I owned two MF2625 tractors, one was an 8x2 MFWD and the other was an 8x8 shuttle MFWD. I definitely would not recommend this tractor. The first 2625 was the 8x2 and by 7 hours had already developed a leak on the side of the engine, also had a leaking oil filter which was easily replaceable, but still only 7 hours. I traded the 8x2 for two reasons: 1. I planned on putting a loader on. 2. On the 8x2(which is live pto) it was always a pain to put the pto on, it almost had to be forced into position. Now the 8x8 was the biggest piece of junk I've bought. After only 30 hours of being "babied" the tractor developed a hydraulic leak, an oil leak from the crankshaft pulley seal(the whole front of the tractor was taken apart to fix this), and a radiator leak not sure where this leak originated from. I have since sold the tractor and I'm disappointed in Massey Ferguson for there lack of quality control. I've talked to three different dealers and they all tell me the 2600 series are having problems just like I discussed. I love Massey Ferguson tractors, but not the 2600 series. I would save my money and buy the 2600HD series before investing in a money pit 2615 or 2625. The HD series is pretty much a 500 series with a few more options, they're made in brazil not India like the 2600 series. Well I hope this helped some, and good luck with your purchase.
