I am looking to purchase a tractor come spring of 2020, which is when funds will be available to pay cash and save a little money. My main question is when should I start going and talking to dealers to get prices?
Looking to spend between 15-20K. I know any quotes given today will change but it would still give me an idea of how much to save and which tractor would be the best deal. I live in central Iowa and have a Deere, Kubota, Massy, Kioti, TYM, and Branson dealer all within 70 miles. Deere and Kubota are the closest within 15 miles and Kioti is the furthest at 70 miles. Planning on a 25-30hp. So far I really like the Kubota B2650 and the Kioti CK2510 and CK2610 or maybe the 3 series Deere but actually haven稚 gone and driven anything yet.
I own 18 acres that is pretty much all timber so would like a tractor that can still fit into small areas. Main use would be maintaining 700 foot driveway, maintaining trails, general loader work, and some brush hogging around a pond and food plot. Tractor would not be used for finish mowing so I don稚 need that but would like loaded tires and a 3rd function value. Any information about brands, sizes, price or anything else I should be thinking about would be greatly appreciated.
