    Do Indians not like David Browns

    The blue ones starting to go the same way. Under engineered when you consider the price of them. Poor ventilation, clumsy doors, poor suspension, clumsy rear lift arms, 6 reverse gears. Yes that’s the bad points but not a bad tractor other ways. Like the Davy browns the nh’s have a bit of metal...
