New Tractor

[dt34715]

I am interested in getting a new tractor. I will be cutting, raking, and hauling hay. I will also by pulling a 10' bush hog on some fairly steep hills. What is you recommendation, especially for safety on the hills. Looking at around 65 horsepower.

5075 John Deere or a m7040 Kubota.

10' brush hog I wouldn't go under 70hp

I will ad 4x4 also, if you were not already planing on it.

Where are you located?

If you are willing to go a bit bigger, check out the Kubota M100GX (86 pto hp)

I just bought a new M126GX (108 pto hp) Love the GX cab. :heart: Surprising how well the Kubota pulls my Hesston 856A round baler.

Only got 20 hrs on the tractor now but so far I am well pleased. Would like to buy those clever Japanese engineers a beer! ;-)

I was using a MF 2775 (160 hp) and I can't tell any less power by seat of the pants measure.

The first thing to consider is what tractors have the best service records in your area. Quality of service eliminates a lot of dealers.

My most concern is how it handles on the hillsides.
