[QUOTE="AngusLimoX, post: 185926, member: 3319"] Without a lot more info I think your first consideration would be parts and maintenance, in other words is there a really good dealership near you. Doesn't matter what colour their iron is. I was lucky and may not have even gotten off the ground if I hadn't gone to the right dealer. Now I bought a lot of iron and tin, but if they hadn't stood behind it I'd be hurtin. ( Except for one implement all my stuff is used, well used ). Ask your neighbours and visit dealerships that are close. Take your time! I don't know what you are going to mow with but even a small haybine would use 40 horse. Personally I like a minimum of 60. Make sure you get live PTO. If you hadn't mentioned the mowing I was thinking an 8N or 9N type might be the ticket? Cheap, simple and reliable if you get a good one. I wish I had one around here quite often. [/QUOTE]
