Hello all...new to the site and new to tractors. Would really appreciate your help on a couple of questions:
There are a number of dealers around that still have unsold 2007 models, with full warranty and pricing seems to be very good because they have sitting for 2 years. So what concerns should I have, what to look for, etc. It seems it is not uncommon to see 2 year old tractors with low hours with good prices, which means they have been sitting around as well. Thoughts?
I have 35 acres at 7600 ft in elevation, very rocky and for the most part level. Looking for general maintenance, need to move a lot of rock, some small boulders (we had to blast 1/4 mile to get ultilities to the house), remove stumps, dead timber, snowplow, etc. No horses, but you never know. I have been looking at 50hp tractors ( Kubota L5240 w/ FEL and BH90). Most folks around here seem to get buy with 30-40 hp. What are your recommendations?
Thanks in advance for help,
Steve
