New idea 5406 on MF 1540

[RyanL]

Hey guys, i was just wanting an opinion here, i seen a New idea 5406 disk mower in the paper which is 5 foot 6 inch and requires 30hp and weighs 1100lbs. I am wanting a disk mower to run on my 1540 4wd Mf with loader. I am currently using a NH 451 sickle mower, and using a roll bar hay rake, and a MF 12 square baler with thrower. I was wanting to be able to run this disk mower with the same tractor also, but i can use it on the old case 800 if needed. I guess the big decieding factor is the price for the mower is only $1000 and new they cost around $6000. So i was just wanting to see what you guys thought.

Thanks Ryan
