Scottie, you didn't give us too much help, but I'll give you my 2 cents worth! I have a 1976 MF 255 diesel which is about 50 hp. I have about 1700 hours on this tractor which is low. I have 66 acres that I own and 40 rented and I also help a friend with his cattle! With a spear or fork I handle 1500 to 2000 lb hay bales without a lot of problems. I have a 7.5 foot Multi Purpose brand disk that does a great job with this unit! My bush hog is a 6 or 6.5 foot Ford 3PTH that works very well with this tractor! I use a 3PTH posthold digger with a 12 in auger and a 7 foot boxblade! I think this is a good all around tractor if you have a good MF dealer in your area. As others have said look at what your neighobors are using to get a feel for the area dealers. I don't have remote hydralics but would like to add them someday. I would also like to luck up on a good use frontend loader and a use 10foot pull type bush hog. This is a row crop tractor which gets you up out of the grass and dust, but it gets old real fast if you need to get on and off several times. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
