A couple of things you should keep in mind about the opinions that you will get from the members here about "a reliable tractor" is:

A. Many of the members here have multiple tractors that they use for specific duties, one for mowing, another for snow removal, maybe another for gardening. So "reliable" to them becomes less important because you can always go to your other machine should a problem arise.

and

B. Many of the members here know their machines so well inside and out that when minor issues arise, they don't consider it a "reliability issue" because they usually know exactly what's wrong and how to fix it quickly. In other words "no big deal"!

You have to ask yourself if you fit, or eventually can fit into either category before getting onto a 40 year old tractor that you hope to be "reliable". Not trying to sway either way but hope that made sense.
