Interesting comments about how much tractor a person 'needs' for 150 acres. 1948, Dad had a '39 WC and a Model C on 200 acres, then bought another 160 acres. '51, traded the C for a second WC with mounted corn picker. Mixed farm, oats, corn, hay, pasture. Sold the 160 in '54, bought another 40 in '57?, bought another 320 in 61, so total of 560 acres. Then we had a WD45, a WC, and my newly purchased Model C, later a WD was added. Granted, had more hay ground than corn and beans, but everything got a workout with just the two of us. Timeliness is more of an issue these days, along with the concept of farming full-time, or on evenings and weekends. Farming on my own these 40 years, I spent more late hours than I ever did growing up. Heck, the only dependable lights back then were on the new WD45!
