I've never bought a new tractor. I wouldn't buy a product on time payments that depreciates faster than already eaten corn flakes. But - that's just me.
Whatever you get, buy the extra extended warranty that covers ALL the electronics, wiring, controls, switches, buttons, etc. Not the driveline stuff, but all the gadgetry.
My neighbor at the lake bought a brand new mini-tractor with FEL back in Nov when they were having a closeout on in-stock inventory. Maybe it was a 2017 model, I don't know. It's been back in the shop 4 times for various electrical issues. There's a PTO tach needle that's stuck at 540, no matter what the engine speed is.

For very little money, this piece of equipment promises to plow and flatten any hill or vale on your ranch road or farm. At least that's what I thought! As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want � unless you own a monster tractor. U
