Well it depends. That is about the right size tractor for your operation. You could get by with a smaller one but it is nice to have the extra power once in a while. The price is high unless the tractor is in pristine condition. When buying this old iron we need to keep in mind that if something major should happen it will get pricey. I'm not saying you shouldn't buy the tractor. Just keep the idea in the back of your mind that you COULD have some pricey repairs. Lets hope not. If you really like the tractor and you don't want to spend much more than that I think you should try to get the price down a little and go for it. Spending money on the loader would be a non issue in this case. You can pretty much always get your money out of a good loader. It doesn't have to stay with the tractor. Personally I don't care for that type of tractor for loader work. A little awkward and hard shifting when doing a lot of backing up and going forward.
