We have an 8n and it gets stuck and we pull it out with the truck.8n is ok in fair weather. You going in the mud , you better go a little bigger. Always had issues with the radiator screen getting coated in tall hay fields. Went to a taller tractor to get up and out of the dust. Mowed alot of acres with a TO30 Ferguson , fighting thick hay , chaff and bumble bees. Don't need to do it again. Even with no cab the 4020 got us up and out of the dust with live PTO and responsive lift. You can go get a drink and come back out before that 8n lift goes up (well almost anyway). That's my opinion.
It isn't necessarily the size of the tool but how you use it. This is an actual incident. Farmall SMTA stuck in very wet sandy loam, stuck 8N trying to pull it out, stuck truck trying to pull either tractor out, brought in a Jube, got smart and added 100 feet of cable to higher ground, pulled the Farmall, the 8N, the truck out.
