Grandpa looked at/ tried other brands before settling on the M. The 9N in 1941 was pitched to him as filling all his needs. But he quickly realized the 9N's strengths were in tillage and mowing but not in pulling heavy manure spreaders, corn pickers through mud, and not having enough power for a pull type combine. In the end he was put off about the 9N because the salesman would not readily address his concerns about it.
