B4 folks start beating up or building up either let me explain my use. Mow 2.78ac. pretty much manicured with trees and gentle slope sandy soil. I went in thinking 324 then while I was there the dealer got a truck with 3 221's, surprise, surprise. I said OK let me take a look as do not want to buy more than what I need. Again I will explain I am 66 years old and will not be adding addtl property so needs will not be changing. In fact next move will probably be 60'X120' lot in neighborhood when can't maintain this property. So took 221 for a quick drive. Pros: Will do the mowing (90% of use) and occasional loader work I need, ergonomics good, good power seemed to be a capable SCUT Cons: No Dif lock, Smaller tires, Single range tran which not sure if crazy about. Some 3 pt pto items, M60SA mower not drive over. M60SA mowers on order and called while I was there looking mid April. I do not think will be performing 3 pt work or very little.
Cost difference without playing hardball is about $1500 between 221 & 324 if finance or cash. That small difference makes me think 324 if nothing else but just for the resale, but what says you?
He met my quote on the 324 cash sale for what my best quote is for Deere 1025r financed.
