5 years ago, we purchased a horse boarding facility /farm.
It came with the IH 624 tractor.
We are looking at purchasing something new or new to us. (0% financing is pretty appetizing though)
I am looking for a suitable machine based on the information below.
Current Tractor
The Farm
Main Tasks
Must Haves
Would be nice to have
Closest dealerships
Preferred Brands (In no particular order)
Preliminary Budget
$60 000.00ish
I guess I am looking for advice on make/model/size.....any help is greatly appreciated!
