I know I said it was a 2 plow tractor and Im no expert on those old Fords.I wore out a TO 20 Fergusen though. It had been souped up with the same size tires as a NAA and it pulled 2 14s in gumbo,but was a lot happier with a 8ft double disc in the gumbo.I dont know how much difference the horsepower is,but it wasnt a lot more than a 8n.I never saw anybody that had,or tried to farm with one of the ones that had a 3 speed transmission.I remember going to auctions or implement dealers with my dad and if it had a 3 speed transmission he was already walking down the line,didnt need to look at it any more.He had one of those before I was born,but from what I remember wasnt all that happy with it,and by the time I was born all he had was a NAA and TO20 which is a lot better,but still not a 841.I have ran a 1952 8n pulling a roller,wagons,a blade,and I even plowed a garden with it with 2 14s.I think a newer 8n would maybe pull a 2 bottom plow alright in 2nd gear,for sure in low.I dont know about in gumbo.If you have fluid in the tires,and the size tires that a NAA has,a good motor,maybe souped up if you can do that to one of them,I think it will plow with a 2 bottom plow.I dont know about all day,or how hot it will get.I have not ever seen a one bottom plow for one of those,not that I really ever looked,but everybody that had one I know had a 2 14 plow for it.The more I think about it,and with what you would have to put up with,the 841 looks like the best idea by far to try and farm with.A 9n or 2n would probably not work at all because of the 3 speed transmission and the 8n would be rough considering you could have an 841.Back in the days before an 841 a 9n or 2n or 8n would be quite a bit better than horses to me if I had to do it,but there is not much comparison to a 841.I think I would rather have a gas 841 if it was me looking for a tractor.A lot depends on what you want to do with your farm,mowing is a lot easier on the machinery than plowing.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
