Read articles →An owner's first-look introduction to a newly purchased 2025 LS MT242E, focused on the buying decision rather than the machine itself. The creator explains why he chose LS over New Holland, Kubota, and John Deere, citing 0% financing, parts interchangeability, and price difference, and briefly mentions attachments (bucket, pallet forks, scraper blade, rake). No walkaround, no specs, no loader or implement demo. Best for shoppers curious about the purchase rationale and financing angle.
An owner-operator who bought this tractor for personal and light commercial use, sharing the buying story from his own perspective.
LS offered 0% financing for 10 years with no money down, while New Holland's financing was 8%, and the LS was still a few thousand dollars cheaper overall.
Yes, he was told that if the LS dealer cannot get a part, New Holland parts will interchange, which is convenient since a New Holland dealer is nearby.
The next direct competitors after New Holland would have been Kubota or John Deere, and those options would have cost thousands and thousands of dollars more.
It has a Skidsteer quick attach with a bucket and pallet forks, plus he already owned a rake, a 6-foot scraper blade, and a pulverizer.
