[RC] New/used tractors - Paul Latiolais


I need advice on tractors to manage horse pasture. I finally convinced my wife that we can't manage 6 acres without a tractor.


QUESTIONS: What is best value? What add-ons do I need?

NEW VERSUS USED: My wife thinks we ought to buy new. That might be best, if interest rates are good on them. I have not done mechanical work since I was a young guy and had to. I even have the shop work on my lawn mowers, so NEWER is probably best.

EQUIPMENT: So far on my list I have: Front loader, PTO, 4-wheel drive (it is wet here in the winter) , brush hog (or other mower attachment), manure spreader?

What about horse power?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

-Paul
