Subject: What loader tractor would you choose?


Posted this in machinery talk, but you guys understand more.

MFWD loader tractor that will be used for everyday feeding chores, haying, etc.

John Deere 7810 with 11500 hours, power quad but no reverser, seems well taken care of. Uses 3 qts oil every 150 hours been told when doing lotta idling. Weighted down good in back with triple hydraulics. Tires in good shape.

05 Case IH MXU 125 with 5000 hours with reverser and 16x16 hi low power shift, really good shape. 2 SCVs, new front tired back about 50 percent. Uses no oil. Has turbo on it to 140 hp.

I see advantages to both, MXU is more luxurious and user friendly but is lighter and fewer hp. I've read a lot of horror stories though. The JD has high hours and concerned about little oil usage but appears to be good tractor.

Both are basically same price, which one is better and will give me more trouble free hopefully years full of service?

Thanks
