I hear that. But luckily it also correlates to lack of stability the higher you lift.Hydraulic lift capacity of all tractor FELs decreases rapidly as load height increases.
Any update Cold1313?
I'm still doing some reading. Moving 2,000lbs would happen once a year when I get wood pellets. So I might only be moving 3 pallets a year or so (depending how many more wood pellet stoves I get in the future). I'm not overly concerned on the weight part.
I am more concerned about getting a tractor that will make me feel comfortable on the slopes. Right now it doesn't take much more than a small rut and a tiny slip to make me pucker up. The farmer currently working my land had a worker mow around the property with a big cutter. He was moving quick and didn't care about the slopes. Then again it was an older tractor and had some serious weight to it.
I'm guessing by time I find a tractor that I'd be comfortable in, it will be way more than I need. I'd almost have to find a way to earn a few bucks or something with the tractor.
I'd also have to get a decent price for my B3200 (less than 150 hours)...which is a whole other story!
