This is my first post and I'm looking to buy my first tractor and let me just say that this site is the absolute best place on the net for info on tractors. I've learned a lot just looking around.
I've looked at JD, NH T2310, Kubota L4400, and Kioti and all of the salesmen tell me that their "industrial" tires are just as good as the ag tires for traction because they are wider, (but they are also the tires on the tractors they all stock and need to sell.) I'm looking to buy around a 40 HP tractor with 4 wheel drive and FEL to clear 15 acres of grass, brush, and blackberrys. I have another 10 acres of woods to thin out and open up. There are some low spots that hold water and part of the land is on a lake. After this initial clean up I want to have a little half acre garden and maybe a couple of cows. I have a fine JD mower for my lawn so there is no reason to fear the ag tires messing up the lawn-thats not a factor. So, any reccommendations on tires? Those industrial type look cool but I would think they woul be easier to get stuck.
I'm sure his thas been asked before but I went back 8 pages and didnt see anything on it.
