Hugh, I just don't believe all that. I have used these hard for many years. My straight C has been working hard since I got it in 1975. I did put rings in it after 22 years of hard work. I overhauled the SC in 1996 when I got it, and have used it hard since. It doesn't burn one drop of oil yet. Pull a 100 inch Ford mower with it and mow lots of hay as well as cultivate all my tobacco and most the corn with it. You ought to get you one and try it yourself. Got an uncle that has had one as his main tractor since 1968 and he hasn't worn it out either. They must have been alright as they sold nearly 100,000 of them in 4 years, and 80,000 plain C's in 4 years. I have heard the story about your mechanic before and think he just didn't like them for some reason. SA and 100/130/140 still sell good around here too, but a good SC will sell as good or a little better here. Now a newer model 140 in top shape will outsell any of the others here.
