I started out with a 1950 D4. Had it for several years and did nothing but routine service. Ran it for 4 or 5 years. Got lots of jobs done. Moved up to a d6b and it was better and faster. Had no trouble with that one. Had it two years and moved up to a D6C. It was great after the others and finally powershift. Had it 3 years and got a John Deere 850B. More power and started doing commercial work. Had it 3 years. Then I bought a 2002 850C and its setting by the shop now. It is a great tractor and fun to use. It is the first one I have done anything to and that was to replace the undercarriage. I had it completely repaced at john deere and it cost me 25000 for the whole thing which I thought was reasonable. So Get one you think will do the job you have now and work your way up. After your first one you will know what to buy and what to look for on the machine. As cheap as a small D4 is you can't lose much money. So just go for it and have Fun!
