Ford didn't need to build a large tractor. Fords whole thing was that their little tractor with the ferguson system could do as much work as a large heavy tractor. In fact tractors under 55 hp have always out sold and out numbered all other larger tractors worldwide. makes me think. the other day I was in the local Massey dealer and they had a brand new 431 tractor next to a restored massey 35 and there wasn't a whole lotta diference between them mechanically. Just goes to show those little fords and fergusons are timeless, more so in my opinion then Deere's 4020.
