I was amazed at how these compact tractors hold their value. I first looked at a 2004 MF and it was advertised at $16000. I thought about it, called back and the unit had been sold.
Next I looked at a 2008 and it was advertised for $18000. I asked the dealer how much 2004 and 2008 tractors would have cost new, and the answer was $16000 and $18000, so they seem to suffer no depreciation at all.
So I bought a new 2010 for $18900.
I've got two years of landscaping to do, so I figure that I'll do that and then sell the thing. It should be worth what I paid for it.

irvingj. Ditto on your comment. I bought it to tame three acres
of neglected property. Once I've got that completed I have no
plans of getting rid of it. Once you get it where you want it there are always the chores.
