John Deere 8225R
This is a tractor that I've spent most of my hours in. Between this and a newer 8310R, but you can't beat a JD powershift. Pretty much all of our tractors on the farm are powershifts, it's what I've grown up driving. The two main things this tractor does are haul hay wagons as shown, and haul manure in the winter. It's a fantastic tractor
Edit: This tractor is ingame as a part of the 8R 09-11 series by JHHG (PC only), however it sadly doesn't have those tires, only row crops. I love having those big tires hauling down the road
Nice setup
Myself it'd have to be a John Deere 6215R with a front linkage

There’s a mod pack on mod hub of JD 6R, think it’s the smaller frame version only goes upto 6215R, but you can put a front linkage and Michelin’s on; only thing stopping Me using it is no seat suspension cam, just adds more to the immersion for me

Learned on a 3020
Started field work on 7800 MFWD
Logged more hours on a 8200 MFWD than anything else combined.
8360R with ILS and IVT is hard to beat pulling a grain cart.
Still would love to drive a 4960 MFWD
(Sorry for no pictures....gotta rush the kids out for school and drive to work)

For the record not a farmer just a really big fan lol. In game and in real life I was always partial to the American iron more so the red ones. The green Johnny poppers what I always thought of for John Deere. But growing up going to the tractor pulls this white and Orange case tractors always caught my eye. The openings on the front end and the way the hoods were shaped always made me think of a hot rod crossed with a farm tractor

The first thing I though of when you mentioned Case was a dude named Lucas Criswell that pulls with Case tractors out in the central part of the state. I’m just full of useless information that will get me no where in life.

It's better to have more information that you don't need than not know anything. I saw more White and Oliver than I did ji case. Maybe they stood out because they were more rare

I have 3 favorites:
If I had to pick just one it would be the John Deere 60, mainly because this was my Grandfather's big tractor when I was a kid. And there is something in the sound of a two cylinder Deere that just soothes my soul.
The Deere 4020 because it is one of the most historically significant tractors.
And the Deere 4440 (Thanks Black Sheep modding!)

Either the 70 or 90 series Case. We had both a 970 for smaller work and a 2390 on our farm growing up. Spent countless hours in both. Man do I miss those days!

I bleed green and yellow, not a farmer but my dad sold them. I also grew up with friends on many farms and got to drive a lot of stuff as a kid. Deere 8440 or 8850 would be my dream in game tractor. Im just not a fan of the tracks.
A very close 2nd and 3rd from anyone else would be a Gleaner Combine, and a Steiger Tiger.

I know, dont torture me, lol! That is why I said 8440 and not 8640--I was going for most likely to happen. 8630 or 7520 also would be sweet.
I'm on ps4 unfortunately. My brother got a PC just to play FS and there are so many sweet Iowa maps I'll never see....

I always loved our IH 1066 because that is what I started on when I was 8-10. Would drive square baling while the others worked the wagon. BUT.... I would have to say my favorite was our IH Hydro 70 (Gas) that did all our loader work. Ours had bigger tires on the rear than spec and she was pretty wound out... I always loved passing the Police Department radar boards just to see the number over 30 mph... Very fast for a US tractor made in that Era.
