New John Deere Flyer

Find it out here first!!! The next Precision John Deere unit is an "R". For those of you familiar with the "R", it is known as the first JD tractor with a diesel engine. It was built for dry land farming, not row crop use, and had one of the largest two cylinder engines every built at that time.

When I look back, it's been over 20 years since Ertl has produced a 1/16th scale "R" tractor. I'll get some images posted soon to give you a better idea of our new replica.
