Hi Katie and Welcome!!

It sounds like you have the right ideas about the 2 local dealerships in the area. One thing, I haven't seen mentioned that my Dad taught me a long time ago. Nothing you buy is any better than the availability of parts for it. That makes a lot of difference. I have a New Holland dealer within 5 miles of my house, therefore, I have a New Holland tractor. I pass it going to and home from work. Any time I need anything, I can just stop and get what I need.

Last time I bought I caught him as he was trying to clear out last years inventory and had a better price than all the other dealers within a 45 mile radius. Check the dealers first, you can learn a lot from them, what's available, and what you may need, more than what a private seller you may find. Pick up some brochures and don't be afraid to ask lots of ?????. Tell the dealer what you would like to do and have them show you different things they might have.

My New Holland dealer will let me have nearly anything on the lot to try out for a weekend, let me test drive. That makes a huge difference.

This sight can give you lots of hints and tips, but ultimately you have to live with what you buy.

Good luck,
Brad

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
