I have nothing against used equipment or vehicles.
Matter of fact i've never bought anything new in my 40 yrs of farming.
There is no way i could've made a living with it if it wasn't for buying used.
Ofcourse it helped a great deal that i can and do maintain and repair it all myself.
On top of that i can't see spending 100 grand + on a new tractor that is used maybe 300 hrs a year is a wise decision,a 10 grand one will do the same as the new one and leaves 90 grand to spend on a lot of other nessecary items(all used ofcourse :wink: )
I have a full line of equipment + spares and i don't think i spend much over 100 grand total for it.
I have more tractors than i need so there's always a spare if one breaks down.
Same goes for vehicles,Wife drives a 95 GMC $2000 truck(diesel) bought 3 yrs ago,she put 100 k on it with no issues.
I drive a 98 CMC 3/4 t diesel bought for 5 grand 4 yrs ago,its gonna last me another 10 if i don't wreck it.
