What are you lifting that causes you to run out of lift capacity?
7' cutter and the tractor to run it puts you in a higher price category. You're at 5'. Next jump is 6'. 7' is another jump in cost.
Could you find someone to cut your field for the hay and then avoid the cost of upgrade?
I'm not sure how to reconcile your running out of lift capacity, but willingness to buy a larger tractor without a loader.
If you keep your L2800, then that's two tractors to maintain vs using it as a trade in.
TYM T574 retails in Middle Tennessee for about $30,000 with a loader. 55hp and more lift capacity.
