I am trying to get a good comparsion on these two tractors. I currently have a open STation NH TD 80D and i like it... so i am very familar with the TD series tractors. I went and test drove the Jd and there is somethings i like alot about the JD but really wouldn't know without using it everyday. The economy PTO, self leveling loader, and the power reverse all seem like really nice options that i am not used to so i dont know how well they would work. I mostly use my tractor for moving 6x6 round bales around and shredding with my FR-15 Rhino Shredder. I am worried about the JD being a little bit light weight. It just doesn't seem that it is as heavy built as the NH TD 5050...but does have a few more bells and whistles. How well will the JD move 1800 lbs bales around without weights or another bale on the back? Does it seem stable when moving around with jsut a bale on the front? I move quite abit of hay around yearly so this is important info for me cause i like to get the job done in timely mannner. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
