1999 5610s

[CaptainQ]

I am looking at a 1999 5610s with 141 hrs. on it. It belonged to a church it has a 2426 qt bushhog loader and they want 12900. Is this a good price and is this a good tractor or are there weak spots that i need to look out for. It has a cover and two svc.The only neg. is it has always been out in the weather and it has been on consignment for 2 years at a small out of the way new holland dealer in a big city. I want a tractor to hay with.

Thanks,

Carl

Buy it!! The closest thing I can find online is a 1999 with a Ford-NH 7210 loader, 450 hours for $19,950. The tractor is 62 PTO HP. This is a strong tractor. The Bush Hog loaders are very strong as well, and in many cases, out spec the manufacturer's loaders.

The XX10S tractors are a nice bunch. I own a 7610s and love it.. same manual covers the 56/66/7610s.. etc.

Those hours are so low it ain't even broke in yet.

If you go to places like tractorhouse, US Farmer or equipment locater in addition to the NH site you can see what others are asking for this machine.

Id say though this is an excellent deal *if* the machine was cared for. Being out in the weather certainly doesnt help but if they took the time to keep up w/ maintenance it should be OK. Was looking at this tractor for my hay operation but at the time all I could find had real high hrs. The 2 remotes are a good thing!
