    Opinion on Price for New 2032R

    Hey all! I'm looking to purchase a new 2032R. Price out the door with loader and MMM is right at $26,500. Is that a decent price? It's been nearly 10 years since I bought a new tractor, so just wanted to get some thoughts. Also, I'm looking to sell my 2012 2720 loaded up the same. It's got...

    Water Pump for Portable Water Tank

    Hello all! I've got a homemade portable water tank that consists of a 55 gallon drum on a cart that I tow behind my ATV. It has an attachment that I just screw a water hose on. It works great for watering trees and such, but I want to be able to use it to water my small food plot or to water...

    How large LPGS for my 2720?

    We will be moving to a new home in a few months and we will have a 1/4 mile long driveway. I want something to help maintain the driveway, as well as prepare the yard for seeding this fall. I'm thinking an LPGS is the way to go and am trying to determine what size I need. With the relatively...

    Good buy on this Bush Hog Tiller?

    I just purchased this Bush Hog M60 5' tiller on a spur of the moment type deal. I've been searching for one for quite some time, but couldn't find what I thought was a 'good deal'. This one came up for sale by my neighbor and I just saw it by chance (posted on FaceBook by one of his workers...

    New Home Construction

    Well, I've heard that folks here at TBN enjoy home construction threads, so I thought I would start one to track the progress on our new home. First, the history. We had been looking for land to buy for years, but had never really found what we were looking for. We were about to give up...

    Anyone have experience with DR Chippers

    I'm looking for a good, used, low-cost 3pt chipper and came across one on craigslist. I don't envision a tremendous amount of use, just some cleanup here and there. Does anyone have experience with DR chippers? Does this look like a good deal? I have asked about the chute as I don't see it...

    Noisy ROPS!

    I just cut grass for the first time with my new JD 2720 tonight. She cuts great! But I do have one somewhat nagging issue...the ROPS is noisy! It rattles when it is up, and rattles REALLY bad when it's folded! I'm thinking of using a bungie cord on it to hold it tight when it is down, but...

    Connecting and Disconnecting Loader Hydraulic Lines: Tractor on or off?

    Hello all! I just received my JD 2720 over the weekend. I've never had a loader before, and I have a question on connecting and disconnecting the hydraulic lines. Does the tractor need to be off? Watching some YouTube videos, I've seen some with the tractor running while connecting the...

    New 2720 Finally Arrives!

    Well, my new 2720 was finally delivered today (well, yesterday since I'm posting this early Sunday morning)! Sadly, I didn't get to use it at all today due to the rain we received all day today. Probably won't even get to use it tomorrow because the grass will be too wet to cut and I don't...

    Anyone Have Experience with Sentry UltraGard Insurance

    Hello all! I'm getting my new 2720 this week, and was curious as to whether or not anyone had any experience with JD's Sentry UltraGard insurance. The price is right ($8/month vs. $28 through my insurance company), but I was wondering if anyone has any experience with it. It doesn't cover...

    Rotary Cutter: Light Duty vs. Medium Duty

    I'm getting my JD 2720 next week, and I am also getting a rotary cutter with it. I'm considering the Land Pride RCR1260 or the RCR1860. There is a $300 price difference between the two (RCR18 being more, obviously). I'm going to be using the cutter mostly for keeping trails clear and some...

    Pricing Thoughts on 2520

    I'm looking for pricing input on the following tractor. I'm not sure on the year yet (I'm trying to find out), but I'm guessing it's either a '10 or '11 based on the warranty description. I know prices vary by location, but what are your thoughts on a good price for this tractor? I've been...

    Tier 4 Compact Tractor Engines

    Hello all! I currently have a Kubota BX2200, but I'm going to be in the market for a new compact tractor in the next year or so (currently researching brands/models), and I'm interested in the changes in the new Tier 4 engines. Are they going to have DPF's on them similar to the new trucks...
