5520 John Deere
Model Year: 0
As a whole, the tractor is good. It is not built to be stored outside. Fuel lines had to be replaced. Seat rusted out. Rubber parts are deteriorating. Has very good power. I bought a 541 loader with it. No trouble from the loader.
Pros: Power, hydraulics.
Cons: Not built for outdoor storage.

5520 with a 541 Bucket and a three point back blade. Here in the mountains 4wd is the only way to go. I see so many guys trying to scrape up hill without the weight of the 4wd drive and they just bounce. By turning the Deere around and reversing the blade direction, it will grade going backwards all day long.
Pros: Great power. Easy to mount attachments.
Cons: Cost. Beanie weanies for a year.
