1948 John Deere G

I have made for you (well, for me) a 1948 John Deere G. I'm a huge John Deere fan, so it was only a matter of time. This model is a little funny-looking, but it's hard to build at a small scale. I'd say its only a little less than Kerbal vehicle quality. This is the first in a series.
The John Deere G was produced from 1937 (?) to 1952. From 1942 to 1947 the G was produced as the John Deere model GM ("G Modernized"). The GM designation was created to receive government approval for a war-time price increase. After 1947, the model name was reverted back to the model G. Stock, it has 34.4 drawbar horsepower. It weighs 5300-7500 pounds.
To drive it, VTOL forward. That's it. That's all you do. Steer with yaw. VTOL center to stop. Try out cockpit view, too. Also, never press 3 while you are moving, or you will get stuck. Try to VTOL forward within 5 seconds of starting the level to avoid getting stuck, too. When you get stuck, there's no getting out of it. Sorry. Be careful off-runway to not flip over. Have fun with this fun tractor! Well, THAT was a dumb-sounding sentence... I swear English is my first and only language!

Future tractor builds: JD A, Oliver 88, Breakable Farmall M, Allison-Chalmers WD-45, JD G Large Scale, Tractor Pull Sled

    @ramjet Nowadays, yeah, I'd say Kubota is second or third. The worst, of course, is Case IH!

    @planesnthings John Deere tractors are about the best you can get if you can afford them which is hard because farmers generally speaking are not rich so the next best thing is a kubota. I would know I have a small one the hydraulics leaks some though

    @nickasaurusrex Yeah. You know what's weird, though? His UPR doesn't show up on the list of successors or on his planes list, but I can still access it whenever I want.

    What? Never,ind! The UPR is still there, it just doesn't show up when you click on the successors. It still shows this tractor as its predecessor, so it might not be some sneaky, underhanded scheme.

    @LordofLego I secretly gave a plane to TheOldColonel so I can get a chance to downvote him YOLO
