Ha. You're right - get the whole bunch. Oh well, I don't have that much room - or bank account. First, I am like you, I never did, "take," to the Ford N series, or any Ford for that matter. No reason; I'm sure they are good and a great part of history. They just didn't take with me. I collected John Deere's on steel many years ago...D's, AR's, GP's, etc. Finally got out of it and doubt I'd go back just based on the high premium dollars JD's bring. I know I can get just as good a service life out of something cheaper with less cult appeal. No offense to JD's, I think they are great - just a dollar decision on my part. The Allis models you mentioned are nice looking tractors, but I agree with buying into a large production number for parts availability. So that kicks out Ford and JD for me. Following the advantage of large production numbers I think your initial recommendation of the Super A, 100's, etc., is well founded and logical. I also think all this drops the Cub way down on the list considering the needs I have and the Cub's disadvantages. And it sounds like my large windbreak here in wheat country could use a low profile machine just like your apparent needs. Thanks again, Dennis
