Grandpa looked at/ tried other brands before settling on the M. The 9N in 1941 was pitched to him as filling all his needs. But he quickly realized the 9N's strengths were in tillage and mowing but not in pulling heavy manure spreaders, corn pickers through mud, and not having enough power for a pull type combine. In the end he was put off about the 9N because the salesman would not readily address his concerns about it. He looked at a John Deere A but did not like the hand clutch and I don't Deere had the Remote cylinder Power Trol then. I think he also looked at Oliver and Massey Harris but thought the Farmall M was more ergonomic. They probably lacked remote hydraulics as well at the time. Even though he was unhappy with the Ford salesman he might have bought a 9N or 2N to do light chores due to the hydraulic 3 point hitch but then other things came along.
