Just a procedural question: Is there a reason for needing a "Modern Tractor"? A decent small antique tractor should do anything you need done on a small acreage, for as long as you're going to need it done, and at a whale of a lot less cost than the least expensive new machine. Even after one throws in the cost of adding a versatile hydraulic system, a machine like your Super A, a similar sized JD, Ford, Case or Allis Chalmers seems the cost effective solution. It's the way I went. I had a little trouble finding implements but the cost factor drove me away from new or even used new style tractors for our three acres. Of course, if the neighborhood where you are looking has rules against antique tractors you have to weigh the priorities. Fred
