I have had old Fords in the past and since sold all. I am now trying to get back into a few old tractors. My gut tells me to stick with the Fords (8N, 600s) because I had such good luck with them. But a few old JDs have caught me eye latley. Mainly 420s and 430s. I know you can find these with 5 speeds and live PTO which the Fords don't have. BUT other than that, are these good tractors to own, do they hold up as well as the reliable Fords? I have seen other say these models of JDs (Dubuque) are not very good. I am looking mainly for a toy to use for fun right now. But maybe in the future do a little brush hogging. I COULD always just buy a bush hog for the BX2200 and keep the old tractor as a toy only. It seems the JDs may cost a little more. What would you do???
