===White Tractors=== Rollin became more interested in agricultural tractors, and developed designs for tractors derived from standard White truck parts. When the White Company was not interested in producing tractors, Rollin set out to develop his own designs and, with brother Clarence, eventually founded [[Cleveland Motor Plow]], which later became [[Cletrac tractor]]. Cletrac was later purchased by [[Oliver Farm Equipment Company|Oliver Tractor Co]], which in of itself was bought by White in 1960. the early 1920s, Rollin briefly produced the [[Rollin Motors|Rollin]] car to diversify the tractor company, but found it could not compete in cost versus price against much larger manufacturers. White was successful with their heavy machines, which saw service around the world during [[World War I]]. White remained in the truck industry for decades. In 1979 White was having financial struggles and had to sell its tractor division, [[White Farm Equipment]] to a Texas firm called TIC. After the purchase White Farm Equipment would become a separate company from the original White despite the same name.
