I'm very close to buying this same model. Two thoughts, the brush guard is kind of a joke and I'll almost certainly weld some expanded metal mesh on mine, if not even build some wings on the side as well (will be doing woods work and clearing). The gas tank is one other spot I wonder if I shouldn't cage as well, at least to the front exposure. Thanks for posting this.
Well so far I have 40 hours on it. When I first got it ,it was very hard to shift. She shifts good now with more hours on it. Its good on fuel and has lots of power over my old tractor. I will be doing a 50 hour review soon. Some holes that are in the loader are not painted .
I love it. Only problem I've had is that it keep breaking the shear pins off in the bush hog. I went out and got some class 5 bolts as I think all they put in where class 1. I have t haf and problems with the tractor other then it was hard to shift at first. But seems to be fine now the more I use it
Gotta love new toys. I know it doesn’t ride as nice but if you leave the bucket on and down it pushes bigger stuff over so it’s not riding the undercarriage as much. Just a thought

I feel like I’ve read that these 2600 series Massey’s don’t have a dpf or need def fluid. Is that true? If so, that’s a huge selling point in my book!
Yes thats right. This one is 74 horse with no DPF fluid. Im think it uses an EGR valve like a car
ShawnCFarm awesome! Wish Deere could figure out how to do away with it as well on their 5 series tractors
Nice Shawn! That one’s a keeper for sure. And best of all, it ain’t green......
Hey I’m new here. How is that Massey Ferguson holding up. I have the 231 and looking into buying this one next?

Will give that a try
I bought this same tractor yesterday!
jessie bruno hey, how you liking it so far. I’m looking into buying me a new one. I have the 231 now?
@@Jjason601 Love it,been looking around for a while now and for the money kept coming back to this one...no regrets here should have done it sooner
My 30hp chooches a bit once it hits that tall stuff , yours didn't even know the cutter was on the back 😅😅
I know theres no stoping it, but Ive broke 5 steer pins on the bush hog already
Now that is a toy I could use around the homestead...
I dont know how I got anything done with the old tractor
I bet that thing is like a cadillac compared to the old tractor.
I dont know how I ever did without a new tractor, has so many more uses then that old one
Om Nom Nom.
