What do I need

[mffarmall]

I have 6 acres with blow sand. Would a 1533 or a GC2310 I need bucket to do work around my land. And I have many attachments for my MF-50. I asked the dealer and he said that I did not want anything smaller then my 50. Any ideas. If I can get a tractor that will do 90 of what I need done and save money great otherwise I don't want to waste time.

It would depend on if you are keeping your MF 50 and what you want to do with the new tractor. I personally think that a 2310 would be big enough for 6 acres, but some people have pretty big tractors with small acreage. What kind of jobs do you want to do with the new tractor? Why does your dealer think that you need a tractor as big as your 50?

I have 10ac and my 1533 is great for it (could be to big I guess). Me? If I had a big tractor I could never go smaller then what I already had, "unless" you are keeping the 50, then you could use both.

Just like Jerry said... What are your plans for the new tractor and why wont the 50 work for you, no FEL?

The GC2310 is good worker for its size, some of the pics I see I wonder how it dose the things it dose.

Consider a 431. It's a modern version of the 135 for the most part. You'd have equal or better power than the 50, better fuel economy, better hydraulics, brakes, steering, and easier to operate controls. And you'd still have a tractor that wasn't much different to operate than the 50. All this at a relatively fair price.
