Speaking of tractors, I have a friend that has a '53(I think) Ford Jubilee. He treats it
like a baby. I mean, he uses it, but if something goes wrong, he is right on it.


Nice tractor ('52 to '54) with optional live PTO. Live hydraulics, live PTO, and power steering are woefully unavailable for the N series. I need to dig a lot of postholes, but can't with this tractor. The PTO has to spin for the lift to work, so if the auger got caught on one of the many county-sized rocks, I'd pretty much have to use it as a fence-post. :)

I've always believed in either using a machine or selling it to someone who will. They don't want to just be looked at.

I really want a Kubota. With all the accessories. I am trying to decide whether to get a Harley or a tractor next.

Despite having some ridiculous yard toys like the backhoe, I still use an MTD 12.5-horse riding mower. And a brush-hog on the 2N. I'm mowing about 5 acres between the two mowers. Seriously considering putting a Woods belly mower under the 2N and doing all of the mowing with it.
