I am a JD man and I would RUN like the wind from a JD 2955 with 10,000 hours with a loader on it. They had a great motor just everything behind that was not the greatest. They have a dry clutch. The hydraulics are a nightmare to work on once they give you any major trouble. I would stay away from that model with those kind of hours.
I would look at a JD 6400 MFWD with those kind of hours and not be too scared of it. They have a wet clutch. The hydraulics are not an issue on them. Real early models can have electrical issues but most of them should be worked out by now.
Also you numbers on hours are off too. 100,000 miles would be more like 3000 hours. A 10,000 hour tractor is more like a 300K car.
If the motor has been overhauled and the hydraulics are top notch than MAYBE, but that is a BIG MAYBE.
Also the 85-100 HP MFWD cab tractors are always a hot seller. So finding a "Deal" on one is going to be tough. Most of what you find in the $25K range will be well "used".
