I'm looking into doing commercial brush cutting this year, and would need to buy a tractor for that. I want a fairly simple machine, don't need a hydro transmission or anything fancy, just something that'll get the job done for not huge amounts of money. I would expect a ~40 hp tractor and five foot brushhog would be what I need. Right now I'm leaning towards buying new, because I'm going have to finance whatever I buy, and I might as well get a warranty and the peace of mind of a new machine. The tractor I've most seriously considered is the John Deere 4005, but that's just based on the spec sheet and the fact that the JD dealer is closest to me, and I don't know enough about the various makes to know if that's the best machine for my money or not. Any advice would be appreciated, though I don't plan on making an immediate decision, I'm just hoping to get some more stuff to think about as summer gets closer.
