Dylan Lowman :
Really no Allis comments here yet, so I’m stepping in like the Koolaid man. Allis D17 hands down. Specifically series 4. Reason…the D21, the D19, and the 190 all took the show. It and the D14 were the first introduced in ‘58. Then comes the “big turbocharged D19”, stole all the spotlight, then the “groundbreaking D21”, then the 190’s introduction followed suit. Nobody ever talks about the reliability and toughness of the 17. Same 4 cylinder 226 the wd45 had, but with more oompf, had PD, and could do both the big and small jobs. By the time they got to the series 4, they had factory 3pt, regular hydraulics, PS, and any other features a tractor 15 years newer would have. In fact, the D17 was such a hit when it came time for the hundred series the engineers looked at it and said “yeah that actually went pretty well”, and used the same tractor with a different hood and fenders. And while the marketing team was pushing a D21 and 190, farms were actually buying the 17 because it was way more affordable, more versatile, and half the WD parts hanging on the wall could still be used. Sales show it too. The concentration of Allis tractors in the Ky, Tn, and Mo area is dominated by D17s and 170s, statistically with a Freeman loader on them. They just never got the recognition when really, farms across the country were firing them up every day, and the crazy part is, they’re still going all over the place. Like the energizer bunny and just keep on giving

Case 930 diesel comfort king 8 speed, they didn't have the horsepower ratings like the 806 or 4020 but they sure could run right with them on tillage and had good fuel economy to run all day in the field on a tank of fuel!

Case 930 comfort king six speed, tough reliable fuel efficient and comfortable. I have owned one for over 31 years, it’s never been broken down yet. It’s also a pretty sounding engine. Unfortunately I don’t use it a lot anymore but I still won’t get rid of it

I'm going to go with the Massey Ferguson 165. I spent many of ours on one of them. now hear me out, I grew up on the muck in Western New York. we could pull a disc, we could pull a potato planter. come fall time that tractor pull a wagon with five fold bins of potatoes on it. the muffler would glow, but it never slowed up. back when Perkins built a proper engine

Farmall 806. the 1206 got all the glory but the non-turbo D361 806 lasted forever. Sipped fuel. Not the easiest shifting but will do anything a 4020 wants and more. Dependable, Basic, Strong, and simple with good fuel usage

MF 1100 : not a big Horsepower Tractor But many were sold & used on Row Crop, Dairy Farms & Western Farms. Good on Fuel & Reliability.

Allis chalmers d-17. A light, simple, reliable tractor that had decent hydraulics and would go forever. You could use it for litteraly anything and the high low hand clutch was very handy.

I think the Ford's from that era were overshadowed by the red and green tractors. my dad had a ford 5000 select o speed. it worked everyday with very few problems. it was the main tractor for a few years before dad got bigger stuff, somit plowed disked cultivated cut hay baked hay planted crops...basically a good reliable all around tractor on a 100acre farm

Allis D17 series 4 was pretty bullet proof and handled a lot of equipment very well, the HP war made it look small engine wise

Oliver 770 not many people use them anymore and they are so handy for a lot of stuff and they can do way more than they where rated for even the 880 where very good and easy to get on and off for chopper box’s feed grind square baler it is just a nice all around tractor along with the Jd 4520 they are just a power house

that_guy_who_farms :
the 4010 in my opinion was kinda underrated maybe not to the same extent as others but we never had issues with them and everyone always talks about the 4020s but never really about the 4010s or even the 4000s

Ford 8000 in our area, not really many ford dealers were in our area back then so no one really had them. I have a 9000 now and I love it, cheap reliable horsepower

Massey Ferguson 35. Great little utility, heavier built and much more capable than the fords. Grandad bought one new, still working almost daily today. A lot of them still around, but not often talked about.

The Pale Farmer :
Allis chalmers 180. Decent hp for its day and the 301 NA is pretty bullet proof. Good size chore tractor but more compact than others in its class. Still seems to be a staple on small dairy farms to this day a long with the updated version the 185, at least in my area.
