    Buying a MX5800 HST. Recommended Attachments/Adds

    Thanks again for all of the advice. I am almost there. I will get all of the remote valves from the factory and the 3rd position and leave the haying to the pros. The house is due to close on the 20th, then we leave on vacation for a week. When we get back it will be time to spend some money...

    Thanks for the info. I was a little nervous about not buying enough tractor. Sounds like I should be able to do everything I want with the mx5800. This is my first tractor and I want to make sure I'm getting the right one. I am going to use a riding mower for the areas close to the house...

    There's not a lot of snow, about 5-6" a year. The barn doesn't have a concrete floor but thats a good idea. My dump trailer that I'm going to be using to haul the tractor is 83" wide, so I think I am going to have to go with the 72" bucket. I will upgrade to the heavy duty bucket and get a...

    I will probably get some forks too as that seems to be the consensus and I'll go with the box scraper and save the land plane for future spending. I was planning on getting the 84" bucket but hadn't thought of filling the tires. I will look into that as well. Are there any...

    It's going to be awhile on the harvest. It was just replanted about 6 months ago. I'm mostly going to be working on cleaning up and road grading to begin with. I'm sure it will evolve from there.

    I am new to tractors. I am in the process of purchasing 76 acres and as soon as that is finished in mid July I am going to purchase a new tractor. I have decided on the MX5800. I am planning on adding Top_n_tilt, Backhoe, Brush Hog, and 3rd position in the front. Property is sloped, and was...
