I visited my local dealer again yesterday. Drove the 2540 again. I was wondering if anyone had any feedback on them? It looks like it has the same 2.7 liter engine that the 4540 has just tuned differently. 2650 vs 2058 RPM to get PTO speed. How is the 2540 on fuel? Anyone mow/brush cut on hills with it? Does it have enough power for up and down cutting? I'd be using a 6' cutter.
Anyone plow with one? I've been going back and forth with the 4540 and figured the extra weight would be better for plowing. The new property I'm buying has at least 1/4 mile of driveway. However I have pasture to mow and am concerned that 5200 lbs might be a bit much. The 2540 is lighter and should have less of an impact. The soil here is dense clay with some rocks.
Thanks for your help.
