I have a MF 255 which replaced the 165 which replaced the 65. These tractors are about 50 hp. You didn't say how much land you have to keep up so here's my thoughts. On the smaller tractor's I would go for the 135 with power steering even if it cost a little more than you had planned. If you go with the larger tractor such as the 165 remmeber these are larger and or not as easy to climb on and JUMP off. I am 50 years old and several years ago added an extra step to my 255 and the only mistake was not putting one on the other side. A friend and I have about 60 to 70 cows on about 120 acres with another 80 to 100 acres cut as hay so at times climbing on and off can get very old. Once your in the seat however you going to get some work done. If you just have 10 to 20 acres and just putter around get the 135 with power steering. You may want a loader someday. If you have more acreage you might wish to have the bigger tractor for more power and larger implements. Sometimes a little more is better than not hardly enough. Good luck.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
