I had a John Deere 4200 with FEL made by Yanmar for 20 years, until a friend wanted to buy it to give to his son. So I bought a new Yanmar YT235 with FEL, 3rd function, dual remotes, loaded tires. It is nice tractor once you get used to the need to run the RPM a bit higher. The JD loader was more responsive, and I was accustomed to operators position, so the Yanmar felt odd at first. The 4200 had a suspension seat, and I miss that. and for this old guy, it is a pain to set and release the parking brake. For years the 4200 was my Swiss Army Knife machine. So it was mediocre at everything except mowing, but always got the job done. I now mow with a JD 1545 4wd with a 37HP Yanmar and front mount 72” rear discharge 7 iron deck. It’s a beast. That took major hours off the tractor each year. I parked some of my retirement savings in used low hour machines thinking they would hold value and I would get to do stuff. The JCB track skid steer, and Kubota 040-4 excavator saves the tractor, and makes me the most popular curmudgeon in this neck of the woods, so there’s that.
