I have only sat on a 3520, but to me it seemed like it sat higher, the hood was wider and higher, and the view of the front wheels was less than my 4400. I checked the specs on the John Deere website, but all it told me was that the wheelbase was the same. If you see a 00 or 10 series next to a 20 series, the 20 series looks bigger. I like the size of my 4400, and based on my observations, I am not interested in the 20 series. It looks like the 3203 is more along the lines of the 4400 size. I have a 48" overseeder that I pull, and the previous owner said that a 4300 would barely pull it. So, I would be concerned about losing the 3 hp.

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( </font><font color="blueclass=small">( I am interested in this model. I wish they would have put in the 35 hp engine instead. I like the idea that is is a hydro. I cannot wait until John Deere posts the specs. I hope that it is the same size (dimension size) as the old series. )</font>
The size of the 3203 is like that of a 3020 series tractor. But it's quite different from any of the 3020 series tractors. The 3203 has two speed ranges, has a very spacious operator platform, and a more basic istrument panel. )</font>
There will also be no option for power beyond so no backhoe will go on this model. I am looking forward to getting this on the lot. Great little tractor for basic box, mower, tilling and loader type work.

That sounds bang on to me. I ended up deciding on a Kubota L3400 as I didn't want to pay for the extras of the L3130/L3430.
JD did not seem to have anything that really competed with the L3400. I *REALLY* liked the 3120 but it was too much more. The 790 looked good except for the lack of hydro. I would have looked seriously at this new machine had it been out when I was shopping.

1st things I noticed:
6 lug hubs - 8 on my 3320
No folding Rops
Old style grill and lights
Old style grill guard
No cubby holes and cup holders onfender
Metal deck
I wonder?
Will it have mid PTO
Cruise?
Load Match/Motion match
Rear valves
Truth be known had I seen this last year I would probably own one. Looks like it will meet my needs. I won't trade my 3320 but this looks awesome for use 5-10 acre owners with no tillage.

Nope, the 3203 doesn't have any of that. It's pretty much a very basic 3320. But still a solid rig and probably a money saver if you can get by w/o the mid PTO and rear hydroulics. The headlights are like what you see on European Deere. The fenders are also a different material. That not as rigid as the 3020 series fenders.
