I am not a mechanic by any means, I can change belts, oil, batteries and hoses. I just need a tractor that is the most reliable and has the least maintenance? First time on here ,so I am learning?(quoted from post at 22:08:25 02/14/16) You don't mention your aptitude or time available. If
the time spent isn't a big deal and you are
mechanically inclined an old gas tractor is just fine. I
farm 1000 acres and still have jobs for gas tractors.
A little Farmall A does some yard mowing and runs
all of the augers. I have a gas Farmall M that grinds
all of the feed each week. It's very maneuverable
and has live hydraulics. Live PTO isn't necessary
for that job.
If I am mowing grader ditches or pastures I use the
886 with a 15 foot batwing - I'm not doing that dusty
job without a cab or air!
(quoted from post at 03:24:40 02/15/16) He says he's going to be brush hogging. He will definatly(sic) need a tractor with live PTO on it. Unless, of course we want the bush hog to push him over a bank or hill. ...............
Would a car port shed open on the sides be ok ? Maybe cover the sides with a tarp? Keep comments coming! I thank you all very much!! I have spme experience driving old gas/propane tractors. I am not like I have never operated one. No experience with diesels. I just want a tractor that isn't a money pit! Thanks!(quoted from post at 07:14:25 02/15/16) I brush hog with a Farmall M and use an over running clutch. No problems and use a 6' tow behind mower. I have a three point hitch on the M,
but I feel a medium duty three point hitch brush hog will make the front end light on steep hills. The tractor needs to be at least tarped. I buy a
decent $30 tarp every 3 years. The tractor never sits out in the rain. Good luck with your decision.
