I am consolidating equipment on the farm and looking for a dependable older Ford. I was curious if I could get feedback from Ford folks on my best options, looking for:
At least 100HP at PTO
No cab
front wheel assist
very little electronics and simple to work on.
I am thinking the TW series, possibly an 8530. I grew up on a 9700 and a TW-20 but know those aren't really available over here with FWA.
I know some of the newer ones have powershift but I am concerned about the electronics side of that and support down the road.
Thoughts? Much appreciated!
