Traded in my 20 year old Kubota M6800 for a new Farmall 120C.

There all different price points and options like transmissions, cabs, creature comforts on what series you go with. 120A is part of the 100A series mid-range tractors. Built in Mexico pretty basic tractor built kind of cheaply. 120U is the utility series.120C is in the C Series utility.
 
Thats a very nice tractor, youll love the fully enclosed cab. Def isnt a big deal most times. We had a T6 Newholland for 5 years and had absolutely no issues with it or the DEF.
 
Nice to have the comfort of the cab, as well as having the exhaust pipe off to the corner of the cab. I hope you have have good luck with your new tractor. And heading into winter and living in WI, could there be a better time to go to a cab ?
 
Your old one looks pristine, obviously looked after ....... somebody's gonna get a nice used tractor. It'll probably find a new home before it makes it to the sales lot, that happens with pristine cars and trucks that are traded in. While some pooh pooh trading things into dealers, it sure makes life easier I would say.
 
The cab was one of several reasons I bought now. Also, while the Kubota was the best tractor I ever had, I'm going to need a utility tractor with more power for my upcoming operations which include a larger, heavier planter. The Kubota was maxed out on a John Deere 6 row planter loaded with seed and liquid fertilizer not to mention hills. I wanted a planter tractor with a 60 inch tread center and this one has it. John Deere ran out of tractors and Kubota wouldn't be able to get me a new tractor until April of 2022. In the meantime, New Holland and CaseIH were having a big sale on tractors. They had them sitting all over the place. This will also be my snow plowing, wood hauling tractor and, at age 85, I don't really enjoy sitting out in the open all that much. I've gone through several episodes where the day started out nice and then turned ugly before I was finished. All that, plus I wanted to buy now for tax reasons. I don't think DEF is going to cause any problems. My wife's BMW 328dX uses DEF and it will soon be 8 years old with no problems yet.
 

That 6800 you traded in looks pretty good, a cousin has one that's given him good service, if you had traded in my area I'd be trying to purchase it

Your new tractor looks nice but I'm just not in to the newer electronic farm equipment
 
Glad to see an 85 yr. young fellah planning for the future. I have a friend who's 94 and thinks the way you do. Nice tractor.
