[AT] Farmall Super A vs 100

[john hall]

Grant, we used 2 Super A's to raise 25 acres of tobacco with no problems 
cultivating. Personally I HATE the other offset series IH tractors. I don't 
like the styling and most of them have BIG steering wheels--and the ones 
with the slow steering drive me nuts. I know you are pretty tall but I would 
imagine you would have plenty of leg room on a Super A. By the way, when 
ours weren't in a tobacco field they were hauling up hay or straw, running 7 
ft sickle mowers cutting hay, or towing a 500 gallon tank of either water or 
liquid nitrogen. I do believe both of ours have had power-pack pistons 
installed though.
