Even though I bleed green the Oliver or Farmall would be handier and more powerful. Compare the Ollie to a well optioned JD 60 or 70 of the same vintage. The Farmall 460 would be closer to a 630 or 730 JD gasser but I don't know all the 460's specs.

The B would be, but you are talking a much smaller tractor.

I would say the Deere for fuel effeciency hands down. Those things barely taste fuel. next would probably be the Oliver but i would weigh that against what you are going ot use the tractor for. The Oliver will be a good all around tractor and it is a real handy size. If it doesn't have hydraulics that might be a problem but it does have live PTO which the Deere doesn't. 460 would be a nice one if you need something a little bigger but it is probably gonna use more fuel. If your just looking for something to use for drawbar work and it isn't oo much then I would say the Deere is a good choice.

haha however with a last name like mine I gotta go with the OLIVER.....LOL!!!!!
