Everyone is going to tell you their favorite tractor. Everyone has there own opinion and reason why.
By all means I am bias to John Deere. My only other real experience to another color is my Oliver model 1950 and running my neighbors Internationals.
I did not like the jumpy clutch on them IH, the 56 and 66 series were not to bad compared to the 06 and 86 series. I never cared for the grinding when you shifted them either.
I hated the poor hydraulics on the Oliver's, steering and brakes. The idea behind the 2 speed (Hydr-power) was great, but for anyone to build a unit that intentionally free wheeled when in Hydr-Power going down hill should of been fired.
I would stick with John Deere green, you can not beat there hydraulics which includes steering, brakes, 3-point, and remotes from that vintage (pre 1970's) The smooth shifting, good seat suspension, and easy controls make it my choice.
