Well I do run a 9n and a jubilee everyday. Granted they have rebuilt engines and I can go out and start them no problem at negative 10 degrees due to good compression. Its hard to compare a tractor that's 50 plus years old to a new one unless its rebuilt. I gaurantee I can get more work done with my tractor then you can on a similar sized tractor. If you take in account for down time to run yours into the shop to put it on the computer to tell you it takes a 5dollar fuse to fix it. They charge you 50 if your lucky for the diagnostic test and you then spend a day tearing off all the plastic shields and other crap that's always in the way in todays machines.

But I think if you combined new age products into a simple mechanically inclined machined that's easy to tear into and replace parts I think they'd make a killing. I own a vw jetta as a run around car. Granted its built well by German engineers it required the taking out of the entire engine just to replace a water pump that frequently goes out 700 dollars in labor for a 110 dollar part that's the stuff that gets me.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
