Useful for buyers considering this tractor for fieldwork rather than loader/mowing duties.
Posted by an owner-operator sharing candid, unfiltered impressions from actual use on his own property.
The owner says it is on the struggle bus for tillage, lacking weight and four-wheel drive, and would not want to disc with it all day long.
The owner recommends a heavier, larger-wheeled tractor like an early 1970s Massey Ferguson 150, a Massey 135, Ferguson 35, or 165.
Yes, the owner says for odds and ends, loader work, and mowing it does okay and does what he expected it to do really well.
