I think there's a furrow wore into the floor where I walked back and forth between the 2015 and the 2615 at the farm show. I had a tough time deciding, the 2615 is one sweet tractor ! The dealer asked me what I was going to do with the tractor, and I told him that I intended to mow the lawn & blow snow. I also had to admit that my stepfather and brother both have fairly new Bobcats, one a 7-sumthin and one an 8-sumthin, and if I needed any heavier digging done, I'd ask one of them to do me a favor. My old Bobcat 610 (which is going down the road, I hope) will outdig most tractors, and its a heap o' junk. They're just a better tool for that type of work, IMO. In light of this, the dealer recommended the 2015. Its should be a little easier on the lawn, especially in the spring.
