Wallis, TX

Resale on the 7060 is poor because farmers like me that owned them sunk way too much money fixin' them all the time.  I had mine for 10 years, an engine, transmission (10 grand in 1981), alternators every year, several compensator valves (for hydraulic pump), A/C didn't cool worth a darn and engine always ran warm, even with new radiator.  Add to that the stupid door that would alway fall on you with the slighest gust of wind (almost took off son's finger once), the cramped cab, no way to adjust the 3 pt drop speed from factory and the jerky shift on the tranny.  Give me a couple more minutes and I'll think of some more reasons why they are cheap.  Either of the OP's choices are better.
