There's been very little mention of the Allis Chalmers D-14 and D-15. In my mind, these tractors are among the best "value" for the dollar. Especially the D-14s. Very good ones can be had in the 2,000 to 3,000 range. Way more hp then an 8n. Plus, you get live PTO with the power director! And as a bonus, you get an infinite speed adjuster with the power director! Want to creep along at .0001 miles an hour while brush hogging a thick patch? Use the power director! The PTO keeps going no matter how slow you go. Same with running a small baler, or other implement. The clutch runs in an oil bath, so it doesn't care how much you slip it. Plus, you get 8 speeds! Power steering available if you need a loader. 3 pnt is available. Just make sure the one you get doesn't jump out of gear (especially 3rd). Plenty of parts are available. Can you tell I like the D-14s and 15s? On second thought, maybe I should be keeping this info under my hat. Ya, just forget everything I just said, lol! Thanks much! Marc
