Hi guys, new member here. I have been lurking around here for a while, and figured it's time to get the action. You guys here offer great advice.
I'm looking for a new or like new(ish) wheel machine for the farm. I have 60 acres under till, but that is leased to a farmer. I have water-way maintenance to perform (6' woods brush bull) and snow plowing (with bucket) and general lifting requirements (FEL). The new tractor will on occasion pull a three bottom 14" 3-point moldboard and good sized disc harrow(drawbar).
So far this is what I had in mind (in no particular order):
All 4x4, rear cast iron weights and FEL
Also looking for a draw bar, canopy, snow blade and aux rear hydraulic ports.
R4 tires are a must.
I'm currently still shopping for prices. A local NH dealer is currently the most economical.
There is not a 5065E or Workmaster anywhere nearby to look at. I stopped by a local kubota, and really liked the machines I saw, but no M7040.
I have reviewed the tractor specs throughly, but still not sure which one would fit my needs the best.
Any information the experiences and knowledge of TBN is greatly appreciated.
I'm looking more for info on build quality at a reasonable (to me) price.
P.S. I have some great dealers around in my area, so dealer service should not be an issue with any of the brands.
