An 8N tractor is an excellent mowing machine - I have two that maintain my 42 acres. The tractors can be found cheap, new parts are still readily available, and parts are cheap as well. Get an over running clutch that goes between your PTO and mower shaft to keep the mower from pushing the tractor even when you push in the clutch. You can get these at New Holland dealers, farm and ranch stores, and online. Get some stabilizer bars as well to keep the mower from digging in when you make sharp turns. I would recommend a 5' mower for the tough stuff, or you could use a 6' mower if it is light grass and is mowed often. Good luck, Dan
