Subject: Do high houred 8000 series tractors scare you?


Saronville NE
There are lots of tractors out there with high hours that are way cheaper. Like 8-9k hrd tractors at 30-40k cheaper than 3-4k hrd tractors. Do these bother you? How many on here have bought these? Have you had good luck with them? Got a neighbor that buys those all the time and seems to have good luck with them, and gets rid of them when they need alot of money spent on them. Whats your take? Is it worth it to pay high dollar for a low hrd tractor? or try to save some coin and buy high hrd stuff and hope you dont have any major breakdowns before it is paid for?
I rent a tractor every yr for 400 hrs and the rent is getting crazy, have looked into long term lease but those are crazy too, 24k for 600 hrs is no bargain. We had gone to renting after getting tired of spending big money on the old 50 series deeres all the time, and lke running newer stuff that I dont have to pay for breakdowns, but getting tired of these big rent payments and no equity. Give me your opnion. Thanks.
