Topic

Seeking advice for my first tractor purchase. My anticipated needs for the tractor are mowing (approx 5 acres with some trees to manuever), snow removal, spraying full size fruit trees, residential landscaping, gravel driveway maintenance, tilling of a large garden plot, hauling materials around the lot, etc. Some basic topics I'm seeking input on are new vs. used, gas vs. diesel, tractor size, tractor brand. Some specific items I am wondering about are the differences between the JD 4000 series and the 700 series (I heard that the 700 series offers a lower price, but I am not sure what you lose out on to get that price). Also, I am wondering if anyone has thoughts on the new Kubota BX2200 "subcompact" tractor - might this be a good choice? what might I be sacrificing in the subcompact vs. a traditional compact? Finally, any recommendations for dealers of new and used equipment in Michigan (preferably SE Mich)? Thanks.
