Oliver's were always superior to the John Deere tractors it took JD a while to catch up ,I remember those smooth running 88s walking away with 4 bottom in hard ground . And in the late 60s Oliver was in the heavy equipment market with some tough industrial power .To bad white mismanaged the oliver team . White did make some tough Tractors though .
White tractor was the best tractor ever if you ever sit in the seat of one and farmed with it you would agree most awesome tractor ever built its a shame that they cared more about building trk than a good farm tractor
If alll said was true......... You can make the best equip , but if you can't sell it in numbers you go belly up.....Farmers want something they can swear by not swear at.....
I like that the White American could be ordered in different colors. They should have went ahead and called the green on an Oliver, the yellow a Minnie Mo and the red one a Cockshutt. BTW was Cockshutt actually anyone's favorite tractor? I could see Canadians likening it I guess.
Bogus comparison. Check Tractordata,com for fuel use and drawbar pull. A 4755 in B4 or 8th gear is 5.3 MPH. Why did they not pull it that fast behind the Deere with over 1800lbs of pull more on the drawbar than the White? I know, so it would burn more fuel.
Love these old videos! Really liked the part when the test said they could do 500 acres in 8 days. Forgot about the 4 day’s downtime. Lol!!!
Love to see these videos when these tractors came out.
Miss the days when there was diversity in AG manufacturers, White, AC, Ford, IH, JD. Rain days we would tool around and sit in all of the new tractors
Big oil and the powers that be didn't want us to have a choice!
Hopefully the days of the huge monopolies are coming to an end. Lack of competition breeds corruption.
Yeah me too
The different colored white tractors are really throwing me off!
New idea made some great corn pickers
These tractors were pretty good, with the cummins engines, the older ones gave them a bad wrap.
Bill Collector the older ones weren’t terrible. The 2-150 and 4-150 were but everything else seemed ok

thegreenerthemeaner 4755 had power shift only. Thanks for the try bud
Uh… LOL.
A green White. How odd. But I guess if they wanted to keep Oliver, MM, and Cockshut customers, that was one way that *might* work.
