It's been said "Just because you can doesn't mean you should."

It's also been said "Four wheel drive just gets you in farther before you get stuck."

In my 15 odd years of driving tractor, I have never seen our 4020 stuck. Our 1086 MFWD and 4640 has been stuck numerous times. It's mostly because we send them in to jobs where they're more likely to get stuck. In the second week of ownership, I buried the 4840 to its axles. Dad wanted manure tankered. I told him I'd get stuck. He told me to do it anyway...that's another story

Here's another angle - if you do manage to get the 7520 stuck, ain't nobody but another mammoth 4wd or a wrecker gonna be able to pull you out. They aren't cheap. Buddy's neighbors bought a massive Ford tractor. They were showing to off, bragging how they'd never get stuck again. Next week, they got stuck in the middle of a peat field. NO ONE in the neighborhood had anything near big enough to pull them out. They called the wrecker and paid the man a grand.

In the end it's your money.

In July of 1998 I was talking to fellow Allis Chalmers collector Mike Schilling about the annual "Gathering of The Orange" AC show coming up in August of 1999. He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana. ... [Read Article]
