Hello Everyone, getting around to purchasing my first tractor. Been looking at primarily 8N's, doing a lot of research and leaning that way, BUT, not too many around and the ones that are, are a bit too high in price. found some nice 9's and have run across a totally restored 2, which is in MINT condition as far as I can see. Its 600 miles away though. He also has a really nice 8 to boot. The 2 is 2k cheaper.It's a '44 for 3000.00.Knowing what I know and being some what familiar with them, what suggestions can I get on them, including the 9N. Will be primarily used for mowing and road upkeep (base rocked road).Can a 2 or 9 handle a 4-5' box scraper as my buddy's 8 can. Any feedback will be GREATLY appreciated!!
