Have been looking at this model Ford tractor and am seeking advice on what is a reasonable amount to pay for one. They seem to be running from 10k to 16k+.....nicer ones closer to 16k. That is on CL and tractorhouse.
What is a reasonable amount one should expect to pay for less than 5,000 hours (hard to know if those are actual or just on that tach)? How much should loader contribute?
Would rather buy with the loader, as that seems to be cheaper than buying tractor, then loader and installing later, but if you can find a tractor with no loader on it, and no evidence it has had one on it, then you know it hasn't been abused and has the front end about to fall apart.
