As an owner of an 'N', I'd have to... agree with you, implicitly. I grew up in the midwest (Southern Illinois) where row cropping was (literally) a way of life. My grandfather and 2 of my uncles farmed for a living. My grandfather has since passed on and one of my uncles has retired, but I've got a cousin (or two) that are carrying the torch... and almost everything is tricycle front end (and red, to boot, but color is merely a case of personal preference, in my opinion). I've got 10 acres to maintain, with 3 horses a couple of goats, etc. and an 'N' is sufficient for what I do. IF, however, I were to start farming corn or beans or any other 'cash crop' I (believe, anyway) would HAVE to upgrade to a larger tractor and it'd probably be a tricycle front-end (and probably red)...
