Bill, You stated that you wanted 70+ horses! OK heres my $.02. 1st More hp is better than less. It can be bought with less dollars than the smaller tractors, Also keeps you out of the weekend/hobby/suburban/would be farmer market class of tractors! With that said here goes JD 4010,4000,4020,4320,,4030,4230 will work nicely IH 706,806,756,856,766,(966 ..My baby) all will fill your bill nicely. Others, there are Fords,MMs Masseys that will fill your bill. Finding one that hasn't been ABUSED, Road hard and put up wet will be the trick!! You said all the major flavors of tractors had dealerships close by. Talk to the shop manager see whoes tractors to stay away from and whoes tractors when traded in are ready to go back to the field. Do your home work! Its just like buying a used pickup. If it looks ok drives ok, then maybe so. If it looks like it has been abused, and you get a knot in your stomach ,better just walk..No run away fast! Hope this helps. Good Luck, John A.
