Lots of folks really liked the Oliver tractors
I think aseticaly they are number one
Lots of still do like olivers there are oliver collectors everywhere
I think manufactures need to go back to the basics. The older I get the more I like older equipment. Reliability is king.
Great video thank you.
You all probably dont care but does someone know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow forgot the password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me!
@Jermaine Brixton instablaster ;)
@Andres Case I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm trying it out atm.
I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Andres Case It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account !
@Jermaine Brixton happy to help =)
Praise be! An actual muffler! You can hear yourself think and actually hear....... anything besides the engine. Great video, rare tractor to see in action anymore!
Bonus Mighty Mo! You've outdone yourself on this one!
Hear 👂 the true diesel with a muffler I soo agree.... strait pipes are for kids
Man Oliver was ahead of its time. Beautiful tractor.
I'm an IH man, but love to see theae old machines run regardless of brand.
Hated those John Deere disks and we are a Deere family! We called it the ridge master! So happy when that first IH disk came home.
You got that right. We had a John Deere tech man come out and he adjusted that disc every which way he could and it wouldn’t level. He finally gave up. About the only thing you could say good about it was it would cut down till it hit the spools. Now if you wanted to make a water way just a make couple of passes on top of each other and you would have one. It would ruin a field if you didn’t split the middles on the second pass. But it would cut!!!😂
Dad called ours the potato ridger.
I think this is one of the coolest tractors I've ever seen
Now THAT is a bad ass tractor! CAT Power!
That particular cat motor isn’t the greatest. 3406 now there’s a motor.
Luke you’ve really got your tractors down
We ran a Oliver 2255 (3150) with 38's filled with fluid to the max weight pulling a 5 bottom Oliver plow in Blue Earth County South Central MN. This video brought back that Cat purr I heard for many years. Thank You!
Very cool.
The 2255 is one of the all-time great muscle tractors!
My grandpa has a 1600 Oliver. Everyone loves that tractor
My friend has a 1600 lp
I learned to drive and do dirt with on our 1963 880 with New Idea loader. I spent many hours plowing snow with it. I love snow days just for that! We them bought an 1800 A series that was "my" tractor. I mowed ditches and hauled wagons with it. I loved that my brother and friend could ride on the fenders. It ran so smooth and idled crazy low n quiet. I now own numerous Olivers! We still have that 880
I've posted how much I like Oliver & Moline tractors that this video seems like a personal gift Video .
That is in immaculate condition for the age
And I will bet you cash money right now that it doesn’t nickel and dime him; he’s probably not putting extra sweat equity into it.
Nice to see the old iron still working the fields.Thanks for the video
That thing is a beast. That disk doesn't seem like it's even behind it.
He could probably use a few more feet since its dualed and weighted
Got to love a good 3150! That’s a really straight 2255
Awesome video. I really liked the drone shots.
Hey Chris I figured you probably had to have watched this one lol! That's one nice tractor.
Yes it is. I thought about doing some fall discing with mine, but looks like I need a water pump.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris Yes that would be cool hopefully you'll be able to get it fixed. There's always next year! Have a great Thanksgiving Chris.
Thanks, Stephen. I hope you guys have a great one as well!
I have a 1655 that was about to be scrapped that I picked up and am working on restoring to like new condition. Runs and rides so smooth. I honestly like running it better than my newer equipment.
Look at that thing! Would love to see more of that green!
More Oliver videos are on the way.
Olivers are nice old tractors and the sound of their motors are always fantastic. There was one pulling hay rides at the campground last year. That thing sounded awesome pulling a wagon load of people up the steep hill.
Does it have auto-steer? Yes, the windshield. I grew up on a cockshutt....love this. I miss you Dad.
Now you have me wondering if anyone has ever installed auto steer on one😂 i know it could be done
That 2255 has had a lot of love, and it really shows! Nice machine making a guy money while looking good doing it.
That’s great to see the tractor still working away
Makes me want to throw the duals on my 1755 and make some smoke!😉. Thanks for featuring Oliver.
We always had allis and ihc. Neighbor had one of these, with 3208. Amazing how loud and distinctive that cat engine was.
Depending on your area, you didn’t have many Oliver dealerships. Where we farmed International Harvester and John Deere were all you ran in the field. Irregardless, I wish farming and big iron still looked like this today. I’d rather see that guy disking running corner to corner across that field. I could disk all day, a sack lunch and thermos of coffee in the cab, with this equipment from the 70’s.
Always kinda liked Oliver tractors. They were very popular around here
Lot of pride in the owners there. Great video happy Thanksgiving 😊👍👍
Nice Video. Really like the Oliver’s.👍
Those stalks have had a couple weeks to dry after harvest, helps the disc do a much better job.
Great video BTP, no goofy music and we can hear the tractor even with the drone recording.
Thank you fir watching. The best music is the CAT V8 prrrr
Moliver cracked me up! Somehow I've never heard of that. Those tractors look like they'll run forever if you just let them. Cheers :)
The 2255 is definitely my dream tractor. I need a 2255 and a 1555 to complete my collection of 55 series Olivers! My neighbor has a MFWD 2255 and it definitely feels like a strong horse when you’re driving it. Feel the thunder!!! Haha
i worked for a guy that only bought olivers we had a1600 that i rad all the time love that tractor road smooth.
I loved watching this video. Especially since I own and use to this day my 2255.
I ran one of these on my friend’s family farm for a few summers. Thanks for sharing this footage, love to see these working!!!
Thank you for watching. The 2255 sure is a cool tractor.
Excellent vid BTP!! I really like Oliver tractors & a Cat powered 2255 is at the top f the list. Cheers
I grew up running an Oliver 2255, farming the river bottoms along the Wabash river in Southern Indiana for a neighbor who owned 2 of these tractors with cabs..l never realized there were that few produced until l watched this video... It brings back fond memories👍
Very cool to run two 2255s on the same farm. What implements did they run?
That's so cool man, we farm near Lawrenceville, used to have a 5020, I'd call it the john deere equivalent to the 2255
We ran a 1550 and 1655 Oliver. Mostly reliable. Could be hard to start in the cold northern WI winters but otherwise good iron.
That's a sweet ride! I grew up on a 1750 gas, a 1950 screaming Jimmy , and a 1950T.
Very cool. Good Olivers. I would like to own a 1755 some day.
That was awesome. Buddy of mine has a ton of Oliver tractors. That's 1 of them
Great looking and sounding oliver!! Love hearing those kitty cats put in work!!!
😁👍👍
That's the best tractor Oliver ever made
Great drone footage!
I had a 1750 Oliver with a 4 bottom plow and disk both from Oliver Loved it
Love the older tractors, great video!
👍👍
Great Catch Jason!
Nice ride! Good to see out there working
We had three 1850 Oliver tractors. Thay pulled like no others.
I grew up running Oliver tractors. My grandfathers and all my uncles on both side of my family farmed with Olivers. I present have a 550, a 770 that has been in the family since new in 1958, and an 1850 diesel. I also have a 1946 Ford 2N that was my maternal grandfather's. I sold it once but it got homesick and came back. Olivers are the best! Too bad they couldn't really compete with the red brand and the other green machines!
Oliver built good tractors and machinery. Where I grew up Oliver was the number one brand into the 1960’s. I grew up seeing Oliver tractors, tillage, planters, hay equipment and combined. Unfortunately Oliver never grew the dealer network IH and Deere had. By the 1970’s the Oliver factories were outdated and were not producing the same quality.
That's a good looking tractor😉👍 It is an old green classic👍😁
Nice!
Cool video! Happy Thanksgiving!
back in the day where men were men and tractors were tractors!
Big Iron days.
Have pulled a 220 center fold disk with a 4430 with 18.4x38 Firestone with duals and a Quad range transmission , and also chisel plow. New a John Deere tech. and he told me how to put a little more fuel to it and it pulled either one pretty good ! But them was the days .
Great time in farming. 😁👍👍
We use a 2255 for hauling grain from the field to farm 👍
I grew up on the Florida panhandle we had several Olivers including 2 2255z and 1655 loved the v8 in the big horse it was needed for the bottom plowing the red clay dirt love the shift on the go Trans if white would have kept using cat engines they would still be in business because they had a great Line of tractors
That’s a nice lookin 2255
👍👍
I love my 1550 Oliver really smooth runner
I run a 1755 with duals for seeding. Also pulls the square baler. Traded my 1855 and 1750 for new NH 4WD’s with heat and AC. Love the comfort but miss the roar of my Meadow Green fleet. Appreciate videos like this one.
Very cool. I would like to own a 1755 some day. What type of seeder do you pull with yours?
We have a 1970’s Melroe (102 model?) press drill 12 foot. It’s one half of a larger unit a buddy sold to me. Nobody around here has fields large enough for 24 foot tools. We raise Angus beef in northern Minnesota and put in 20 acres of oats or barley every year for feed. I grew up in SE MN farming with mostly Oliver’s.
Love this Video. Love the 2255.
Thank you for watching.
Farmed with a
Oliver 77 Rowcrop - gas
1800 Oliver wide front - diesel
1900 Oliver with Detroit - diesel
Oliver HG 68 crawler
7700 John Deere Combine
1466 IH with cab
We used alittle bit of everything on the farm....!!!
I don’t farm but love watching these videos. It’s cool to see an old machine still in use and getting it done as oppose to someone spending the sum of a house on a new machine.
Haha must suck that you don't farm
Jordan Nelson I really would love to at least experience what all goes into farming
Awesome!👍
My grandpa had an Oliver Super 55, Oliver 77, Oliver 770, Farmall H and Farmall Cultivator A.
The Super 55 was the first tractor I ever drove at the ripe old age of 9.
Great Oliver tractors.
Love the Meadow Green and Clover White....!!!!
😁👍
We had a 2255 with cab and 4 wheel drive from 1974 till 1979. Great tractor!
That is the deluxe package. Very cool. What replaced the 2255?
A John Deere dealer convinced dad that a 4440 with their hydraulic front wheel assist could replace the 2255. Being a Deere, the cab was really nice[the Oliver didn't have air conditioning, making the cab very uncomfortable in the summer], the Powershift was much nicer than the Oliver setup, but when it came time to work, the 4440 failed miserably. Great 466 engine, great transmission, but hydraulic assist couldn't match 4-wheel drive. After only one season, we tried out a few 4-wheel drive's, Duetz DX160, White 2-135 and 2-155. The Duetz had been set-up at the dealer to 185 hp, and it just outshone the Whites. In retrospect, I wish we'd gone with 2-155, but we went with the Duetz. Amazing tractor in some respects, it was behind American tractors in other areas. Still amazed at 4 gph fuel consumption chopping corn silage in the rolling foothills of south central NY! Never saw anything close to that.
Nice drone camera work!
I’ll have to have you come check out our 2270 some day....lol
Nice!!
Beautiful is all I can think of now, very nice
A real man tractor
She's a beauty!
Our first Oliver, was an 1800, I don't remember the year, but from then until 2005, when I had an auction and sold out, they were my tractor of choice.
Oliver made great tractors. 👍👍
@@bigtractorpower Oliver invented many ideas the revolutionized the tractor industry!
I like that.
Fun to to see it's Moline cousin as well.
Isn't cockshutt more close related to Oliver than minneapolis moline?
@@Jordannelson23 , I think Cockshutt was a Canadian company.
My father owned a 2255 with the CAT 3208. It was a great tractor. My uncle owned the Oliver G1355 which was the MM 1355G just painted Oliver green and white.
Very cool. The G1355 in green is extra rare.
@@bigtractorpower Yes it is. My father jokingly called it an orphan.
Really amazing, brother.
Sold a 4x4 2255 to someone in the south central Wisconsin area a few years ago
Hope nobody gets mad.....but they were a pain in the rear getting sheet metal off!!!! Took a few guys to do it right so you didn't scratch the paint.
We had a 2150 it was a beast .
I’ve never ran one but I’m a sucker for the sound of a 478 Hercules
Nice👍Chris Losey would like this one
We used to have a 2150 with the fender tanks it always seemed like it took forever to fill it up and it always had transmission issues but I think that was due to the prior owner
thanks for this all some video, nice looking tractors
Thank you for watching this was a great find to feature.
Very similar look to my Allis 2500 20' center fold disk. My disk does a real nice job.
I have a 2255 open station, also have had four 1850s and a 1655. We still have the 1968 1850 and the 2255
Happy Thanksgiving
The best green 😊
😁👍
Oliver’s rule. So cool.
On our farm, we had a 1900 with front axle assist and a 2155 that was yellow under the green paint. You could see the MM under the Oliver emblem on the steering wheel. The supercharger whine went right through the hearing protection.
Both of those are rare and neat tractors. Any idea where they wound up?
Dad sold them after he retired and sold most of the ground. I had moved away and wasn't around when it happened. The only big tractor we still have is a Minneapolis Moline Vista G1000 my brother uses to mow the barn lots.
Sometime back your video feature didnt relate to the cover photos but I haven't forgotten the anomaly.
An articulated Blue (Ford) with 5 wheels on each corner.
My question then went unanswered, so, thought it'd be worth asking again. Where was that n how come we never got to see it in motion. I thought with that much pneumatic rubber it might float?
Always enjoy your presentations, and appreciate your efforts. You must really enjoy doing it.
Thanks ever so much.
That couldn’t have been this channel. That sound like a photoshop from some European or Turkish channel that has a sketchy online Merch store attached and plays crappy electronic music through the video
We have 2255 my favorite tractor to run
I used to run an 1855 Oliver. It always felt like it had way more power than it was rated at.
😁👍👍. The 55 series were solid tractors.
We use Oliver's and Whites everyday on are dairy farm
Best tractor Oliver ever made
👍👍
I like the 50 & 55 series
I wish i could have ran a 2255 they were a huge tractor i really liked that tractor
The 2255 is a cool tractor.
When I was a kid my dad had a 2255, a 2-105 white, and a 1655 Oliver. I learned to plow on these. We had a good dealer in our area up till mid 80s. Most big tractors were either whites/Oliver, and Massey Ferguson. John Deere really took hold, after mid eighties. Im in peanut country in Jackson county, Fl..border SW Ga, and SE Alabama.. I miss em. Fine tractors. I just dont know what happened to em. Shame
Very cool to hear about your region. Is it mostly John Deere today?
@@bigtractorpower , yea, pretty much.
One of the stupidest moves in corporate America was to drop Oliver name in favor of White brand name. OLIVER was well established in the farming industry. Second was when Deutz tried to re-brand to Deutz-Allis they should have left Allis-Chalmers name alone and maybe just put the KHD emblem on the grill.
One of my favorite tractor put quite a few hrs on it (FWA)
👍👍
My cousin has a red White 2255 we got from Canada.
