Central Minnesota
We had a 5120 MFD at one point. Was a good little tractor. Service and go. We bought it used with a ton of hours on it, and put quite a few more on it. If my memory is working correctly this morning, I don't think we ever even put a battery in it. And I think we had it for around 15 years. Maybe even more. Always had it on the rock picker in the spring, and then would take the loader off, and it ran a 13x71 westfield auger in the fall. Open station, so you could easily reach the PTO and throttle, and key all of the time. Was a handy little tractor until the end. Did have some hydraulic problems towards the end, and had to spend a little money on it. There was some spring in the hydraulics that was discontinued from case, so one had to be made up. But I wouldn't shy away from the one your looking at. At 2900 hours, if that's original and not tampered with, that one will be beggin to get some good old use out of it.
