Both are good tractors! The N is significantly handier and maneuverable than the SC, and as stated neither will have LPTO. The models that people mentioned are excellent also, but will cost you a tad more in most cases. It sounds to me like those are the two that you have found that fit your budget and for the chores you mentioned I would go with the N; in most instances much easier to work on, parts easier to find, and 3 pt hitch (unless it"s a late SC with Eagle Hitch this is a BIG advantage. Other than holding back heavier loads on hills, or getting into heavier things like baling with a wagon attached, the N will do most things the SC will and do them a little handier (good chance the SC has a hand clutch too). As far as tilling, an N with properly adjusted 1 or 2 bottom 3pt plow will plow like crazy all day, add in a 3pt disc and 3pt drag and you"re in business! With an Over Running Clutch for saftey, the LPTO issue is ALMOST moot when hogging, and a good N will run a 5" hog all day no problem. My Father does most of the true work with out tractors (I do more pullin" and playin") he has the choice of JD B,A,70,and 420...IH Super C, Super H, and Super M, Ford 2N and 8N...and ( times out of 10 you"ll find him doin" his work on the 2N, and it"s always his choice on plow day. Bottom line is that alot of guys never give Ns a chance simply because they have never had the opportunity to use one...they are one good tractor! Pete

Today's Featured Article - Bad Vibes - by Curtis Von Fange. One of the strangest ways to communicate with our tractor is to ask it how it feels. "Ask it how it feels," you say? Yup, ask it how it feels. Now, as with the other articles in this series one has to be able to hear what 'ole blue' is trying to say in response. The nice thing about our old iron friends is that they are usually quite consistent in their response, rather unlike some people I know who might change what they say due to the weather or other mitigating circumstances. But since t
