Default Re: Ford 1710 Price??? COnsidering buying

I'd say $7,000 is a fair price. If you search tractorhouse.com they have quite a few and any with 4X4 are llisted right around that price without attachments and some with out loaders. I paid more for mine without any attachments and I really enjoy mine. The 1710 rates 20 hp at the drawbar, 24 HP at the PTO, and 27 HP engine. I think some parts for these tractors are hard to get or expensive but they are parts for major repairs like a cracked engine block.

I've run a 5 ft tiller behind mine and it handles it well. Also a 5 field cultivator which it handles very well with the 4X4 engaged it can go as deep as the cultivator will go. Hydraulics are a little slow on the loader but nothing that is annoying
