I bought a 4WD 790 about a year ago. It has the dscv, turfs and 4 bumper weights (160 pounds) and I paid 11,600 here in VA. I use it with an old Ford 5 ft. brush hog and a 6 ft. Bush Hog brand finish mower. Both of these mowers are heavy (>600 pounds) and the tractor has never had any problems. I use 4 40 pound weights on the front and probably should get one more. It will pop the nose in the air if I let off the clutch too fast with the mower up, but I have no problems with turning. I really enjoy this tractor, it has been trouble free and done everything I have needed it to do. I would buy one again if I needed too.

I have had a JD 790 for almost a year now and could'nt be any happier with it. I have heard that folks are switching tires to gain a little extra width and was curious if anyone had done this on a 790. I looked at it the other day and it did not look like I would gain anything (I did not measure though). Any information on this would sure be appreciated.<br>Thanks,<br>Mark
