Wow! I was just showing the boy who ask about dual wheels on a SC that it could be done, and would not likely hurt his tractor. I was just poking at Hugh a little as he and I have had this SC/SA debate going for some time.
They are both fine machines and hold up very well within their limits. The SC happens to fit my needs much better as I do raise tobacco, and use a 2 row transplanter to set it with. This in itself makes the SC much better for me and many tobacco farmers as we can cultivate 2 rows at once instead of one with the SA/100/130/140. Many of which are still being used to cultivate tobacco here in KY.
Duals would not work for ground work such as disking as the C-123 would NOT have the power to pull a disk wide enough to harrow out the tire tracks. Nor would the C-135. It however does work very well for mowing which is the onkly time I use the dual setup.
Like I told Hugh I have seen folks who could tear up an anvil with a rubber mallet. I also see where using any tractor on frozen ground is hard on them if not used with a little common sense and extreme care.
There is NO confict about this subject, just simply two old farts as Hugh says voicing their opinions on two fine old tractors of yesteryear.
By the way tobacco is here to stay. It makes to much money for the gov't to get rid of. Keep in mind I am not advocating the use of it as it can NOT be good for you.

I had been casually looking for a tractor for weeks. I saw a few 9N's, but they had even fewer amenities than the 8N my Grandpa bought new in '52 with a Dearborn loader. That was 10 years before I was born, so I grew up thinking that 8N was the world's best tractor. Grandpa had greenhouses, with over half an acre under glass, and that 8N did almost everything. It was the only
