If this was our lineup in 1979, we would be pretty darn proud...
We have been cleaning up tractors and as they get ready for fall they get lined up out front. Or they don't get cleaned up but lined up anyway because no one knew where else to park them. The M670 Super is on a mower somewhere so missed this picture.
We should be given Museum status. Possibly a grant for the preservation of 1970's farming techniques.

Machinery really had all we needed back in the late 70s-80s. After that it was just needless complicated add-ons and styling change.
ReplyDeleteR-12 AC, quiet cabs, and Front Wheel Assist! I would also say 150 to 180hp FWA tractors with cold AC have got to be the top of tractor evolution, especially on the silage chopper!
DeleteThe same is true of computer technology except you might need to add about 10 years to your dates.

I don't know, I think the Mac peaked with system 7 but I really loved my PowerBook 1400. Although, the PB 180 was probably my favorite.
