Once you get one tractor...My 1951 M is a neat piece of iron, but I was looking at getting something with more grunt to it. I am considering something in the '06-'56 series, like a 656, but I'm not hard over on either the series or that particular model. I need to do more earth-moving, landscaping work, and the Farmhand F11B loader on my M just isn't beefy enough for that. By the time I add live hydraulics, 3-point and power steering to my M, I would have been able to buy another toy. I kinda want to stick with a gas engine, as diesels kinda scare me a bit for doing my own maintenance. Simple is good. I'm thinking front loader and box blade or back blade will be the main setup. I've heard of people using a disc to maintain gravel driveways. So, I may try that, just to play with my toy. I think a PTO would still be useful, and I dont really want a back-hoe. Thoughts? Comments? Which were the sweet machines and which were the dogs? Your opinions matter!
