What痴 the Difference Between a Lawn, Yard and Garden Tractor?

LOL. That's all everyone around here farms a garden with. I guess everyone has a large garden. Mine this year will be .4 to .5 acres. That's not very large. That's one of a pair of 140s that i just traded for. That one is in perfect condition. The second one needs some work but is still all original. I've always wanted one and am stoked about finally getting two of them.

To me a garden tractor has a 3 point hitch and PTO, yet is small enough to work an average garden. Mine is 15 HP

That tractor has a single point Fasthitch. There were implements made specifically for it. But for plowing and side dressing a garden the rear and belly lift carried the cultivators. That's what makes it such a perfect machine for working a garden. Besides that, you just look down and you can see your crop as it is being plowed.

.4 Ac. is larger then MOST of the populations entire lots including the house & garage.

Sounds like they just need a tiller.

Those old Farmall belly equipped machines are cool. I hope to own a Cub one day.

Cubs and 100s are really hard to come by. I see As now and again but there were so many 140s around here you can actually find them. They are really expensive and it is almost impossible to find one in the shape mine is in. Even the second one I'm getting is really good but there is an issue with the smoking engine. I'll probably completely refurbish that one and sell it.

How are attachment parts to come by?

I got most everything for cultivating with this tractor. I just bought a fasthitch one row planter. Some things are still available and some things are being made on the aftermarket. Ag Supply has quite a bit of the items. I have no interest in a disc, bush hog or ant other fasthitch ground engaging implements. My need was for planting, cultivating, side dressing and middlebusting.
