I disagree. And I do not like your tone. Today it hard for anyone to make a living big farmer or small. Older smaller machines fit the needs a small farmer Used to plow 10 ac with VAC case and pick corn with a 1-row corn picker... It was work... Today one can plow in a hour what took an old tractor many days to do.

That is as complex as rocket ship. If could I would be farming 1400 ac. and yes I would use a New one but.

It is a tractor not a ***** sports car. They were made to work and be used............
