GO used, you can find great deals, I bought a 1949 AC WD. It had the WD-45 engine upgrade. picked it up for $1500. Then got a bush hog for $250. The next year I got a 2 bottom plow for $300 and a 7ft tandem disc, new, for $395, 3pt mounted type. I haven't had any problems other than a few flat tires from the Locust bushes on my property. Am looking for a 2 or 4 row planter now. IMO, a tractor will out work any atv anytime, anywhere, and for less money.
