Subject: RE: Who makes the best compact tractor, fel, backhoe?



Springfield, MN		I am running a Farmall 50B CVT with loader, backhoe and use a Loftness 7 foot snow blower. In just over 2 years I have 580 hours on the meter. I have had some minor electrical problems early on but all seem to be fixed now. It starts good. I like the roomy cab easy to get into. Air and heater work well. For my use I want the cab. It will go through a 8 ft high door. Last year I bought a tree/brush puller and it is worth it also.

Prior to this I had a NH DX25D. You want a tractor at least this big to run a backhoe. I have extended a lot of tile runs with such an outfit. With these you need to get off and get into the tractor to move forward. The backhoes for these tractors mount on a framework underneath for strength. Easy to put on.

Does Case still make this compact tractor, I have not checked that out. I just like the 50B and use it for everything. I have even pulled a 300 bu full gravity box from field to dryer.
