Our first tractor is our JD790 good utility tractor very user friendly to any body. The second is my 1952 Minneapolis moline(MM) BF(gas). The BF is a good work horse but after along time of driving both I noticed something, the BF has the ability to lug down and fight its way out. Most of the newer tractors DON'T HAVE THAT CAPABILITY!!! Plus the BF is American made. Our 3rd is my Oliver 1900 90HP tractor built in 1960(American made) I'm trying to get it running again and getting the starter rebuilt soon. If you find that the Case won't do the job don't look at the ford N series, look at the others out there. IH,JD,MM,Case,Oliver,Ford(non N series)Allis-Chalmers and Massey Ferguson made good small-medium tractors, but if you are going to have cows you'll need something that can move a 1,200+ round bale, 45+ HP might be need. The older tractors are cheaper and generally a little more HP than rated all most the complete opposite of the new ones. The choice is up to you. Have fun.
