: A husband and wife team are moving from San Francisco to farm country in Maine and are now responsible for mowing 6 acres and plowing over 150 feet of drive. : Looking for a tractor, mower, plow, and wagon. Do I need anything else. Any quality used equipment I should consider/avoid? HELP! My ten cents worth is to get yourself a late (1952) Ford 8N, that's mechanically sound. You'll have to pay $3500 or more but it will appreciate in value and is an indestructible machine. It's also easy to work on and starts in the snow if you keep plugs, points, carb in good shape. It has a 3pt hitch and will take the implements you need for mowing and snow clearing. You might want to contact Gerard Rinaldi who owns the N Newsletter in Chelsea VT. He'll give you all the contacts you'll need. Good luck.
