You should include an explanation of how the Ford N tractors were far and away the most important tractors of all time in the whole world for primarily three reasons. First, is the three point hitch that you can research all about, but any way it revolutionized tractors. Second, is that it was built on an assembly line which resulted in such a low cost of production that the price was eventually reduced to under $800.00. This is less than half of what Ford wannabees were selling for. They were being built at the time of a great expansion in farming as tens of thousands of GIs came home from WWII and went out to start their own farms. They sold so well that for two years they were close to outselling all of the other makes combined! The third reason is that because of the 8N's hydraulics, three point hitch, and compact size, far more of them are still working than other makes from the same time period. They are frequently criticized for their drawbacks compared to tractors that are ten years newer, but this is only because they are still out there working, while most tractors of other brands of that vintage have long ago retired. Now you can research all this and flesh it out and really impress your teacher.
