2210 ground speeds in MPH from a dealer document I managed to get ahold of:
Forward low-range = 0 - 4.4
Forward high-range = 0 - 9.2
Reverse low-range = 0 - 3.8
Reverse high-range = 0 - 7.6
If you would like a copy of the 2210 PDF file, send me a private message here at TBN with your email and I would be happy to share. I have a copy of the 210 loader PDF as well. They are big files and you will need Adobe Acrobat reader to use them.

Bigpete, congrats on the new unit. I know you have spent a lot of time thinking on your tractor. Gosh, I cannot remember how long ago you started your search but it has ended---and you got a 2210--GREAT. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif . Why not get some pics of it and you. What did you do with the 455? I agree with you, your 2210 is not an economy unit, many folks would die for something as nice. Yeah, I also agree with you the Kubotas feel more industrial and I think that is what attracts me to them, I think their hydros are more responsive though.
Anyway get some pics of that baby before it grows up. J

Thanks, Tres. the tractor is still in the "pipeline" and I hope production isn't too sleepy after the holidays. My dealer says about 3 weeks for delivery. As you know, that might mean 5 weeks but I won't get too impatient until the end of January.
I ended up trading the 400 series in as part of the 0% financing deal offered by JD until the end of February. I'll pay off the balance before a penny of interest is charged unless unforseen domestic expenses blindside me. I started posting about an upgrade about a year ago when I was adding a few attachments to my stable that I wanted to be compatible with my upgrade. With this setup, everything I have invested in, including front blade, sprayer, seeder/spreader, aerator, etc., stays and works with the new tractor. The FEL should just about fill out the roster.
You and the rest of the magnificent denizens around here have been a big help through the process. I did end up buying an undeveloped 10 acre wooded plot in November. I've contracted with a small land development operator to clear and build two road beds and clear two areas for improvements. I was going to be a cowboy and buy a bigger CUT so I could jump into the fray, but I just don't have the time this year. Hence, the sub-compact fits my bill. BTW, I agree that the BX hydro is sharp. As I said, most of the decision was from the gut. The dealer swayed the buy in the end.
You can count on me to report on the performance of the 2210 with as much objectivity as is humanly possible. Have a great holiday.

I just gave my X595 its first heavy workout today. Put a set of JD chains on the back tires. Hooked up a customized drawbar to the 3PH along with a 300# dead weight. Put the 54" hydaulic front blade on.
Then I went after half-dozen poplars that I cut down to clear extra land for a walnut planting. They were 10-12" diameter and 40'-50'. Pulled them sideways on a hillside for 100' to a burn site.
Couldn't have moved them without the chains. The 595 struggled a little -- just too light even with the front attachments, rear wheel weights, the 300+lbs weight, and 210lbs of operator.
The hydraulic capacity is limited and the Cat 1 3PH has small arms and top link, which do the work, but certainly not as capable as standard cat 1 on most CUT's.
I was satisfied with getting the job done, knowing I didn't expect the 595 to perform like a CUT. The reason why I used it was my JD4700 is in the shop. Having the 595 available was better than being idle all weekend. It's still my choice for all the mowing I do, but the grass is growing a little slow in western Wis right now.
There's a message in my comments having to do with X vs CUT's, but I don't want to state the obvious.

I have the 4110 Hydro and am very happy with it. I was also concerned about what size tractor we needed. I wanted something I could use to clear land and use for FEL work. I have used the FEL for more things than I could have ever dreamed of. I only wish there was a backhoe oprtion for the 4110. I have heard some talk about a hoe for the 2210 that is supposed to be compatible with the 4110. I hope so...
