Hello!
I could use some advice on what tractor I should buy. I don't really know anything about them, other than I need one!
Really, I am new to this whole country side of life - I'd never even driven a tractor until I moved here! But, after spending all of last summer renting tractors to move dirt around, and trying to mow 11 acres with a riding lawn mower, I decided its time to get my own.
The land has no steep cliffs, but not entirely flat. Most of it is planted in coastal hay, but since I have horses on it, I am not worried about baling it. I just want to mow it. I'll want to be able to drag my round pen and grade my road base drive. I might put up some cross fences, so I might want an auger, but I am not sure. What are the best options for my money?
I am on a tight budget, and I don't want the salesperson to see a woman walk in and think 'sucker!' And, since I don't know jack about it, I don't want to pay too much for something I don't need.
So...any suggestions/advice?
Thanks!!
