I've come down to the JD 3520. The wife perfers the hydro pedals over the treadles, and what she says goes!! 4x4 with the 300X loader. Are there any other options I should really consider?
We just bought our first home and 5.5 acres along the lake. We have a few years of cleaning trees, overgrowth, hauling dirt, making bulkhead etc to get the place right. I need something like this with a light foot print to get the job done.
This will be my first tractor purchase. I have seen my father go through 6 tractors on our 20 acre farm. Mostly because he's a tight wad, but secondly because he just hasn't found the "right one". I'm trying to avoid that as much as possible. I guess my biggest question is, "Is the cab worth it?" After the immediate cleaning etc, this tractor's primary purpose will be mowing the 5.5 acres and the wife will probably do it as much as I. I'm hoping this purchase will be the only one I need to make for many years to come.
All comments and suggestions are appreciated.
