When I say sole field tractor, what I mean is, if that's all you're buying the tractor for, keep looking, but if it's a dual purpose tractor, what it lacks in the tillage department, it will more than make up in the utility department.
If the one your looking at is the one on Tractor House in WI, then the 'downside' to this is the older style 6 point front disc and rim. It's very odd for a 1997 to have this, as most were switched over around 1995. Check the thickness of the disc and check for cracking around the lug nuts. I know the newer 8 bolt disc is VERY heavy. Over 1/2" on a 60 hp tractor. The up side to this tractor is the rear wheel weights. Kubota's tend to be a little light in the rear end, so this should help you stay planted on the ground.
