I have a 54" bucket on my TC24 and a 60" bucket w/toothbar on my B2910. There are times when I really wish I had a smaller bucket on the TC24 to get into tighter places. Or because I think I could dig a little easier with a smaller bucket.
I bought a 50" tiller and had a lot of advice that I should have gone up to about 60" for the tiller. My logic is the smaller tiller will till in one pass while a larger unit would need 2 passes because it would require more PTO HP than I have to dig a bigger tiller deeper on the first pass.
It seems like the forums are filled with people who bought big, or wish they did. Granted, I don't have much open land so a big tractor would actually slow me down, but my implements seem to be on the smaller side than some of the neighbors and much of what I read.
I'm I just a black sheep here for thinking that slightly smaller implements actually perform better than larger implements?
