Buying Advice Used Massey 1643 or New TYM T454

[JFahey]

There’s a 5 year old Massey 1643 cab tractor with a FEL on Craigslist for about $4,000 less than a brand new TYM T454 with about the same options. The Massey has under 700 hours on it. Looks like its in nice shape. Rears are loaded. I want a tractor that I’ll have for the next 30 years. It needs to last, like the old tractors do. What’s the best option here? Thanks for any and all advice. Joe

Has anybody here put a descent amount of hours on a TYM tractor? Are they going to be long lasting tractor like the Massey should be?
