Hello. I'm new and in need of advice from some of you "thousand posters" with lots of MF knowledge. I currently use a 59 Ford 601 for brush clearing/mowing out at our recreational farm. It's a great old tractor, been in the family since new, but I'm a mechanical idiot and I need something new that I won't have to fix. I had just about settled on a Cub Cadet 1854 (35 HP) with an FEL for $15,200 when I thought I better check with my local MF dealer just to make sure he didn't have anything better. Turns out he's got a 2004 40HP MF (can't remember the model number, 14 something I think) with a FEL for around $19,000. My big concern is quality and durability. I'll use the FEL maybe 10 times and probably mow 30 or 40 hours this summer. Can somebody please help me sort out MF quality vs. other brands, specifically Cub. Thank you in advance if you take the time to answer this.
