I’m an old man, grew up farming in New Mexico. lived in Washington, now live in Texas. I’ll tell you how a farm decides “what color gear” to use… Its “USUALLY” dependent on WHAT COLOR dealer is closest to the farm. Not always, but it plays a big part! The farm I worked on as a kid, ran Green Tractors, but the Hay gear was 100% New Holland. worked on a Canola farm in Western Washington for awhile, they were dead Red!. Overall, after 55 years, I’ve concluded, …. They’re all GREAT, and they ALL break!…. having parts and service nearby IS A BIG deal. Cheers
