Subject: McCormick MTX tractors?


Can someone fill me in on these tractors or have experiences with them?

I'm looking for an everyday loader tractor to feed as well as assist putting hay up, a model in that 110-140 range. Main reason I want FWA, all I have is 2wd tractors and spring is no fun.

A JD guy myself I've been looking for a 50-55 series or a 10 series to no avail, still want lots if money with high hours and they are going like hot cakes with cattle prices good.

So ran across a local dealer promoting McCormicks and a zero percent finance plan, did my research and am intrigued by them as they got the 6.7 cummins in them, and appear to be simple and resale the old MX Case IHs which had a good reputation for reliability. Wouldn't mind buying one of those except good well taken care reasonable houred ones are not to be found.

So wondering overall about these and any first hand experiences? Don't wanna spend a lot on a POS. Do I expect it to be a Deere, no, but then again Deere isn't the Deere of old either and I can save myself a lot of dough. Plus I absolutely love Cummins engines, but I realize that is just one component, albeit a big one. But if the rest is undesirable unreliable crap it's not worth it either.
