I really need some advice . I have the oppurtunity to purchase a Farmtrac 360 DTC with a FEL-Box blade-Grade blade-5 ft. HD shredder and a older 5 ft disc, the tractor only has 320 hrs and except for normal paint wear on the bucket looks almost new.The asking price was more than I wanted to invest but after several visits the price has come down to $9K.Searching the net I've found several places to buy parts and three that also service them.
My concern is that I'm 63 and have never operated a tractor,and it's been a little over fifty-two years since I was evev on one! I've actually been looking on Craigslist and everything within 200 miles, really would rather have a green/red/orange or blue but haven't been able to find a seemingly better deal and I feel good about this one. Just looking for some advice from people with experience.
I will be doing very minor landscaping(as I have no experience) and maybe some garden preparation.I hope also to be able to supplement my income by doing food plot prepration and trail clearing for people on deer leases. Any and all comments will be greatly received. Thanks in advance for your time to read this post.
