There's nothing 'Ford' left in all but a very few models in NH's lineup today, and perhaps a few isolated components here and there. When you integrate the components and features of 3 major tractor lines in 15 years and modernize them all as you go, there's not much left of the old ones... I think if you're looking to buy a new tractor you'd do yourself a favor to look around at all of them for which you have a good, strong servicing dealer for in your area. Research what you want and compare them on specs. They all have top end models and they all have bargain hunter models. Shop and compare. The only thing I would strongly recomend is that you stay clear of the ROC crap and any graymarket, used jap stuff because you don't know what you're getting into with parts support or some features on those tractors.
The deal you get out of a Deere or NH dealer is as much proportional to the dealer and what kind of service he gives and how bad he wants you as a customer... it's got little to do with the paint color. I don't buy this crap that's constantly spouted by some on here about Deere or Deere parts being more expensive. Mabey if you buy the odd lynch pin now and then you'll pay more. When you buy in excess of 10 grand a year in parts you find that Deere is expensive. NH is expensive. Massey is expensive. Kubota is expensive. They're all expensive. Welcome to 2008. I find very little difference between any of them in parts pricing and I've gone as far as to cross reference some identical parts for some impliments that were outsourced by all of them from one manufacturer. Sometimes Deere sells those parts cheaper than the OEM's dealer. Go figure... I'm not really a big Deere fan. Ford has always been my preference, but I get tired of seeing some of this unfactual crap on here all the time. One thing I can tell you... of all the dealers I deal with, of all colors, Deere is the most likely to have parts on hand, and most likely to get the quickest from a warehouse if the dealer doesn't have the part. That's something worth thinking about.

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
