thinking of trading my 2011 ex2900 on a ??

[alltherage]

I really have no good reason to trade. I wish my ex2900 had more foot room and room for getting on and off. This is really only an issue in the winter when bundled up. Also, I had been using a slightly oversized blower for a couple years and now the rear hydraulics creep slightly when loaded up with weight. I probably should just get that fixed or attempt it myself as I'm assuming it's just a seal issue. For all I know a different fluid might fix it (I have wolf's head in it now which the cub dealer sold to me) In actuality, it effects nothing....just bothers me when it's idling and I hear/see it jump up. I would like to have a backhoe for drainage work around the house. Again, I could probably find one for this tractor.

another reason to keep it is that it's paid for. I have no idea what trade value would be. I do love the tractor although it really needs a cup holder!!

I've always had an interest in getting an LS for some reason. It seems like they are having some issues though, although my reading has been limited.

What are good alternative tractors to my ex2900? I'm looking for something the same size around 30hp. This is perfect for around the house and 2 ac.

Thanks

I should add that there are yanmar, LS, massey, JD, Kioti, and Kubota dealers relatively close.

Adding a cup holder to an existing paid for tractor is probably less expensive than buying a new tractor. You'll probably find trade in less than satisfactory as the dealer has to go through the tractor then sell it, hopefully making a profit in the process.
