I'm trying to buy a used farm tractor before Jan 1st (gotta write something off haha) and I am having no luck finding anything good. I guess I'm pretty picky...
I'm trying to find a 2wd 120-150hp Ford or New Holland tractor, from the 1990's or 2000's. Maybe something mid-80's if it's low hours and clean. (good luck with that!)
I've checked on these classifieds, with no luck. I've checked tractor house, and fast line. I'm running out of ideas of where to look. It seems every tractor I look at has 6000+ hours on it, and they still want over $50,000 for it. Call me crazy, but I consider 6000+ to not be a "used" tractor. I consider it a "used up" tractor. I know there are lots out there that will go to 10,000 hours, but, when you get up near $60,000 for a tractor with that many hours, it's just $15,000 more for something brand new off the lot.
I guess there aren't a lot of 2wd tractors out there. I really don't like the 4wd ones. They have their strong points, but, it's more than I need, and I priced out front tires in popular sizes and it looks like I'd have to remortgage the farm to replace worn ones. call me crazy, I just don't see the benefit. If it's wet enough to need 4wd, chances are, it's too wet to be out in the field in the first place. I'm rambling... regardless...
Does anyone have a hot spot to check for used tractors? Thanks

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
