I have about 12 acres and i am looking at a Massey 231. I know little about this tractor.I would be cutting with a 6 ft. mower. I thought about a front end loader for it. What do you think?

I've owned one for the last 5 years and I'm very pleased with it. I use it for mowing, grading and tilling. It's a good no frills utiliy tractor.

It has one fault you need to consider if you're thinking about adding a loader. The hydraulic pump is not big enough and an auxilary pump must be installed. Price the pump if it doesn't have one. These could be expensive. You'll need to factor that in to the purchase price before you buy.
