My brother and I have partnered up to run a cattle operation in East Texas. We have a '72 1466 in decent shape. No AC (doors off in summer!!), but plenty of power. All we will be doing is mowing pastures in summer with a 15 or 20' batwing, planting some cover crops in winter (light discing), and feeding hay in winter (will have hay custom baled or buy it). It hasn't had a loader on it up to now. We are considering trading or selling it for a newer tractor with a loader, but I don't think the dollars make sense. This is a pretty heavy tractor, and the weight sure does beat our roads out when it's wet. Questions- 1. What loaders will fit this tractor? Cost? 2. Sale value of this tractor? 3. Availability of a used loader? (Haven't looked yet, and can't stomach $5000 plus for the new ones.) 4. Reccomendations for a replacement tractor? Nothing around here but green or red or foreign (Kioti or Mahindra). Thanks for taking the time to reply, any info is appreciated. dcm
