I was trying to plow under some rye last night to plant the first patch of sweetcorn soon. I have to say I am impressed with the new to me ford 4000. It plowed for several hours on a five gallon can of gas, and the draft system really worked good. Was pulling a 2 bottom in 3rd gear and it was not even working hard.
