It just depends on what you're using them for. For heavy field work,yes,big,powerful and comfortable are a must. But on a livestock and hay operation these older tractors are just fine. I use a 1951 Oliver 77 every day,seven days a week 365 to feed silage. I use a 1963 Oliver 1600 with a loader to handle round bales every day and a 1967 1550 gas on the big double hay rake. There's no reason on earth to be making payments on a new tractor for those jobs when those old ones are just as reliable as new ones.
Not everybody cash crops corn and beans. Some of us make a good living raising livestock with this older stuff that's paid for.
