We are getting ready to purchase a new (Used) mid-size tractor and are comparing John Deere, Kobuto, and New Holland. Other than the colors, is one brand that much better than the others?:confused2:

Buy the ones that fits you the best.. So go look and drive at all of them.

Dealer support is very important.

I heard this and did not listen.

Buy 2 sizes larger that you think you need

Get a Front end loader

Get 4x4

I moved your thread to the Buying/Pricing/Comparisons Forum.

Welcome to TBN!!!

I do suggest you consider Deere or Kubota first...good dealer networks.

Spoken like a true NH salesman...
NH makes some good tractors and ag equipment, but never did too well in the CUT market...

Have a look at the Kioti, well built heavy tractor.

You're getting good advice (opinions?). I even agree with some of them[grin]. Stan hit a tender spot with the "buy bigger" comment. It doesn't seem there's a lot to be scared of if you stick with one of the major brands. I've had good luck with Cub, Ford and Kubota. Hope to drag a Bobcat CT335 home next week, but just in case that falls through we're headed out to look at a B7800 this afternoon. Still waiting for more contact info from a guy with a Massey Ferguson as well. The B7500 is almost perfect but sometimes I'd like another 5 or 10 HP. The Bobcat is at the upper end of size for us.
