It's amazing that they showed a beer and and Coke a Cola in this promotional film. because Ford doesn't like to advertise for anyone else.

Those old Ford 2000 tractors are everywhere up here in these hills. My dad was a all Oliver man but in 53 my papaw got a Ford 8N series from a new Ford tractor dealership that was 25 miles closer than Oliver and allis Chalmers dealership. By today's standards you would be amazed how much work that little Ford tractor could handle.

I ran a lot of Fords in the 50's and 60's. Good machines.

When I was growing up in the late 90s we had a 1952 flat head 4cyl 8N ford tractor 🚜 my job was to mow the property 10 acres I would mow every Saturday on that old Ford it never broke down only thing we ever did to it other than general maintenance was converted to 12 volt we not only mowed with it but we worked with it eventually my parents sold it to a neighbor and he is still using it on his farm to this day it's never been rebuilt its never had anything other than oil changes and spark plugs

My first drive! My grandfather all would buy Ford Tractors!

I have had quite a few Ford Tractors. They are the best. Recently bought two New Holland tractors. They are great, but I miss my Fords.

Love the Variety of films in your Archives. Never know what I'm going to watch next!

I am still using a 10 series Ford. It's on its way for its second engine overhaul. Used and abused by many, with a loader, run low on oil, low on coolant (not by me) it just keeps going. I think that these along with a few other 60's and 70's design tractors is where they reached the apex. Fords, Masseys and Fiats of that era remain highly sought after. I considered getting a new machine, but they cost as much as a house and they practically do the same job - maybe a little faster. In fact I just got another used 10 series, so I should be all set for another 30 years! Let's hope that there will be parts support in the future.

Ford made the best tractors in the world. They need to start making them again.

Being 65yo, I love this stuff. Anyone see the 1969 movie The Christmas Tree with William Holden? His son in the movie got a new 3000 series Ford tractor as a gift and there are several scenes of it being driven around. Seemed like a simple, sold machine.

Loved this video. Thanks for posting! Out of all my tractors, my restored 67 3000 is my favorite.

I have an old IH scout commercial somewhere, my great uncle was one of the designers for it. His brother (my grandfather) bought an 800b and International filmed a commercial of it towing an airstream through the mountains in Colorado and driving back to Jasper AL to the dealer. I still own the scout, 48,000 original miles

Let me tell you why Ford tractors were so good: They hired veteran Oliver engineers! ( just jokin’ folks), we farmed with two Minnie Moes and two Olivers. As a kid, my favorite tractors were our Oliver 77 and our MM UB Diesel for our heavier chisel plowing. Man, I miss those days!

Que gusto ver este video,,

Ford had some advantages such as considerably fast max road speed, exceeding ~45 kph by the time with models 3000, 3600, 5000 etc. But the others (MF 135-165, Fiat 480-640 in a similar power range) could not as seen around here. But it's also commonly told the steering elements and the front axle damaged faster due to the speed. And Ford tractors had unic dashboard. Ford's gearbox is a bit different than seen on the other tractors also. Ford was fun to drive but I have no idea to work with...

Ford tractors are best tractors I have a 2NAN and it drives amazing

We had two Ford 6000 with the select o matic transmission. My brother blew the engine on one of them. I really don’t remember what happened to the second one.

Ilove ford

I wish the one person(so far) who disliked this video would comment. I'm genuinely curious what issues they had with it.

What a pity most tractors are now from Kubota or Mahindra. 😕

Ford indialonch

Nice, well shot, piece of propaganda. Despite all the so called quality checks on the Ford 6X line, they still managed to produce a line of 'lemon tractors', with many inherent faults. So much so, that a lot of revisions were required, and the tractor line re introduced to market in 1968, as the 6Y range. Never did like Fords short stroke engine - very little torque - you had to rev the guts out if them to get anything close to an acceptable performance. A Perkins engine, on the other hand, had a longer crankshaft through, and a better torque figure as a result. Easier on fuel use too. Only thing I would say Ford got right on the original 6X range , was the bonnet styling, with its fluted design on the sides - much more aesthetically pleasing compared to the 6Y range styling. I guess having had to spend so much money fixing all the mechanical faults, money had to be saved elsewhere, wherever possible. A simplified, and hence cheaper to produce bonnet design, was one such example.
