I have been in the market for some time now and I am still completely undecided. I was just hoping I could get some opinions on which tractor you would get. I am looking at the JX65, TN70, JD 5320, Agco Allis GT65, Massey 461. I am looking for something around 65 HP and 4X4. Eventually I want to get a loader, but this tractor will be used for an all purpose farm tractor doing 4x4 round bails. Anything that's a must have option?

Are you looking for 65engine or PTO HP? If you are looking for PTO you better go up a couple models. TL80 NH JXU80 Case Not sure about JD but I know the NH or case will be cheaper. The TN and JX are good utility tractors but not very good for any kind of actual farm work. If you do decide to go with the TN or JX stick with the mechanical shuttle and 4wd as the electrical are riddled with tit for tat problems. ....

knl33t,
I would suggest that you take a look at the Kioti DK65S. Word has it that Kioti is coming out with a DK85 next year if you can wait. ....

My personal preference would be the M-6800 from Kubota for features and performance and longeveity. ....

Thanks for the input. I think we are going with TN75 or JX75. Waiting for one deal on a JX which will be taking place today. The pen is just waiting for a piece of paper to sign :) .
Those should be good enough for what we do, but the JX is a little bigger so I hope we can come to a deal with it.
I read through the forums and haven't noticed any major issues with either model. ....
