Good Little Tractor

Like A Young Work Horse

Cannot break this tractor. Gets all of the routine maintenance and keeps on going. Tough to explain all the exertion I have placed on this tractor.

Pros: Tough and reliable every use.
Cons: Parts are hard to come by and fairly expensive.

Ford 1500
Model Year: 1978

Love this little tractor, reliable, dependable and amazingly powerful. I mow with it, do general clearing and use it to launch my pontoon boat into the lake. Just back the tractor into the lake, sand bottom and away we go. Looks a little odd with the small tractor with the large pontoon boat but works great.. I love it.

Pros: Miser on fuel, great size for what I use it for, reliable.
Cons: Little difficult to mount, can only mount on the seft side.
