      My grandpa had a brand new 5020 diesel and between these types of videos and those memories I think I'm catching the fever,

      @@liam3044 I'm sure that 5020 must've been a real milestone for your family when that was purchased. And lets hope they don't find a cure for the fever 🤣

    I wish I had been smart enough to talk with my grandfather about his early days with the International Harvester company, but alas, I had no idea of what I was missing.

    The Western Development Museum in North Battleford, SK. has a Moline universal 2 cylinder model as part of the collection, but not an orchard model. The engine was a boxer style, longitudinally mounted on top of the axle. If I recall, the idea was to have a gas tractor that would put the power up-front, like horses. This allowed farmers to continue to use their machinery that was adapted for horses, with a seat for the rider, and have the benefits of the gas tractor endurance and low operating cost, also that required no husbandry skill. Cool machines!

    I really think these universal tractors could be built today and be used successfully by modernizing yet be one hell of a pouller also where I live is potato country so I'd like to see one of them hooked up to a potato harvester

    I bet most of those machines could do just as much, if not more, than modern stuff.

    Did he say cement wheels? Just think how easily we could of ended up with cement wheels and rubber roads.
