I had been contemplating getting rid of the h and replacing it with an M, but I have totally changed my mind on that. The fuel economy alone tells me to keep it around as it will be very useful for me. Fuel use raking and tedding seems to rival my little Kubota L285 diesel (which is a real fuel miser in its own right). The big difference though is the h rides smooth while you feel every bump on the Kubota (big tires trumps little tires).
I may still yet add a mighty Farmall M to my collection, but if I add a M then I think I will part with either the 1948 Case DC or the 1950 JD A. I am only a hobbyist and already have more tractors than I need for my limited acreage.
Would have liked to try the h on the square baler but the rear wheel spacing was much too wide for my short tongued NH 65 baler so the Kubota L285 ran the baler as always. I hope to get the wheels moved in narrower on the h for a next year trial on square baler.
