I have taken a spin on a G and loved it, but what about these little Tuff-bilts I see from time to time.  I looked over one at a farm show down in Louisville, KY last year.  Same principle as the G...almost identical in appearance, but with a cat 2 hitch and pto on the back to boot.  Not as much weight or HP as I would like but how much do you need cultivating and planting salad greens?

Trying to do this type of stuff with the tractors I have is a bear with the utter lack of visibility low and underneath.  All my stuff is designed for corn, soybean, and wheat.

I need an alternative and while a TB is going to be more expensive I was curious how the two compare.  I am looking at four G for sale right now ranging from 2700 to 5K and the TB is a bit more than that.

Hands down, the G is the right choice.  There are still lots of
accessories around here.  They were used as tobacco tractors mostly.
