I have had old Fords in the past and since
sold all. I am now trying to get back into a few
old tractors. My gut tells me to stick with the
Fords (8N, 600s) because I had such good
luck with them. But a few old JDs have caught me eye latley.
Mainly 420s and 430s. I know you can find these with 5 speeds and
live PTO which the Fords don't have. BUT
other than that, are these good tractors to own,
do they hold up as well as the reliable Fords?
I have seen other say these models of JDs
(Dubuque) are not very good. I am looking mainly for a toy to use for fun right
now. But maybe in the future do a little brush
hogging. I COULD always just buy a bush hog
for the BX2200 and keep the old tractor as a
toy only.
It seems the JDs may cost a little more. What
would you do???
