Topic

Like many others, I am considering the purchase of a JD 790. This board has provided a wealth of valuable information which I am using to add me in my decision. To those of you participating, I Thank You.My needs; mowing 5 acres, gravel drive maitanance, logging work (stacking 6' length logs for splitting), stump removal and picking the mail up at the box a mile away (this was part of the agreement of the purchase, the Mrs, can use the tractor to pickup the mail!)The first question has been asked, but I couldn't find a response.The JD 790 has 815 lbs, hitch lift capacity at 24" behind the link ends.<br>The Kubota L2500 has 1435 lbs, hitch lift capacity at 24" behind the link ends.<br>Is this an indication of smaller less powerful hydraulics on the Deere? How should I consider this into my purchasing decision given my needs?What is the model number of a comparable New Holland product.Are there any other manufactures I should consider? One of my greatest concerns is resale. I'm really leaning toward the 790.<br>
