Hello,
After reading a lot of the threads on this forum and spending way too much time researching sub-compact tractors, I finally went and bought the GC2310 TLB. I bought it from Northwood Power Equipment in Hermon, Maine. It was delivered today. I can hardly wait to put it to work and put it to the test. I just purchased 21 acres of land and plan to build a new house for me and a barn for my horses. This unit will be handy to pull out a few stumps, dig drainage ditches and oh yeah, moving around the stuff horses make on a daily basis. It will be a shame to get it dirty though.
My last tractor was a Kubota B7300HST, which I lost in a divorce 5 years ago, and I miss my baby. Of course I am talking about the tractor. So naturally, I had considered the Kubota BX24 first. But, I kept coming back to the Massey. I liked a lot about the Massey but one major factor was the Massey has steel hood and fenders where the Kubota has plastic. Call me old fashioned, but, I believe a tractor needs to be made of steel, not plastic. Another factor was the Massey is made by Iseki and they make a quality piece of equipment. Check out the blue version of the GC2300 at ISEKI > Products > Tractor TMG Series. I had an Iseki/Bolens years ago and it was a workhorse.
Anyway, I would like to thank all of you for your useful comments and I will be contributing once I have had a chance to put this little-big guy to work.
