There were a bunch of N's sold back in the day because there were a bunch of small farms that were primed and ready for CHEAP mechanical power. Had they not been the cheapest thing available in large scale, they wouldn't have sold well at all. It had NOTHING to do with which tractor was "the best". During the same era, you could buy M or H Farmalls, which would either work circles around an N Ford. No comparison. The N was marginally adaquate by 1939 standards, it's most redeming feature was the new 3-point hitch. Take that hitch off the N and Henry wouldn't have sold a dozen N's, cheap or not. It was a CHEAP tractor that had one distinct advantage over all the rest of the CHEAP tractors of the day. It sure wasn't anything spectacular. I grew up on N's and early Fergusons. I'd consider owning one as a collectors item, but give me one as my primary work tractor and I'm looking for a sinkhole to drive it into. Better than absolutely NOTHING, but only by the slightest of margins.
