RE: [RC] New/used tractors - Jim HollandOoops...bought my tractor 5 years ago. The BX2200 has been replaced by the BX2230. They have added "Cruise Control"! Kewl! http://www.kubota.com/f/Products/bx1830-2230.cfm Jim, Sun of Dimanche+, and Mahada Magic -----Original Message----- From: ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ridecamp- owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Paul Latiolais Sent: Tuesday, June 29, 2004 11:16 AM To: ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [RC] New/used tractors 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 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
