It does not matter how good you can sing you will get sick of your own voice after 7-8 hours so bring a radio.
A set of ear plugs will help reduce how deaf you will feel when you finally get home if the tractor has a noisy exhaust.
SMV sign and a set of magnet mount battery powered lights if you won't be making it home before dark.
Whatever mpg you get won't really matter unless you are going half way across the country, a full tank on any tractor I have ever owned will last for a full long day of work, should be a bit better in road gear.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
