Im going to look at a used JD 2520 this weekend. I have been doing reseach and reading a lot here. This will be my first tractor and Im going alone. What should I be looking at on the tractor and what questions should I ask?
I think the 2520 is a good choice for what I am planning. We have a small horse farm on 9 acres in southeast Massachusetts. 4 acres is grass and the rest is woods and swamp. The tractor will be used to cut the grass, spreading/leveling sand, moving firewood, some brush cutting for riding paths, working a food plot and snow plowing around the barn/paddocks and our 800+ driveway. Im looking for something with at least a front loader. I will add the attachments I want when it is in the budget.
Any advise and suggestions would be appreciated.
