| I don't need the tractor for heavy lifting, and don't plan on regularly hauling round bales with it, though it may spend some time away from the house doing feeding chores if called upon (i.e. hauling 4x5 round bales, moving water troughs, etc. etc. etc.). The seller told me he uses the loader to move 4x4 bales with no problem (bermuda hay) and the 3 pt. is plenty strong for 4x6 bales, loader seemed to be too when he used it for 4x6's a couple of years ago he said. I basically want the tractor to run a tedder, rake hay, do some clean out work in a couple of tight cattle pens with a blade, bushhogging (comes with an MX6) in some areas that are hard to get in, put a 3 pt. sprayer on it.....basically just chore stuff that I don't want/can't justify spending 40k on a new tractor for.
I think it'll be about right size and horsepower-wise for all of that.
Just wondering about the price and issues with the tractor, specifically, someone once told me that JD swept front axles weren't very well built, true? | |
