I have a 77 212 that worked great at my last place that was only a half acre.
Ill still use this for my snowblower and smaller areas.
I live in Minnesota just north of the twin cities.
I now have 3.5 acers and I will be mowing it all. I've spent 16 hours cutting down 3ft fields on a corner lot to make it possible. The last house owner didn't upkeep the yard at all. It's very flat ground and very little trees.
I'm looking to upgrade to possibly a 5' or 6' finishing type blade behind a tractor.
That's where I'm at rite now. I don't want to spend an arm and a leg for this. 3k is my budget for tractor and deck but I don't want to be fixing it all the time. I know this is a lot to ask for 3k but I believe it could be done.
If you'd recommend a good used tractor that could fit my needs that would be great. I've searched around about this but nothing seemed to stick out besides a ford N. but I know nothing about reliability with them.
