Should I buy a John Deere Tractor?
I have a 5 acre farmette. I am looking at a 30 HP John Deere with a front loader, finish mower and snow blade. A brand new 2006 runs $22K. Should I go with a John Deere or another brand?
Also should I get the pull behind snow blade, or the one that mounts on the front loader?
Sounds like a wise purchase (JD 790-?).
I would get the 3pt blade on the back, if room permits for storage, it is handy with snow removal to have the front loader and rear blade. Blade scrapes it and then the loader piles it high. It is also helpful for leveling and landscaping projects.
Check out www.tractorbynet.com a few people there have purchased them and have comments/etc, they may be able to help you with your decision on JD or anything else you are considering.
