Grew up on an H in the 50's. Mowed hiways in NE IL in early 60's using both 8N's and 641's.
Got back in charge of the original farm house with 3 acres last year. Bought an H with a loader and drawbar mower. Forgot just how miserable those 8N's were without live hydraulics.
You will hate it if you don't have live hydraulics. An override clutch handles the lack of live PTO for mowing. Drawbar mower needs LOTS of turning room. And you don't realize how tall an H (let alone an M) is until you mow around trees.
I just bought a 641 Ford with bucket and BushHog. I would have jumped all over a 300/350 utility with loader for $3000!
