Hello,
I own a small 6 acre vegetable farm and we are in need of a good, solid tractor that will work within our peculiar system. We use a 5-foot bed system, so our tractor must be only 5' wide. It also must have a tight turning radius - less than 10 feet.
We already have a modern Kubota L35, but because it has a backhoe and a loader, we don't want to burn it out doing hours of tilling and mowing. We need something in the 30-50 horsepower range to work with the implements we already own.
The ideal tractor for us might be the IH 274, if it didn't have an offset PTO. I'm looking at the Ford 9N and the JD 2040. Does anyone have any other ideas?
