Rooky seeks input

Posted by George Cosmas on September 15, 2005 at 09:36:24 from (144.189.40.222):

I will be buying a small place (<400 acres) in Colorado soon, and want to use a vintage tractor for chores, etc. I would like to do general hauling, mowing & light plowing/cultivation, but havent' been on a tractor for years.

Are vintage Fords too valuable for everyday use? Would an 8N or similar be practical for the tasks I list? (I've seen several that I can easily afford, but don't know how to use, maintain, or find implements to accomplish the tasks I listed.) Would another tractor be better suited to the tasks I list?

Any comments would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
