I found out yesterday the old JD 2240 is toast. Had planned on doing a tractor upgrade in a about 3 years but I guess that idea is out the door now.. I know this is beat to death but I am mechanically inept and need a used tractor that will get me through the next 15 or so years as trouble free as possible. Anyway, I would like to spend around $15,000-$20,000, need round 50 HP and gotta have a front end loader.I have about 20 acres to mow, plant 8 acres of summer crops,plant about the same in fall/winter plots and other than that just the normal mowing, grading etc on 320 acres.. Probably don't rack up 100 hours a year in tractor time.So what says the Aldeer peanut gallery.
