Hi all,
I'm new to the site and tractors for the most part. I have ~5 acres and horses and looking for a tractor to mow, move snow, and manure. My limited budget of around $5K has led me to a Ford 1700 with a loader for $5850. They say everything works and that they re-did the head. It is MFWD. Is this a good price and do I need to worry about getting parts in the future? I've read on the other forum that getting parts for the 1700 is pretty hard. I don't want to make the investment if I can't fix the thing in the future.
Thanks.
