Don't mistake what I am saying, I think the H is a heck of a tractor and always will. I know I can do most of the things with my H especially since it has 3 point hitch but I feel that the live PTO and Hydraulics are easier on equipment.
I thought I found one in OK shape for about $1700, thats the main reason I asked about the 504.
Thanks everyone!
Price sounds good, certainly buy it if you want it. I probably would buy it if it is as good of shape as you indicated. (as I said before one can never have too many tractors).
That said do not buy it because you think live PTO or live hydraulics is easier on equipment. That is not the case at all. Not more gentle to the tractor either. Equipment powered by either suffers the same wear and tear.
Those creature comforts make it easier on you the operator alone and they allow you do some things that dead PTO is not well suited for (but none of those extra things were on your list of uses anyhow). At minimum those nicer creature comforts of the 504 allow you to do some things without thinking at all where you may have to think just a bit otherwise to accomplish it with the h.
