I agree with both Paul and Indy. Local support and and service are critical. Each particular line within a brand has strengths and weaknesses. For example, I love the power to weight ratio of the 1210 and 1410 (and newer versions) of the Case/DB great engines and fuel efficiency, but they leak fluids like a sieve and everything is behind something else. For 5600-7710 series are what I run exclusively now due to low cost and ready supply of aftermarket parts. For me, I never use the dealers shop except for a rare trip to JD. I'd rather keep a spare tractor and then fix it in the winter. Ford fit my needs, they dont have the depth of torque with a turbo 4 cyl that any of the 6 cyls have (IH and JD) for tillage work. Just too many choices to make a blanket statement.
