If you were to go down a fairly steep hill, you know head first, in 4-wheel drive ...could you back up the same steep hill in 4-wheel drive? I guess I am asking if it works both ways straight up and straight down? I am considering getting a 30-35 hp 4-wheel drive tractor w/front end loader, this coming spring to do more of a cleanup than my poor old 8N can handle. It does 70% of what I need it to do just fine. Doesn't have a front end loader and around here I have never been able to find one for it. An F4 tornado hit my house and 71 acres 2 years ago and didn't leave much. The house is fixed but the land is still a big mess. I have cleared off some trails but just can't physically do what I use to do. Had to get a disc removed from my back and a titanium plate in my neck (swmbo had a broken leg from me landing on her) so Tornadoes are not fun at all. I really need to upgrade to a modern tractor but will keep the '52 8N for mowing etc. it does great for that. I appreciate ya'lls opinions/expertise on this. Don't forget the question I asked in the beginning as I do have some steeper hills on the back side of the property. I know to go straight up/down for safety, also have a heavy 6' box blade for the rear to keep the tail end down on said hills...lol

I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
