TD, I would agree with Pitch below. Any tractor can be dangerious but the 8N will do a good job for you. To me the bigger problem with the 8N is the non-live lift and not the pto, unless you are mowing close to ponds or mowing in fourth gear. I personally like the utilitiy tractors like the 8N but the Massey Ferguson 35 (or TO 35) would be better for the price (in my opinion)It is very similar to the MF 135 but at a lower price. Some of the other tractors mentioned will also do the job. I use a MF 65 myself and I bought it in the price range you are looking at and I have not had any problems. I think you can get good tractors for $3000. Just my 2 cents.
