Buying Advice Tractor Shopping

The more I look into the Deutz, it "seems" on paper to be great. Even down to 2 standard rear remotes, solid ground speed, canopy, not just ROPs, and excellent 3 point lift. Its also a good 1000 lbs heavier than its competitors, at $35k. The loader seems pretty "mild" at 1765 lbs; but it comes with 3rd function already.

Most of the grading is with a blade, York rake and box blade. Loader work is mainly picking up logs for my little mill, gravel, and other odd loads.
I sure do appreciate your help! Thanks again.

My neighbor had one a few years back. It was a 30 or 35 HP one. He had nothing but issue after issue with that thing. Not sure I want one.
I’ll see what they have. Thanks

I felt the same way until I looked at the 4540/4550 series. Around 6800lb old school construction all steel no frills the way they built tractors back in the 80's. Built the same basic model for years time tested. On the other hand if you are looking for a lot of frills that are only covered under the warranty at most for 2 yrs this would not be the tractor for you.
