New farmer here. You guys have been a wealth of advice and likely don't even know it thru searching the archives. I tracked down and purchased my grandpas John Deere 720D this spring and after many headaches got her back up and running. Still some items wrong with her such as 3 point doesn't work, yet the aux hydraulics do for whatever reason. She will be my main tractor and ran the haybine (Hesston PT-10), Baler (NH 273) and JD 14' Disc without much trouble last year.
My question is I'd like to expand beyond my 40 acre farm. I would like something big enough to handle a small 4 row planter and tillage equipt to plant the neighbors 80 in row crops. It'd be nice to have a Cab with Heat/AC and a loader for all the odd jobs that come along with the farm. What makes the most sense? Smaller compact with loader for chores and loader type work and then get a bigger 40 series JD for tillage/row crop stuff. Or drop the coin on a 4WD 75HP minimum type with cab & loader. Just wondering what the general consensus would be.
