A 4020 is way too much tractor for 10 acres. They aren't exactly easy on fuel either. As far as being the best tractor built, they are good but I don't think the best. An MF 35 is the most copied tractor in the world. There must be a reason for this. I have a 135 which is an improved version of the 35. It replaced an 8N because we needed a live PTO for cutting grass. You need a 3 pt. hitch and no other tractor compares to the Ferguson system. Power steering is only needed if you plan to install a loader. Manual steering is easy to turn and less prone to problems. All 135's are good but if you can find a Perkins diesel, they are the best. Extremely easy on fuel and easy to start. Second choice would be a Perkins gas because according to owners they are cheaper to repair then Continentals. You will probably have to spend a little more than $3000 but you are far better off. You wouldn't want to buy a tractor only to have to replace it for what you really need. MF's are very straight forward tractors with simple controls and good reliability. A 135 would work excellent for 10 acres. A good 35 would be worth looking at as well. You could move up to a 165 as sometimes they are around the same price. MF 50's and 150's are almost the same as 35's and 135's except for the front axle. Hope this helps. Dave

Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he reached his early sixties
