The link below "may" take you directly to the recent discussion of the differences between the 300U and the 350U, if we're lucky. Gas usage will depend upon how you've got the carb. set and what you're doing, but figure on a couple of gallons/hour when working it.

They both came with the Fast Hitch, but included an anchor point for a 3-point top link on the rock shaft, so conversion to 3-point involves only obtaining the adapter prongs for the bottom arms, and a standard 3-point toplink. About $200, but will probably be included with any tractor you buy.

Weak point on the tractor was the steering, which is tougher than usual, even if kept well lubricated. Also have the standard T/A considerations, if the tractor has one.

The 350 did have a Continental diesel available as an option, but parts are reportedly hard to come by for it, and expensive.

Around here (metro Denver area), I've seen well-maintained 300Us go for $3500 at auction, with less-good ones going for substantially less. Prices elsewhere can be considerably less, so check your market. They're a good strong tractor with most of the features available on new tractors, and a lot of them are still around, so you'll probably be able to find one if you look.
