    PaulL replied to the thread New or Used, would love advice.
    $15K is a lot of money. If it's the same tractor you would buy anyway, just cheaper, and you don't mind used equipment, then I'd go for...

    Financially, check the values on tractorhouse. Is it a good idea? Nah. I'd keep the excavator and get a used tractor to go along with...

    I bought an old BX without a loader. Then added a loader. I think I was $2K for the tractor, $8K for hte loader. But a 15 year old...
