Aloha,
I'm working a 20 acre coffee farm that will grow to nearly 50 acres. We're using a Cub Cadet with a rear mounted Woods 48" rotary to mow the grass between our rows of coffee, but the CC is getting long in the tooth and has had to have repairs on the 4wd. My father uses a JD2210 with 54"MMM to do a similar mowing function on his 10 acres. I'm thinking of going with a 2520 with 62MMM to do my mowing. The times I've "raced" the cub cadet with Dad's JD I've gone more than twice as fast. Does the 2210 have a better stability than the 2520? BTW, we rarely mow grass longer than 3 inches. Grass strips between rows is roughly 8' wide so I don't think I can get a single pass down the rows and have any kind of maneuvering capacity.
Great site, I look forward to asking and hopefully answering many questions.
