An M is a beefcake compared to an H. I have run H's and M's both. Have also worked on both. M is taller, heavier, more powerful, etc. My grandfather farmed til the early 70's with an M and an H. The M did all the grunt work on about 200 acres of crop. Mounted corn picker, pulling silage chopper and wagon, plowing. The H did the cultivating, disc, pulling wagon, running augers. Even then, the H was not a go to tractor for power, it was the smaller model, practical because you have to make a profit and it burned less gas, and was cheaper to purchase. I did some plowing this summer with a H, breaking new ground, 2 X 14 is all it can do, and that was taxing its ability in that dry sod. Now adays I would use an H for a 5 ft mower, pulling wagons, and light tasks. If I had a choice between the 2 I would 100% choose an M if I were getting another one. The scale of everything got bigger these days, # acres, size of augers, etc, The H just cannot offer what an M can as a chore tractor on a farm these days.

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”.
