One thing about it,if you look around for something nice in a used tractor,it won't loose much value over the years. This whole idea of buying a Deere because "I know it'll hold it's value",well,they all will. Just the initial investment will be less in the first place on other brands.
I have three tractors that are in a sense,interchangable on most jobs. I've got the Oliver 1850 that I paid $5700 for twenty years ago,a White 2-105 that I gave $9000 for last year and a White 2-135 that I traded for 15 years ago,but they were asking $10,000 for that one. Add that all up and what could you get in a new one for those dollars in any brand? How long would you wait to get one fixed in peak season if it broke down? I can tell you this,I bought a new one in 1981. It needed transmission work in peak season in the spring of 91. I didn't have a backup. I had to rent one by the hour. There's a whole lot more peace of mind in knowing that all I have to do is pull a draw pin and tow something out of the way then hook something else on if I have to so I can get the job done. I make a living selling cattle,not by driving a certain new tractor.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
