My closest dealer is MF, 12 miles as opposed to 25. I will not buy anything supported by Agco, that dealer leaves EVERYTHING to be desired. And after contacting Agco about it was told they don't care about service after the sale, only that he sell new equipment. He does that by claiming that parts are NLA and that you have to hunt the parts used but he can make you one heck of a deal on....so just having a dealer there isn't always good enough. Check out the dealers in the area by talking to other customers with older equipment. I'm currently looking at getting rid of my last piece of Agco supported equipment because of that dealer. Funny thing is I was about to look into buying a MF 60-70 HP tractor new when that dealership changed hands.
Yep sure are a great company to deal with. I have great parts support for my old IH and Ford stuff from any CaseIH dealer. Any tractor is no better than dealer support.
If yer looking at something the same physical size as the TO the Ford hundred series would be OK. If you want a loader do some research. Some did have power steering. Or the 2/3000's.
IH and JD made some decent utilities too although some of the older IH ones can be difficult to get parts for.
