I am thinking bout buying a new tractor or skid steer. I am really on the fence my ideal price is 15000 cash for something.
I currently have a Massey 165 with loader gas tractor..Runs but is a pain to use.
Have old case dozer not running right now
Old NH skid steer wheeled not running at the time.
I am trying to get away from this old stuff that I spend more time getting running that using
I have JD zero turn that is used weekly in the summer.
I have borrowed my buddys NH 45hp compact and was nice to use but seemed lack something.. May weight or power not sure.
I am planning on trying to reclaim overgrown fields most ... They have not been touched in 15 years.. It is all junk trees mostly ceder and small oak with alot of briars, Hedge bushes.
I have rented CAT SS tracked before and worked well.. Just hate to rent for month for 2500 that could go to my new equipment.
I have drove a Kubota 50HP utility thought it was a little big to do any yard work with. Drove 25hp at same dealer seemed good size for the yard but lacking to move any brush.
I thought about 4/1 bucket for the front of the tractor to help but should I got Skid Steer and sale all my other stuff?
Tried to hire a few people to clear and they wanted 1500 per acre.
Thoughts. Am I missing something I saw the mulching heads for Skid Steers I dont think a tractor to use one of those too heavy.
I have seen some deals on used Kioti and Montanta around here.
