    Personally, I've always felt the older Steigers were just really tough and cool looking tractors. The Steiger green is awesome too!! 👌🏻

    Love the Steigers. To hear them under Load brings back memories of a farmer across the road from where i grew up having a 310 Steiger working ground. Love the sound of them.

    Gorgeous looking tractor. So much cooler looking than when CIH painted them red. Also great to see a Steiger plow back there.

    It's good to see Steiger Tractors Good machines grew up operating a lot of them. Just seeing Them brings back a lot of memories.

      Steiger is my favorite brand. This SM is one of the rarest Steigers. I never thought I would see one.

      This was a neat filming opportunity. I hoped I might see one someday but it was not on my wish list to find because it’s so rare I thought it would be unlikely to find one. It was cool to film this one.

    Great video Jason! Back when I was hauling feed for dairy cows. I delivered to a farm in Scipio New York that had 2 Steiger tractors and they would work them good when tilling!!!

    • @bigtractorpower
      @bigtractorpower  Před rokem +2

      New York is Steiger country. Batavia Tractor, Rochester Tractor, Auburn Tractor and Seneca Tractor sold a bunch of green 4wds. Batavia Tractor was the first Steiger dealer on the east coast in 1972. Batavia Tractor is a Monroe Tractor store today.
