Pre 1970 green and blue personally. Nothing wrong with orange or red today - just cant afford anything new, no matter what color

Green because there is a dealer 11 miles away and the red dealer is 60.

I like the rainbow concept of tractors. Valra Valmets came in one of 4 colors. It's a Finnish tractor company that makes tractors for AGCO/ Massey-Ferguson. Fendts are nice as well. Green with red wheels is probably my favorite. Very comfortable and ergonomic.

Here in Wisconsin I worked with farmers and their assets etc. for 37 years. Yes they were color oriented but almost totally for tractors. Their line up of machinery came in a multitude of colors and companies. The most important factor for choices was reliable and nearby dealers and service providers. There was a big awakening here when the first self-propelled choppers came into use here. The German made Class was much superior to our USA brands and that did start some upgrading in US models but also more European equipment was being utilized. Hardly any dealership near us has a large parts storage on hand. They can't afford to stock hundreds of thousands of parts. With current delivery systems many parts can be delivered within a day or two from very centralized places.

Claas and Fendt taking over the big dairy country around me. New JD dealer is trying to muscle their way back in but it will be an uphill battle as farms have grown fond of their european equipment.

Lots of good options out there anymore. As a rodeo fan, I'd take and Agco Heston as top choice but in the real world Ford and New Holland (Blue) make some tractors that give you a lot of bang for your buck.

I didn't think I'd ever like an orange tractor newer than a 1980s Allis Chalmers, but I have beat up on this little orange Kubota and it keeps o starting up. Like I said, very few bad options.

Was helping my neighbors with corn yesterday and had the opportunity to play with red, orange, white and green.
