Looking for advice... I'm an OUP(Older Urban Professional) looking to retire to 20 acres of woods in the Shenandoah. I want a tractor for hauling-400+lb boulders and wood, road grading-3/10mi straight down, and light land clearing. I have been looking at a Kubota L2600 and a JD4200, both with front loader and PTO grading blade. Price, hp, PTO hp, etc are all a wash - almost even. The only big differences are:<br>1. JD's Loader breakout force is almost double that of the Kubota(2693lbs vs. 1653)<br>2. The JD's Operator area is more user friendly than the Kubota's.<br>3. JD's PTO clutch is Independent vs Kubota's clutch.<br>4. My wife thinks the Kubota looks more like a tractor<g>.I am leaning towards the JD - any big reasons I should consider the Kubota???Many thanks... Nikker<br>
