"I use the tractor for mowing, grading, garden prep, etc. Great power and has the syncro-mesh trans (which I strongly recommend) with the shifters right under the steering wheel. Have used this tractor since it was new as my Dad bought it new."

"I have the 1988 Ford 4610 su II. These are great tractors---plenty of power and the most nimble tractor I've operated. Sharp turn radius helps when mowing in tight places was a JD man for many years, but I haven't had tractor long its impressed me so far. Definitely don't regret buying this one. "

"Haven't had this tractor long. Bought it to mow 14 acres of rough overgrown wet land down on the creek. I sold a John Deere 1020 1966 model because I stayed stuck it didn't have a locking diff the Ford does. Also, I have a bushhog 305 heavy duty 5 ft mower its specs say its designed to cut 3 inch dia. brush. It was a little much for the 38 hp JD, but the ford hardly knows its back there so a 14 hp diff in PTO hp made a diff. But what surprised me is I hardly ever need the diff lock both tires seem to pull unless on uneven ground the JD i was constantly tapping one brake pedal or the other to get the other tire to pull love the ford 4610."
