Needs vs wants.
I'm looking for a small tractor. I'm just not sure of what I really need. As for wants I'm pretty sure but could change.
Wants,
A small tractor with a 30 to 40 hp diesel engine. A fil/bucket would be nice. 4x4, independent pto, turf tires and that's pretty much it but would like to keep the hp high enough to run a 60" rotary cutter should I ever need too. I would like to keep things big enough to maybe put in a few food plots and gardens for other people to help cover the cost. Also maybe light landscape work.
Needs, Not sure on the hp. I know this all depends on what it's used for, I'm pretty sure I would not be happy with a 20 hp but 25 to 30 maybe. It would mainly be used with a landscape rake on hilly terrain along with a box or scrape blade to smooth it out a little. I know using it with the ground wet would be out. Also maybe using it to pull dead/fallen tree's to a burn area after they are cut to reasonable size. Maybe pulling a plug aerator, pto seed/fertilizer spreader.
So what do some of you more experienced people say?
Also anyone with any experience with a Kubota L2350 2wd? I have not looked at one but might in a couple of days.
