So, I'm considering selling off my old work clan of Fords and purchasing one new utility tractor to replace them. I've enjoyed almost every moment of collecting and repairing these old beasts ( 8n, NAA, 600, 800), however practicality and ease of use is a driving factor.
I haven't been to any local dealers as of yet, since they are pretty sporadic around me, but I've been considering the standards such as Kubota, Mahindra, and possibly something in New Holland.
Kubota kinda speaks for itself.
The Mahindra seems fairly comparable +/-
Haven't seen much in the New Holland line.
Any thoughts or owner opinions would be great.
What I'm looking for is something I can use for general hobby farm maintenance, large garden tilling, tree removal, finish deck mowing of about 5 acres, and possibly large enough to use for bailing hay when the farmer that leases my small fields retires. Preferably around 50hp
Thanks in advance,
Jim
