I had just about settled on purchasing the GX50 when I carefully read the lifting capacity of the L100 Loader. 880lb level and 600lb at full height. Breakout is only 1700#. On a 50hp tractor! It seems to spoil what is otherwise a great tractor: Compact, maneuverable, 50hp, 12/12 shuttle which is very smooth, 4wd - locking front and rear, Cab ( a must for me so I can work in all weather). It has to do with the low capacity pump they use (7gal/ minute for the implements at 1600psi) and I would guess 1-3/4 cylinders on the FEL.
I don't bale hay but my neighbor does on my fields. I don't know if I am going to need to pick up an occasional round bale...
