Thanks for the advice. A 100 horse tractor
around here in decent shape is less than 8K.
That's a lot less than the normal price for a
fairly new diesel tractor like my little Ford
around here. I have just been comparing
brands. FYI, I want a bigger tractor to reduce
my time in the field. As much as I enjoy it, the
farming is my hobby, not my primary job. This
clay soil is playing HELL with my little Ford,
too. It's all it can do to pull a two bottom plow
through it. It took more than 50 hours to till and
plant a 20 acre section into wheat. Don't mind
the work but can't afford the time. Most guys
pull a seven shank disc chesel around here
with about 100hp.
