If you happen to bump into one that's a good deal, OK. However, loaders are seldom offered for sale separate of the tractor, except when new. It is generally a lot cheaper to buy a used tractor and loader together. Plus buying the loader first may lock you into a certain model tractor when you may find a better deal on a different model. I know there are a lot of them running around with loaders, but Ford N's are pitiful loader tractors. The weight of the loader is real tough on the front end, they don't have power steering and the weight distribution to the rear wheels is very poor (no traction).
