If your farming today with more than 1/2 hp per acre then you are hobby farming and if you are hobby farming with a 1066, you better have deep pockets. It is no cheaper to farm with a 1066 than any new 150 hp tractor. The basic difference is on the 25 year old tractor you don;t have to make the payment next month.
