Being it was around -27 or so here in Southern Minnesota this morning, got me thinking about the best/worst tractor you have ever owned or used in extreme cold weather. For me, my worst tractor was a 1948 Farmall M with loader. This tractor would never start in cold or decently warm weather. It was always shedded, tunes up, good fuel(gas) even with a block heater on it plugged in. I hated this tractor for the 9 years I owned it. Never was reliable anytime of year. The best starting tractor I ever had was a 1953 Allis Chalmers WD45 gas. It had a trip bucket loader onit as well. This tractor never needed a block heater. It always started even when it got -20 or more. Yes tractor was shedded too. I could always rely on this tractor for manure hauling, snow pushing, or whatever I needed it to do. I would like to read some of your tractor adventures now. Sorry if this question was already asked. Kow Farmer Kurt

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
