Isn't this forum great? Where else can one get so much good advice from so many people for such a cheap price? Is your land flat or hilly? Has it been cleared (like a few years ago) and growing back or is this a first time clearing job? Ford N's are handy tractors (I have one) but not the "universal-do everything" tractor that some folks think they are. Do you want one because it is a historically "neat" machine and you will keep it in realtively good shape or are you really going to work it? A beat "N" doesn't have the same retained value that the refurbished ones do. I think what a lot of these guys are trying to say is that for a good working tractor, $3000 will get you something more suitable than an "N." But if you are going to play with it, work it a little, love it and try to keep it in realtively good shape, and if your geographical conditions are favorable, go for the "N." However, a M-H 135 is an excellent tractor (as are others like it.) I use my Super "C" with fast hitch and 3 pt. conversion a lot more than I use my 2N. It just works better for me. Again, NO CHARGE for my advice! And remember, the journey is as much fun as the arrival at the destination!
