Y'all are gonna get a kick out of this... A co-worker is very closed minded when it comes to autos. His truck (whichever it is at the time) is the greatest. He is an extremely intelligent self taught individual, but he has this one quirk. He will even bash his past trucks as his newest is undoubtably the greatest. His one favorite is Jap truck bashing. Now I have had my 95 Nissan since new. It has held up with only minimal maintenance. He has traded Chevy trucks like underwear and has been working on them constantly. Not that there is anything wrong with them, but he is using them outside their intent. Now the tide has changed. He has determined that the optimal tractor for maintaining his property is a Kubota. I agree. He has no need of a full size machine, yet the stamped steel models die within a few years. The closest reputable dealer sells Kubota. However, I am the proud owner of a vintage Massey. Wow, talk about irony. Now, remember that I fully agree that he has made the proper decision yet I cannot stand idly by. I have to use his own dialog on him! Just modified slightly. What, you bought a Jap tractor? The same people that bombed Pearl Harbor? The same people that own an increasing share of our economy? I wouldn't own it. Be ashamed to be see on it... You will never get the service that you would out of a good US tractor. Tee-hee. The bashing is in good nature. Not sure what he thinks of this, but turnabout is fair play. I am having a blast with it though! Aaron

The TO-20 was relatively the same as the TE-20 except utilized some different casting materials and had a US-style electrical system. The TO-20 was a dead ringer for the Ford 9N and 2N models and they say that Ferguson did this on purpose when the Handshake Agreement wen
