Very dependable tractor. Will have a better cab than the Massey. Quieter and more comfortable. WAY more room than a Deere SoundGard. I love how quiet the SoundGard's are, but you can't find a spot to set a water bottle without it getting under the seat. Way easier to get into than a maroon belly. Better steps and a smaller steering wheel. The Perkins is a bit bigger and will likely be a better cold starter. Unless I was only doing field work, I'd want a Power Shift. If you're doing any roading at all, forget the Power Director. Allis never did figure what syncro's were, and for that reason, the Power Directors suck. Final drives on those tractors are very heavy built, transmissions are too for that matter. PowerShift clutches are huge. The engines are the weak point, and there's nothing weak about a 301, but they don't have enough torque to damage anything. I will say though, regarding the PowerShift, unless you keep it in a heated shop, they are not a great blower tractor. Reverse gear is power hungry when the oil is cold. It really helps to add a door shock to the door. There's a guy that makes a kit for them. I used a shock from a 94 Safari van with dutch doors.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
