I'm Embarrassed To Show You This Tractor!!! 

So you would be willing to pay top dollar for a tractor that doesn't hold up well? Not a good investment in my opinion. I would rather buy something that will last a lifetime 😉

Well I had four tractors on the farm two diesel CASE, One MASSEY FERGUSON diesel and a 1943 FARMALL H with a two row IH mounted picker and they all served me well for thirty years!!! And none were new when I purchased them!!! You must have the Charlie Brown; LINUS SYNDROME!!! And the basis for what I've said is IH CASE brought you a big and better model than what you purchased and YOU turned it down!?!? And a old saying comes to mind??? IT'S CUT YOUR NOSE DESPITE YOUR FACE!!!

If you want a Tractor that is going to hold up you better get rid of the red one you own now believe me I no from experience

I’m with you, I would have loved to have a tractor like that. I guess some need all the bells and whistles to do a job these days.

Hopefully all of the A series are not like this one!

Yeah dude sounds like a crybaby

I concur,pretty unfair if you ask me.The guy says he's not bashing Case-IH but bashes an obviously neglected tractor the whole video THEN recommends people to not buy it.

It actually had just been traded in before I got it. But I agree, the previous owner didn't take care of it very well!

Thanks! You survive the hurricane ok?

DeHaven Family Farm yes sir. We got about 5” of rain. Just started 3rd cutting today.

I am guessing that you take much better care of your tractors than someone took care of this one lol

Your welcome- I don't think I would buy one!

Not sure either, but it wouldn't surprise me lol

My only guess would be that the original owner of this tractor must have abused it, because it was in poor shape for the hours....

Well keep in mind that a loaner machine is one step above a rental- nobody takes care of things as well as you do your own . As a loaner it is safe to assume it was rode hard and put up wet, so it most likely lead a hard , abused life.

It sure seems like the older stuff holds up better!!

It must have sat outside for a few years.But only having 130 hours on it when it came to me, some of the other issues it has surprise me. I hate leaving stuff out in the weather! lol

I sure wouldn't buy it!

After I saw your comment, I went to look at the loaner tractor. I found serial plates for each component (engine, front axle, ROPS, etc.) But can't find a serial plate for the tractor itself. The different A's definitely seem like they could be built in different places!

Not sure if it will hold up until I get mine back. It shut down twice on the road as I was driving it home from another farm tonight.

I was really disappointed when they had LS start building those tractors too. I really liked the older compacts they had. I'm glad you got your money back, and I hope the A that I have doesn't turn out to be crap too!

@@dehavenfamilyfarm I have a really good dealer thats what saved me

AJ your statement is not correct. Farmall C and U are built in Jesi Italy in a CNH plant.

Under 100hp it’s prob Chinese, South Korean, Japanese or Indian. 80% come from India or South Korea. I have a Mahindra 5555 and it’s a BEAST.

This isn't 2010 anymore. A 5E (which is what this tractor is trying to compete with) is as nice as say a Kubota M60 series. Not at everything. They both have their areas where one is better or nicer than the other, but they're extremely competitive with one another. When I bought my 2018 5075E I wasn't initially even considering Deere because I thought the $ would be too high. I initially was looking at a MF 2607H and a Kubota M7060. Both seemed like fine machine, but I decided to stop into my local JD dealer and looked at my tractor I ended up buying. I just liked it the best and it's price was only $200 more than the Kubota and about $400 less than the MF. (And I priced both MF and Kubota from 2 separate dealerships) The MF was my favorite to look at as IMO it's a very pretty tractor, but it was just too basic to justify that price compared to the Kubota and Deere. The Deere and Kubota you could tell were very much trying to compete with one another. Things they had that the Massey was missing was both have tilt steering, 12x12 powershuttles, 540/540E PTO, flatter floors and general better ergonomics, better placed controls, their 3PH/FEL are spec'd noticeably better, etc. The Massey did come standard with 2 rear remotes, both CAT1/CAT2 provisions on the 3PH, and no regen or DEF. The MF 4700 series was new at the time, but I wish I had looked at them. They look to give you a lot of bang for the buck. Still my 5075E only regens about once every 100 hours (literally like at every 100.0 hours it will do a 15 minute regen and run fine for the next 100.0 hours to do the next regen) or so, and I even idle it a lot so it's not just self-regenning because I'm always at WOT or anything. Admittedly it wasn't until 2018 when JD stepped up their game on the open station 3 cylinder 5E's ergonomics. They are much improved over the previous years and aren't nearly as cramped. Still even a 2015+ 5E is a quality machine it's just not as nice a place to spend time on. So far my tractor has been excellent. It's got plenty of power and weight, and it hasn't caused me any issues as of yet. CNH dropped the ball with these tractors IMO. Luckily it seems like they took a huge leap forward in 2019 with their newer line of Workmaster/Farmall A models. The tractor in this video is a sub-4000 lb (without loader) machine with a budget trans, poor loader/3PH specs, very basic controls and seating layout, very small AG tires for tractors in the class they try and compete in, a small 2.2L 3 cylinder engine, etc. I grew up on blue and red tractors and I have plenty of love for both brands, but IMO when CNH went (I'll just list the Case IH models, but know I'm talking about the equivalent NH models as well) from the old Farmall 55A/65A/75A models to the 50A/60A/70A models they took a giant step backwards. The older machines weren't really any fancier, but they were a much heavier/bigger/beefier machine with larger tires. Again the 19+ Farmall A models look to have taken a giant leap forward over the 50A/60A/70A models. If I was tractor shopping in 2019 after these were released I would of definitely looked at them, but with what they were selling in 2018 I would of had to stepped up to a Farmall C to even consider a Case IH (or the equivalent NH) but that comes at a higher cost. I think they even still produce the lesser machines like are in this video though. One other thing. We need to start coming up with how we define what's made where. People have these double standards for tractors vs everything else. If it was a car/truck/plane it would be considered American made in Augusta, GA. Since the majority of it's parts are made in India (there are parts on it that say "Made in USA" though such as the computers) people claimed that it's an India tractor that's just assembled here. Is a Boeing 787 made in America or is it made in Japan, Germany, and 5-6 other nations and just assembled here? How about a Mustang, or F150, or Silverado/Sierra, or Ram? Plenty of their components are made overseas, but they ride down a U.S. assembly line. If the majority of Silverado/Sierra parts are manufactured in the U.S. but you happen to have one that was "Made in Mexico" are they really made in Mexico, or are they really an American truck that's "Assembled in Mexico"? See what I'm getting at? In this class of tractor JD is the most American ones out there. I think Mahindra assembles a lot of tractors here as well.

@@JROC734 I agree it's not 2010 and I think the quality of the 75 and up E Series is better than the 65 and lower (I was specifically looking at the 5065). Also I do not consider the Toyota Tundra and "American" truck because it's put together in Texas. Also the 5065 specifically stated on the data tag "Made in India" nothing else. IDK maybe Deere has moved the manufacturing to GA on those doesn't really matter to me. I went Kubota and haven't regretted it at all. Also I paid about 2K more for my Kubota than what that Indian Deere would have cost. I'm glad your tractor is serving you well and I hope you get many years of service from it. PS I didn't "not" purchase the Deere because it was INdian made, I didn't purchase the Deere because it was "cheap" and at that time at least it was clear they were trying to do something to eleviate the reputation of "paying for that green paint". All that learning the Deere was in fact Indian made did was enable me to go look at other brands. Although I never really considered a Mahindra.

@@bearkatljl IDK what kind of Kubota you bought, but their 5E competitors at the time should of cost more because they were nicer machines. I think Kubota forced JD's hand to step up there game on the 5E's features, and niceities. Now 5E's has things like clutch and brake boosters, nearly flat/covered floor, way more space for the operator, much larger seat, fender mounted controls, nice looking rounded fenders instead of those ugly global styled squared units, electric PTO engagement, etc. Many of these things if I'm not mistaken were features of/on your older M40 series Kubotas (the models before the current M60 series I believe) that I'm pretty sure weren't on the pre-2015 and even moreso the pre-2018, open station, 3 cylinder JD 5E tractors. (Someone correct me if I'm wrong) The 5045E-5075E are largely the same machines other than power ratings and maybe tire sizes. Your 5085E and 5100E are different and are 4 cylinder machines. Comparing a 5065E to a 5075E is like comparing a M6060 to a M7060. I agree that even though Tundra is manufactured in Texas and may have been designed by Americans employed by Toyota, it's still not an American truck like Ford/GM/Ram are. Good or bad it still very much has a Toyota feel to it, and I don't care what they try and do Toyota isn't an American company no more than Boeing is a Japanese company. If you want to buy a Tundra or Titan then okay, I don't really care either way, but don't pretend like Toyota and Nissan are more American than the big 3.

@@JROC734 no sir you are incorrect the “E” series JD in 2010 was not nicer than M6040 that I bought here’s a list of things the Kubota had that the Deere did not: tilt steering, flat operators station, shuttle shift (hydraulic as an option) more operator friendly ergonomics overall and this one I’m 100% certain but I think the JD was three cylinder vs four

Nothing wrong with a basic tractor. BUT if you build a basic tractor with cheap parts instead of quality ones, they aren't worth buying. That is how the A series is.

The funny part is LS makes many of the CASE and New Holland tractor. But for 20 to 35 % cheaper.

That because they are made by the same company

New Holland and Case IH are part of CNH but are separate companies. The compact tractors are not the same tractors with different colors. The New Holland compacts are made by LS in Korea. The Case IH Farmall compacts are made by the Fiat wing of the conglomerate.

​@@andrewgee241 not sure where you getting your info ,but your not 100% correct. My Worklmaster50 and my neighboring property has a farmall Ih 50A , it's the exact same motor. Yes the exact same motor. Here's another clue the frame looks exactvtly the same as my NH down to the flooring with the open drain-holes. Again, the tractor looks exactly the same minus a body curve hood thing. And it's not made my LS korea the motor is subsidiary of Fiat iirc a Italian company FPTR753 Here's another clue FPT industrial makes a series of off-road diesel engines for a host of tractors. Only difference are some of the loader size/capacity and finally the price and number of dealers in my area. Sorry to burst your bubble but a NH WM50 and Farmall 50A is the exact same

I will check- the tractor is out in the field now.

@@BL-jr8tk they came and took the tractor back without warning before I could check the tire size.

@@BL-jr8tk no problem. Happy Easter 🙂

It really would be disappointing!

I'm not whining- I am simply showing flaws in a tractor built by my favorite manufacturer. I would be embarrassed to have manufactured this tractor, and am trying to keep others from wasting their hard earned money on something that will not hold up well.

This one is definitely in the "not so winning" category! lol

It sure doesn't!!

Yes, it's a loaner tractor for me. But this info may be useful to someone considering purchasing one of these tractors...

No he is not they are junk

Maybe you own a good one, but this one had a lot of issues for it being so new and such low hours.

U do know that John Deere’s are made in India right 🤣🤣 ur bias towards Deere is sad

The only Deere tractors built in USA are over 140 hp
