanmar may not be that fast, but yanmar put to much torque into those tires to get it to go any faster. :laughing::laughing:
