I own a 1977 (first year) 150. I use it as a loader tractor on my acreage (no livestock) and the main reason I bought it, blowing snow. Works great for what I use it, I have a long driveway and will never use anything but a front mounted blower after using this. Love the 4x4 and hydro on the blower.
The 150's have a Perkins in them and they seem to outshine their rated HP on the blower IMO.
As pointed out below the loader and 3 pt. are both on the cab end, so it's one or the other, loader removal / install is simple, about 10 minutes on a flat surface.
The cab is small and tight as pointed out below, can be a pain for loader work requiring a lot of in and out, especially if you're a big guy.
Overall I like mine for what I use it for and I'm glad I bought it. The later 254 & 276's have bigger cabs, though they are bigger all around and bring a lot more money, I would have to consider one if buying again.
I'd be happy to answer more questions about owning a 150 if you want more specifics.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
