without a FEL I think it's about $2k too high...with a loader it is a fair price given the condition... but I am unsure of the value of the front blade...

front blade is over $2000 new.Used tractors are expensive here in michigan.

I had a B7510 (pretty much the same tractor) and it was a great machine. The things you list will be good fit for the tractor. Depending on how much snow you get you might want to look into a 50-60" rear snowblower. Keep the blade on the front for smaller snows and use the snowblower for the big storms. The price sounds fair by standards here in Maine, but not a killer deal for sure.

I have a B7500 I bought 7 yrs ago. I change the fluids and filters more often than required, and have never worked on the tractor once since purchased new.
It has started first time every time except needed a new battery after 6 yrs.
The only problem I had was when it got over 100 outside, I noticed an occassional jerkiness of the steering. I'm sure hydraulic temps were too high.
I started using Super UDT fluid and problem disappeared.

The 7500 is a nice tractor,but im leaning towards the deere 4010.I like there 2 pedal hydro and the loader would be great.I dont think the 3hp diffrence would matter to much sense most of the brush hogging i do i keep 3ft or less and the ground i want to till is soft.

I paid around that for a B7500 with a FEL/MMM combination this spring . Money well spent I am really enjoying the tractor . I bought the tractor from a local dealer with a good reputation so that factored into my decision .

Just a note when you remove the Fel ( or in your case the blade ) the tractor becomes a really nice mowing machine ! Power steering in great !

What year? Price sounds high with no FEL. I have a b7610 and b7800 4x4s. Wheelbases are short and make for rough rides on uneven terrain. Plenty of power though. Also FEL makes good ballast for the bush hog- without FEL you might be doing wheelies.

Im not sure what year.They only made them for 4 or 5 years.The deere is gone already so looks like the 7500.There is another one with 560 hrs no blade,has mmm for $7,250.Nice used tractors are $$ in michigan.I would buy out of state from a dealer off tractorhouse but have done that before and have been screwed over.
