First off, I've never been on a NF tractor. However, I like the wide stance that a WF offers. Many folks say that NF tractors are more stable, but wife's dad almost died one time when his tractor turned over and pinned him underneath. He was stuck there for several hours, and had permanent injuries from the accident.
