As many of you know I have a 3720 tractor. I have had a 4310,3720, 4520 and another 3720 (the present one) in the past three years. I really like (love, actually) my 3720 tractor. I settled on another one because of all the machines I have had and used it seems to be the best for most of my needs. That said, I have a little problem: I have had a strong urge for a new XUV Gator when they are released later this month or early next. I had a Gator previously and while I would not trade a tractor for one, it was a very handy machine indeed. I do not really want to sell my 3720, but due to my penchant to buy too much equipment, my wife has me on a strict tractor/JD budget. She also notes that we do not have ROOM for a mid frame or larger machine and a Gator, which is a correct statement. So, it looks as if I really want a Gator I will have to sell my 3720. I will say, I could easily get by with a 2320 or a 2520 on my property, as most of my work is not heavy work and much of it requires wiggling into and out of tight spots. My 3720 does well, but there are places it will not fit either. In the experience of the posters, which would be my best means to advertise the machine if I emotionally can part with it: here, on the TBN site, at my dealer (and pay him commission) or on a national site such as EBAY? I have bought and sold some things on EBAY, just nothing this large. I also, of course, might back out as I really enjoy this machine. Would I enjoy a smaller machine less? I dunno. Thanks for the advice.
