Any Farmers in CP kingdom? Need tractor and gator recommendations!
Anybody want FREE horse poop? Good for your gardens!

We are adding to our "petting zone" as wife wants horses and a DONKEY!

I am not moving all that manure by hand or in the back of my F150.

Soooooo, we are learning about tractors and gator-type equipment.

From what little I've learned so far, I'm leaning towards a 30HP to 40 HP tractor. Why the hell are they so expensive????

1) Why is John Deere more expensive that the other brands?

2) What is your favorite brand?

3) What web sites do you follow for good deals on equipment? Craigslist? Tractorhouse?

4) Any advice about buying a tractor or gator?

If all you're doing is moving manure, buy a skid steer. Find an old Case 1845.

John Deere you pay for the name..they are good tractors and you do get very good service if you buy brand new

I love Case IH..grew up with them and have always ran them..I have a Case Maxxum 110 and 140 both with a loader..great tractors

Look on TractorHouse..that is where I got my 140 from..if you find a tractor you like..research that tractor by running a search on that type only and see how the price stacks up

If you go UTV get a Polaris Ranger..a 900 XP is what I have and it is used everyday..it makes chores so much easier

If you are looking to buy a tractor it is just like buying a car..look at the outside of the tractor to see how the body looks..a nice body normally means it was kept inside and not beat on..normally..check to see how much lug is left on the tires..check out how many hours it has..find out what kind of maintenance it has had done on it..buy from a dealer if possible

I'm not really up on the utility tractor market. The only tractor I have that is roughly your size is older than I am, but I can answer your questions.

1. Deere used to be significantly higher quality than everything else. It's really not anymore. The cabs, at least on the big equipment is better, but that's about it. If you're looking at older Deere units, they're higher because they were better. Engine, transmission, hydraulics were better through the early 90's.

2. My brand is Deere but it is because I'm 5 miles from the deere dealer and 50 from a red dealer, and incomprehensibly far from everything else.

3. Tractorhouse is the most comprehensive. But you can find some deals from auctions like Purple Wave and Big Iron. I'd suggest purple wave. They're pretty upfront with conditions.

4. It all depends on what you're wanting to spend as to what you're going to end up with.

a.Get one from whatever color you can get parts for. Service too if you're not mechanically inclined.

b. Make sure you get one with a loader and make sure there are multiple hydraulic outlets so you can put a scraper on with your loader. Or mower. Or whatever.

c. Pay attention to ballast. Shit is heavy. Don't flip the bitch over or dump it on it's nose.

d. A few years ago, Deere started offering ones that were all mechanical. No electronic control units or computers, depending on what you want, that might be where its at.

e. If you can afford it, get a cab. Seriously. If not, buy a cheapie and start saving for one. There is nothing better than moving shit and mowing with a cab. And not much worse than without.

f. Don't cheap out on hydraulics. There is no replacement for hydraulic flow, no matter the HP.

g. If you're going used, and you buy one from the south, quadruple check that bastard for rust.

If you have some specific questions on a model, I can tell you what to look for.

Good luck.

I can vouch for Polaris UTV in my line of work we have really put them in places probably not recommended. Also have used Club Car and Kawaski. CC is excellent and polaris equal. The Kaw was a bit more maintenance and had less clearance something the Deere Gator shares if thats a problem.

On UTVs I probably wouldn't go with a Deere. There are dudes far more qualified than me, but we have a Gator and I don't like it.

You do not need or want a cab on a tractor that's rated 40 and below hp.

Big tractors in small spaces suck.

4 wheel drive

A bucket with teeth

I have a m5400 kubota

Parts are extremely high through a dealer but aftermarket parts are up to 80% less.

I don't give a shit about a brand( they are all metric these days) as much as if the equipment can do the job for what I can afford. The end

Can you really get anything moved with 40 HP? The smallest I've used is 60, and it kills me.

I'm really not up on utility tractors.

It would take a shit ton of loads.

When I bought mine I went for one with a high load rating. Edit( that I could afford and turn around in tight spots)

Tbh the dude is probably better off gettin as skid steer

Rabbit's are cool, but horrible pets. Like overgrown Guinea Pigs.
