I'm in the market for a second tractor in the 130HP range (4wd, duals). I've currently got a Kubota M7040 (70hp) but need to get into ploughing and seeding my fields in rotation this year.
My budget is around $40-60K. Every machine I look at typically has 3500-6000 hours on it. Now I'm not sure if I should buy a 'newer' tractor for $60K with those hours, or two $30K 'older' tractors with the same hours.
On one hand I'm thinking that buying two 30K tractors will give me a backup in case the other breaks down when I really need it. But the 60K machine might be more reliable than two cheaper one's combined.
What do you think? Perhaps all I need is a single 30K machine?
