While I know we're talking apples and oranges, there really are some valid reasons to convert to 12V.
Our 8N and H are still 6V and start just fine, we've converted our 9N and WD to 12V.
The N runs a custom sprayer we built that has each nozzle controlled by a 12V solenoid. They just weren't available in 6V. This has sprayed countless miles of Borough roads, lawns for parties as well as a few fairgrounds. Living in some fairly twisty curvy country roads, we felt the need for much better lighting than 6V could provide for our safety. It also allows us to run a sufficient light bar and gum balls to satisfy our insurance company to cover us for evening hay rides.
While it's true that we converted these two before we had the M/F 65 and the Ford 3000 we still use them both for their intended purposes, as well as in the field tractors.
None of this addresses the real issue that is, the N can now run a 12V beer cooler, and that's worth the hassle of conversion alone. :mrgreen:
