Tractor 4WD 20-30HP w/ 72" deck

[Builder]

Wish List:
20+ HP diesel or 25 HP gas
Hydro
72" MMM
4WD
shaft driven trans & deck
under 10K new

Don't want zero turn.

Have looked at JD X728, but only available with 62" deck. Dealer wants 11K he will give me 3K for my smaller deer. If it had 72", I'd have bought it already.

I like the mid 2000-'s Cub Cadets with 72" MMM.

What else is available with 72" MMM with wish list above?

Does not fit the under 10k requirement, but the JD 2520 and 2720 will support a 72" deck, as well as the slightly older 4115 model.

Gotta stay at or under 10K unless it's impossible to do.

Does it have to be new? There are some 4115's out there close to that price...

That looks like the tractor I want, but way too far from me, and I'd doubt the dealer wouldn't take a long distance trade.

I like that better than the X series b/c it's more like a real tractor. The X seems like a beefed-up garden tractor.

There are others, that is just the first one that popped up that had a 72" MMM.

It is a good machine...full CAT1 3PH, 2 range hydro, Cruise control, 3 cyl Yanmar DI 24HP engine...

That is nice. Wonder if it's too heavy to mow lawn without ruts.

[kennyd]

Not at all, it is only about 100lbs heavier than my 4110 IIRC which weights about 1600 or so naked, then add 300 for the mower. With turf tires it will be a great mowing machine. I have R4's and mow all summer-only light marks after it rains and the ground is real wet.

Thought this would be something to consider if I could add a 72" deck for under 10K, but it doesn't have turfs, either.

I don't think those machine had a very good track record...and finding a deck might not be easy.
