You might want to have a look at compact-tractors.com if you haven't already. I was looking at a bunch of their tractors, and I was impressed at their selection. Prices seem a bit high, but they say that they totally refurbish the tractors before selling them. I haven't bought anything from them - has anyone else?

My SHIBAURA SD3000D WITH A NEW 5' BUCKET cost me $10,000. I have been to several tractor dealers around central Florida and they told me I got a pretty good deal. It looks new, runs and pull's great. I have had one problem with it and that was my own fault. By the way the other tractor dealer's had very similar tractor's costing $1000 to $1800 more than I paid

A Mahindra 2810 fits your criteria at 28 hp and about 3100 lbs. not including 60" loader. Will lift and manuver a bucket FULL of dirt and remain stable with no counterweight. I run a 5' bush hog and a 50" tiller and other misc items. Rear 3 pt is rated about 2100 lbs. My old Bush Hog has been replated with 3/16 all over and the 2810 doesn't balk at all. I got the HST. Got about 50 hours on it now and enjoyed every one of them.

Several thousand $ less than some other colors.

Check out Shady1701's profile. Says he is supposed to be deleted. No more posts after 10-17-03. I wonder what happened? Reckon he is still reading this?
