- L2501 HST 4x4
I've ran about 600 hrs over the last 4 years mostly on my property which is all 15° to 20° slopes aside from a few level areas and roads I've graveled. Was scary at first out on the 30 rolling acres traversing sideways on contour but after a while you get used to how the tractor handles hills, L range HST and 4x4 are great. AG tires all the way out and filled.
My favorite add-on was the BH77, as the subframe alone adds good low ballast. The backhoe itself isn't very tall when mounted so it fees like the best counterbalance weight even on the hills, rivaled only by my 5' rollover box blade...I leave the backhoe on as much as possible, so handy for what I do around here and really stabilizes the machine for loader work.
Just used the tractor today to mount a 9 foot flatbed and had it hanging way out front...sure its aluminum but I was still impressed!
Hope you love the L2501 as much as I do, it's a Goldilocks IMO!
