Ford Tractors One Name, Two Stories
Kat, you know how Ford transformed the auto industry—but did you know two different companies once sold tractors under the “Ford” name, and only one had anything to do with Henry Ford?
In this tractor-themed episode of Info On The Go, we dig deep into one of the most surprising branding mix-ups in industrial history. You’ll learn how the Ford Tractor Company—an entirely separate entity from Ford Motor Company—briefly tried to capitalize on the Ford name with confusing (and underwhelming) results. From shady name games in Minneapolis to the creation of regulatory tractor testing in Nebraska, this is a story of ambition, controversy, and mechanical failure.
Then, we switch gears to the real revolution: Fordson. Backed by Henry Ford himself, these tractors helped mechanize agriculture, empower women during wartime, and spread across the globe—from Michigan to the Soviet Union.
From courtroom drama to plow-powered progress, discover how tractors shaped more than just fields. They changed lives, redefined labor, and in one odd twist—were even turned into tanks.
This isn’t just farming history—it’s industrial intrigue on four wheels.
