Hello to the group, this is my first post. I will be pulling the trigger next week on a new tractor. I have done a lot of reading and comparing stats. It痴 down to two tractors?D 2520 and Kubota B2920. Both with FEL and BH.
I have ten acres, about 6 in gentle sloping pasture and 4 wooded. I will use the tractor for mowing (brush hog), tree removal, addition to the house, property landscaping.
Here are my concerns, I would appreciate any comments from the group?hanks
PTO - JD has 1 speed Independent , K has 2 a speed Live
HST - JD 2 range, K 3 range
Alternator - JD 40 amp, K add $186 for the 40 amp.
Tire size - JD has bigger tires
Weight - JD is 300 lbs heaver
BH - Both are similar. With the Kubota you can add a thumb, not an option with the JD.
JD is $24,00 more then the Kubota $22,700.
I can稚 say any one of the above is a deal killer except maybe the 2 vs. 3 range HST
