Question: Do you buy new or used & why.
In 6 weeks we are moving to our new house. 3.5 acres, long driveway lots of landscaping to be done. In short I need a bigger tractor (SCUT or CUT) Looking at MF GC2300, Kubota BX 2350, B7510, JD 2305, 2320.
New prices range from 12,200 to 18K I hate to spend money. But, I believe this is a one time lifelong purchase. Hopefully I'll wear out before the tractor does. Did you buy new or used? Do these small tractor depreciate enough for it to make sense ot buy after a few hours? Or, if there too much of a tradeoff & risks buying someone elses' unit. for the record, I've purchased 1 new thing in my life all the others were used. Give a newbee some advice please.
Thanks & Happy New Year!
