So I think it is time to upgrade my old 670. It just doesn't have enough power to really handle my bush hog that well. So I am looking for a newer tractor, probably a used one in the 30hp range. Here is where I'm having a hard time and would be appreciated any input you all might have.
So in this range, I'm looking at the 2720, 3320 and possibly the 3032e or 3038e. The e series has one big advantage, the price. But the 3320 and 20270 seem to be nicer tractors. I'm wondering if the 3320 might have a disadvantage because it is taller so a high center of gravity plus a larger turning radius. But at the same time seems like a heavier duty tractor.
I don't plan on getting a loader because I have one on my 5303. But I may have to because I am seeing very few used ones with a loader. Most of what I will be using with this tractor is a bushhog, yardbox and tiller.
So based on the above, what do you all think? Am I talking myself into the 2720? Should I just go new, because it seems like there isn't much discount on used tractors under 200hr. Any input is appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott
