Well, one thing you haven't said is what your overall plan is. Is this going to be a "gentleman's farm", a hobby, or are you looking to turn a little money on this? Of all the various tractors listed, size and ease of use translate into time. It all comes down to time. Heck, the SM will farm your 70 ac with no problems. However, it will do it in twice the time of some of the 66 series or 88 series tractors listed. (and it won't do it as comfortably either). That said, the SM will do it, and the H will do it. Our father's and grandfather's did it, so can you.
While I know little to nothing about the total capabilities past the letter series tractor's, I do know that if this is retirement hobby for you, time is something you might have. If this is a "i have 70 ac tillable, and want to turn a little cash from it" then the newer and larger tractors are the way to go. You will have to look at the buy back ROI on your initial investment to aquire the tilliage tools.....tractor and all. If you have time and modest cash flow, go with what you have. If you have little time and lots of cash, buy the newer, larger equipment.
It all boils down to time and available investment cash my friend. Only you can answer how much of that you have.

If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
