Very new--a couple of questions
Looking at a 2002 B7500 HSD with 205 hours-with a FEL, mid mount mower with 205 hours 4WD,b21HP with Cat 1 3pt hitch, and a 48" bucket.
1) diff between the HSD vs HST?
2) 48" bucket vs front end loader--are these the same things--this is how it was advertised in the paper
3) I see on these forums that tires are filled with liquid, antifreeze or other things besides air--why?????
3)cat 1 3 point hitch vs cat 2 etc--what defines a hitch?
4) Asking price for this tractor $11,500 is this reasonable and where is a source for used tractor prices i.e Kelly blue book type reference?

While I understand your excitment of wanting to perhaps grab a bargan before someone beats you to it maybe you should take a bit more time about it. A pickup truck today can cost twice what a compact tractor does, but you are still looking at a pretty good amount of money. We are always glad to welcome new tractor owners here and will help in any way we can, but I think you need to do som "Tire Kicking" before you buy a tractor on an impulse. My suggestion is to visit some dealerships first. Drive differnt ones then you will know whether you will like a GSD, (gear drive), or HST, (hydrostatic drive), have the dealer show you what a "Bucket" is, a "three poitnt", etc. Perhaps the tractor in the paper is not the right size for you? Go to more than one dealer. The major brands, Kubota, Deere, CaseNH, all have extensive dealer networks and will be there to take care of your parts and service needs for a long time. I think this is your first step, we will be here to help along the way. Frank. ....
