I looked at a couple of tractors today.
One was a Mahindra 5010 (geared) with loader for $24,900 (cash or financing). This one had a Tier 3 motor, which I think is a good thing? I liked the tractor a lot. When I get closer to a decision, I'll go back and drive it around (it was in the showroom).
Other one I looked at was a LS U5030 with loader for $27,500 (also T3 engine). I also really liked that tractor. What it offered over the Mahindra was: 5 more HP, self-leveling bucket, 1 more hydro remote, adjustable lift arms, shuttle-shift. Not sure if they are worth $2600 to me, though.
How do the prices sound?
Any thoughts on the better deal?
