I wanted to provide a bit more info: The local dealer here is JD so most farmers, including myself, run them. Parts are next day. In this valley there are two large operations. Both run IH and case even though the dealer is over 100 miles away. I think because the local JD shop is proud of its work $$$$$. Like many other tractor dealers the local shop has three times the lawnmowers and compact tractors as ag tractors. They still cater to alot of dairymen and feed operations. I am so uneducated about any larger newer tractors but the green ones that I wouldnt even know what models to start looking for. Specifically interested in lots of gears, slow, and comfortable. I read this board daily and have come to respect and look forward to peoples input and knowledge regarding Farmall/IH . With a few recommendations I thought I could start looking around and getting some pricing ideas. I currently run a '49 farmall SA, '68 JD 3020, and a 79 JD 1630. Also a '48 Panhead, and a '67 f100. Seems like I spend alot of time staring anxiously at gauges and wondering "what was that noise". Is it too much to ask to find the perfect tractor, a bit newer, close to home, low hours, trouble free, and cheap. Maybe I should start looking under cabbage leaves.

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
