Hay and pasture maintenance is mainly what I do making around 1000 rolls per year.

For my operation 70-90 hp tractors work good for me along with 45-65 hp for smaller jobs like raking and tedding.

For the larger tractor a Ford 7710 series II or John Deere 2955 would be my top choices, they have good power and nice cabs.

9000 Kabota is another good one, Case 5130 with the 5.9 Cummins is another one to look at.

Lots of older tractor out there that are good but the older cabs were not so good.

My granddad had Olivers but I agree the White 2-85 or 2-105 would be better choices

IH 86 series are real work horses if you can find one that's been treated well, TA and shift linkage issues are their only draw backs.

Can't said anything about Massy or the older Case tractors, hasn't been a dealer in this area since the early 70's
