Buying a 4wd tractor.

glendrait1

Hi im looking for a neat handy 4wd tractor. Possibly a fiat 80-90 or a new holland tl80. Which is the best of these or what other tractor would you recommend?

What would you be using it for?
Budget?

I am hoping to pick one up for less than 20k. I need a tractor with spool valves in order to run a log splitter and trailer work. I need a 4wd tractor for work on hill ground.

You have plenty of choice so.
A New Holland TM series would be a good choice:

Or a McCormick:

Plenty of Massey 390s out there:

Or a John Deere 7700:

What do you know about a new holland tl80? I was looking at at a low hours tractor(1400) for sale at 20k . Didnt deal as I knew very little about it. Hope I dont regret not buying it.

They're a pretty bombproof tractor. One with a wet clutch would be preferable but the dry clutch would be ok too.
