searching for a tractor and have run into a few Kiotis here lately - specifically a DK55 (and the MF dealer now also just starting carrying them)...after reading a little and comparing a few numbers ---a couple of questions have popped up.. 1. Compared to say a kubota M4900 the hp is about the...

I know that there have been a couple of these threads before - but here goes Found a JD 5400 4X4 FEL 1800 hrs on ebay ...after evaluating the auction...(it even had the phone # of the seller in the description) i decided to watch the auction and contact the seller...talked to him for about 10...

Looking at a MF 451 and I had read (I think on here) that someone had mentioned that people had been having problems with the 451 model (and not the 431/461...etc...tractor is a simple little 4wd model with not many hours....I would not expect a Massey to have any problems (from past experience)...

I (think) I know I little about tractors - but these ZTRs are "new" to me - I have a JD LX279 and at some point am going to sell it and go for something a little faster.....like a lot of the people on here - I will be looking used - yet what type of hours can I expect to be "good" hours on a...

Was looking at a 5105 recently and noticed that the rear axles had been extended away from the housing, about three inches each, and was taken aback at first. The owner said they did this for "some" gardening they did...must have been a big garden...but of course now the front and back tires are...

I have looked for some loader comparisons on here to no avail so here is my question...concerning loaders for utility size tractors. What has been everyone's experience with the non-tractor-brand loaders (Bushhog aka greatbend, Koyker, Quike, ---others?) you can look at specs all day, and there...

Just wondering if anyone has any tips on any decent auctions in the ArkLaTex region that would be pretty good to go and try and buy a 40-60 hp tractor. I have been to about 5-6 over the past few months (on weekends) with no luck---- I heard -from here- about the Noon Day tractor auction in...

For starters - I am like everyone else I want the most bang for my dollar, I just don't really like spending a whole lot of 'em - I've got about 30 acres of hay pasture that will be bushhogged at some point (it is being hayed currently - only have to mow about 3-4 acres now - but you never know...

Want a tractor. Need a tractor. They are expensive. quick and simple..have approx. 30 acres (hay field) - have never owned a "compact tractor" - always been around 60-85 hp tractors in the hay field or bushhogging (don't need 'em and can't afford 'em :o ) I've been looking pretty hard for...

Simply put I have found a TN 65 a few hours away from where I live ('03, 2wd with a couple of hundred hours, and a FEL, priced in the low to mid teens). I am familiar with these tractors (although the last Ford / NH owned was a 7740, since owned / operated green, orange, and 2 shades of red...
