    I wouldn't let the years worry me as tractors age well. Price seems about what they are going for around down here.

    I would think this is a little high for only a 21 hp tractor. No research to back this up though...

    Maybe a little high but if it is still in good shape no leaks on the hydraulics it has a bucket I say offer 10 grand and go for it. Of course tractor prices can vary from place to place.
    The tires still look ok and 4 wheel drive is a big plus in the snow for tractors.

    Nice looking tractor. The only thing I notice is the bucket is pinned on and not a quick change. If you're not swapping between a bucket and forks every day, then it's not an issue

    Seems a bit on the high side to me.

    I got the 2016 BX25D with the backhoe, box blade, and finish blade for $14,500.

    I don't think the price is unreasonable, but a bit more than I'd wanna pay for a barebones tractor of that size and age.

    $.02

    Seems high to me simply because of the age and one has to question the hours. But then, I wouldn't be in the market for a tractor that small. However, it depends upon what you plan on using it for. I also would not want a pin on bucket. Most folks will end up wanting pallet forks and if so, switching the bucket and forks is so simple, easy and fast with the clip on bucket.

    btw, I believe a 33 hp Kubota is around 15,000 but that would be without the bucket.

    If you're not in urgent need I believe holding off a while could save you a fair amount of money. The sad truth is a great number of people will be selling stuff just in order to survive. I'm trying very hard not to come off as a vulture praying on the unfortunate because my family could very well be selling my stuff.

    What do you want to do? What is your budget?
    That’s a nice, little tractor and I’ve heard good things about that model. I believe those hours, it looks too good to have a ton of hours. It also looks like it’s been stored inside. It would be hard to find one that nice for that price. That being said I’d pay a little more and get a bigger one with a quick attach bucket.

    Just playing with the idea a little. Don't know anything about them and already have learned a little form the responses. (pin bucket vs. clip on)

    Nice looking little tractor, but is very small, I would try to go around the 40-50 range, they are still compact but can do a Lot more. And a quick attach for the loader is the only way to go, will save you a lot of time and swearing. Mason wi is only 2 hours north of me.

    tier 4 in the diesels now- pia. What I have been hearing is more than 80% of problems are emision and computer related. add in propriety software ( aka John Deer) and you are at the mercy of the dealer- still an on going battle in that department court wise That in turn has driven the used market prices up higher which were already very pricy. It is fast approaching the point that for a few hundred more one can buy new with warranties.

    I guess it depends on what you want. I bought a Kubota a few years ago the Kubota rep told me to try to get one Under 30 horse. If you want a bigger one go older (I don’t know the year but my 2012, 35 horse New Holland doesn’t have it)
