Doesn't matter what you are purchasing. Always compare the price new vs. used. To get a feel for real market value. You can sink $5000 into a used machine repairs real quick and only have a 50+ year old used machine worth $2500.

Live pto, power steering, hydraulic brakes, differential lock, high pressure/high volume hydraulics, live hydraulics, remote hydraulic connectors with scv, rops(roll over protection system), 12V factory electrics,three point hitch and a real bolted in place drawbar.

The 2305 has more power than the N series and with the standard equipment M4WD. It will drag an N series tractor around like a toy on loose or wet ground.
