    New or slightly Used? Specific situation

    After several threads trying to figure out exactly what I needed, and evaluating a few used tractors, I finally pulled the trigger, and the practically new, but definitely new to me 2555 with backhoe, box blade, and rake will be delivered Saturday! I debated much bigger tractors, and was dead...

    Help me pull the trigger... M6040

    Looking at a VERY gently used 2013 M6040. Looks new, <80 hours, very close to me. Planning on going to look at it in more detail tomorrow, and spend some time with it. I have been debating the right tractor for me for the 80 acres we purchased, and this seems big enough to do 90%+ of anything...
