davpal said: (quoted from post at 07:46:07 08/08/09) He said he wants to clear 2 acres not 200. I could do what he just listed on here in one weekend with a chainsaw and a lawn tractor! You recommend a Farmall Cub over a Ford 9n to do anything? How much work can a guy get done with a farmall cub with no 3 point hitch? They are pretty much useless. I maintain over 100 acres of wetlands and farmland with a Ford 9n and that includes about 3 miles of trails and mowing the roadsides along the farms with a 5 ft brushog and cutting wood in the woods with it. 2 acres I could do by hand. It's really not the tractor as much as the guy that's running it. I see this response on here about once a week that you can't get anything done with a 9n ford. Any tough old farmer could probably clear 2 acres with a hand saw and a team of horses in a couple days. Now we need a dozer and a $30,000 dollar Kubota to "farm" 2 acres.


That's what I was wondering myself. Isn't the Ford 9N one of the most versatile little tractors when it comes to the old ones? We have a 9N with a forklift attachment and man, it really comes in handy. My Grandfather used to disc and make furrows on a our ranch, ( approximately 6 acres) and two other plots totaling 12 acres with that 9N. Sure, later on we went Massey Ferguson, but that little 9N served him well during the early years of our operation.
