[QUOTE="seth, post: 423964, member: 3210"] I have a JD 2550 (no cab) that I purchased new in the early 80's. It has almost 12,000 hours and the engine has never been touched. It has a JD self leveling loader (245 I think) and has been started alomost every day. The down sides to it are the loader - it isn't anywhere near strong enough for the tractor and the hydraulics. The hydraulics have never worked properly. It always acts like it is starved for oil. The loader raises with a lot of vibration and it is often necessary to open up the throttle to get the loader up. Even when still under warranty the dealer couldn't solve the problem after several tries so I have lived with it. I recently purchased an MX 120 CaseIH with a L655 loader and I love it. The hydraulics are great, the loader works very well and the tractor is convenient to use. It is essentially the same tractor as the new McCormicks. [/QUOTE]
