Hello friends.
I have been searching for another tractor to use for haying my 10 acres, and I have come across this one as a leading candidate. I was wondering if anyone can lend some insight as to the quality and reliability of this model, as well as if the pricing seems to be in the correct range.
The intended use will be to power a New Idea Cut/Ditioner mower, a New Holland small square baler and a ground drive rake. The land is approx 10 acres (possibly leasing an additional 20 next season) of very flat (3 ' max deviation) Illinois alfalfa/clover/grass mix.
Tractor description:
CASE 685 2 WHEEL DRIVE FARM TRACTOR, 61 HP 4-239 diesel, 8F-4R transmission, canopy, 2 hydraulic circuits, 3 point hitch, 540 RPM PTO, good condition, approximate weight 5,720 lbs., 1987, B020700 series
Asking: $5950.

Thanks!
