    As the others have said, get 4WD. 5 years ago I bought my Mahindra 5570 (70hp) 4x4 for money within your budget and LOVE it.

      Also- go on any Craigslist and see how many later model low hour used tractors are on there, if their are a lot of 1 brand ( and there are) then stay away from those. Most are knock offs.

          You will be much happier with a 50hp 4wd with cab.

          Extra cab weight will help.

          Also fill the back tires with fluid and you will be amazed at the difference
          You do realize that cab will eat up part of your 50 hp, right? A 50 hp with a cab ain’t a 50 hp tractor.

            Explain what about the cab besides AC robs power

              I’m seeing a bunch of used orange ones. Cab would be really nice but thinking that money may be better spent on more hp. Sambo you got a website with used ones for sale. If so send me a pm. Thanks

                Front end loader and 4x4 is a must.
                Fill your back tires with Ballast. And never look back.

                  The radio?

                  Curious as well?

                  We went from 2x4 to 4x4. Other than pushing stuff with fel only once have I used 4x4.

                  But I also know when not go into something

                    I’d buy the 4x4. That being said I own a 55hp 2wd and can get that thing out of a mess with the loader, I mean a big mess.

                      I have 2wd tractors and have no issues working them. I have a Case 485 with FEL and MF 230, they both out perform equal size Kubota power wise. I would normally vote bigger HP 2wd over a smaller HP 4wd. I am getting old and that cab means a lot in the summer and protection from Bee's. I would vote for the cab

                        I use 4x4 more for extra push when loading the bucket and to maintain steering when turning with a disc etc than I ever do for mud. If it were only for mud 4c4 would be optional.
