So I have been looking for a tractor for a while. My experience with a JD 2010 has left me a little gun shy. But in the search for the perfect tractor it dawned on me. What is missing on all the newer (post 1970s) tractors under say 40 hp?...... CROP CLEARANCE. So I realize this will probably never change but I have to ask why. With the growing popularity of small organic farms you would think the market for small row crop tractors would come back. There is a couple companies making a "modern" G allis. While there not flying off the shelves they do have small but steady sales. . You would think if someone did the same with a Farmall A or Allis B it would have the same or even a little better sales as a "G" is some what limited in design. Last I checked the "New" G sold for about $10k. But put that in perspective a Cub Cadet xt3 sells for about $6k and that is basically a lawn mower. And a 25hp Massey Ferguson (gc1500??) sells for about $9k with no attachments. If people are willing to drop $9k on the Massey which is more or less a nice garden tractor you would think there would be a market for a similar tractor with crop clearance and the ability to pull a full 16 inch plow or maybe two. Just a Thought. Sod Buster.
