In NorCal, you should be checking Craigs List. There are always tractors
on it. If it is a good machine at a good price, it will be gone fast. Be
prepared to go see a unit on the day it becomes available....don't wait
til the weekend. I bought one tractor on CL, but have sold several on
Ebay after not getting enough local interest in the Bay Area.
That said, $2500 won't get you much. Modern capabilities like 4WD,
power steering, wet brakes, and hydrostatic trannies will rarely be
found at this price. Not to mention repairs. Only handy owners should
consider machines that need work and/or have little support available.
Think long and hard before you consider an unusual tractor or a Chinese one.
