Buying Advice Massey 1652 Tractor

[markrich]

The 1652 is made in Japan. I have the Power Shuttle and am very happy with it. I have almost 130 hours on it since January.
I have found that only the top 5 gears have any use. Mid range gear 4 is very slow, yet very powerful, without spinning the wheels.
I have really put this tractor through it's paces and it's held up and performed admirably. I'd be hard pressed to purchase anything other than a Massey.

Would you recommend the power shuttle over the hydrostatic?

Have you had any issues with the tractor?

Thanks

I highly recommend the Powershuttle over the hydrostat. Have 350 hours on hours, no issues whatsoever. The whine of the HST we heard from the sales office when we ordered ours was enough for us to order the Powershuttle.

The Powershuttle is so easy to use that it was a no brainer for us.

Thanks Will.

Will be stopping by the dealership later this week.

I agree with Will. The Powershuttle is so easy to use. I have had no issues with this tractor.

I agree that the mid range gears could be a little faster, but I completely love my dyna qps for shifting on the fly and loader work.
