Deere; Most Popular Models

[JDGreenGrass]

I just had to open up this thread. Reason being it seems to me that the Deere 2000 series is a huge success. More threads about priceing and specs with this series than all the others combined.

I have looked at these tractors and am intrigued like all the others. But, they are a lot of money when compared to my budget. Great value, don't get me wrong.

Is it because it is a residential tractor.??

What other Deere tractors have been as popular in years past.??

I think it's sort of there are more people with 5 acres or less, than 10, then 25, then 50, then 100, etc. So there are more sales to fit the needs of 5 arces or less over all.

I just read a piece not long ago about how whites are leaving the suburbs for rural America. They are moving to places 5-30 acres in size. The small compact tractor market is targeting them and the 1 series is further evidence of this move.

So, what do they do in Maine? Doesn't seem like much industry there...

Not much. Many of them have made their money and have moved here to small towns where they build a house in the woods and keep to themselves. Some of them probably post here.

Others have purchased property on the coast where high property taxes have pushed out the natives.

My GF comes from a southern coastal town. In the winter it is a ghost town, which is great. From mid April through about Thanksgiving you can't even navigate through town. Thousands of summer homes ($$$$$$$) that are vacant for months on end. It literally makes me sick to see what has happened to our coast. The generations of Fishermen are struggling.

And don't get me started on wind power. That industry is here and they are trying their hardest to devastate our mountain tops. I don't think those folks are natives.??

Sorry for the rant. You asked.

there's a road called white pass in wash state. used to be a beautiful, scenic...gorgeous drive. now there are thousands of wind turbines.....a real eyesore. and what pisses me off more than the unit themselves. there always STOPPED. they are never turning. Maybe one day ill return there and actually see them turning and chopping the eagles to pieces (well...not really that part).

I know we need the non oil and non nuclear power generators, but there sure ugly. The utilities say that there isnt the infer-structure (IE: the grid) available to actually transport the power yet. hmmm, maybe that should have gone in first??
