It was a longer process when the development of a new tractor was carried out. It's easier now, with 3D software and computerized machines. However, it was an honor for those who built in the past to make more quality than quantity.

I've always liked the D21. I remember as a kid, probly pre teen, when this series was introduced. We had a 190XT on our farm, in fact 2 of them; one with a cab the other open station. They were nice to operate. The D21 was head and shoulders over the 190XT in terms of sheer size and horsepower. I always thought it was very handsome and wished I coulda owned one.
I collect old AC ads....one is introducing the D21 with a full page picture of the man demoing the plow in this video...titled..."big power for big farming".

4020 was a heck of a tractor too, probably one of the best JD ever produced. Interesting though that the 21 could be bought new for about $100 more than the 4020. I think PTO power was 30 hp more on the D21.

I've been around A.C. all my life and no one ever said the D-21 had rear end issues. The 190 sure did but A.C. fixed that. The D series was a very good line of tractors. The biggest issue was jumping out of gear which was caused by the operators grinding the gears.

Early D21's had weak rear ends. The 210 and 220 fixed all that was wrong with the D21 and were bullet proff tractors unlike that piece of crap Deere put out called the 5010 then 5020 then 6030. All were dogs and if turned up in horse power then they would suffer drivetrain problems. They were a poor tractor that even Deere owners admitted to back in the day when these were being used in the field. The 4020 was a fuel drink dog too but mostly reliable though my friends with a 4020 sometimes had cooling problems on hot days pulling heavy loads. The 4020 beat the heck out of any 2 cylinder.

The 5010 and 5020 were too heavy and sluggish. A D21 would run circles around them for that very reason. Only a turbo wakes up a 5010 or 5020 but then other problems arose like cooling and some drive line problems.
