Something that nobody has mentioned is where are you going to be able to put it? You are not going to be wanting to leave it outsise all the time. Andyou probably do not have anything more than a car garage to keep it in and most only have a 7' high door with perhaps a foot of clearanceinside above height of door. All the others you are talking about except the Ford and possibly a Ferguson in the TO-20, TO-30 or TO-35 models are probably going to be TOO tall to get in a garage door like that. I know a Johb Deere B or Farmall H are going to be to tall to go in a garage like that and some a little lower like the AC with vertical exaust bight clear the door but then you are still throwing that exaust against the ceiling with a good chance of it malikg a fire in garage. Stick with something like that Ford you are talking about as you can put one safly in to a standard car garage for working on it or just storing it, The tall ones that you mentioned like the JD or even the Farmall H you might be stuck leaving it outside and working on it outside because too tall to get in garage and if storage width could be a problem other than the Ford or Ferguson an AC B is the only one that will narrow down enough possibly for that and exaust would still be too close to celing and you should get something with a standard cat 1 3 point hitch if you would ever want to do a bit of work with it like mowing your lawn and that Ford would easy handle a finnish mower that the other tractors you cannot mount one on without problems. And for what you are wanting forget about a live pto as it will do you no good and power steering also the Fords stear easy enough you no not need the hastel of power steering. And they will do very good on a tractor drive. Just make a small cary platform for on the 3 point hitch in case you would ever want to take somebody with you on that tractor drive as you could put a couple of lawn chairs on that plus a cooler with drinks and possibly lunch as a lot of tractor drives you have to take your own drinks and eats. You could also cary an extra can of gas or a tow chain in case you would happen to need it for yourself or somebody else. And setting low like The ford and the wide front it is a lot safer to operate tractor for a newbe like yourself than a tall narrow front tractor. You don't need or should want power steering, live pto or things like that to make it harder to start and learn on. Easiest to work on is the Ford everything else more complicated And keep in mind where or how you are going to store it. Even the small Case mentioned probably not going in your garage

Today's Featured Article - Tuning-Up Your Tractor: Plugs & Compression Testing - by Curtis Von Fange. The engine seems to run rough. In the exhaust you can hear an occasion 'poofing' sound like somethings not firing on all cylinders. Under loaded conditions the tractor seems to lack power and it belches black smoke out of the exhaust. For some reason it just doesn't want to start up without cranking and cranking the starter. All these conditions can be signals that your unit is in need of a tune up. Ok, so what is involved in a tune up? You say, swap plugs and file the points....now tha ... [Read Article]
