I would be considering something in the 52" walk behind range, possibly with a sulky or skid plate. Who needs to mow at 15 mph! Especially with 5 little moving targets playing ball at the same time. Along these lines, what sort of mower will get the kids on it first? Hydrostatic grips on a walk behind can be pretty hard to squeeze. I zero turn would be easy to go, but they can't reach the brake for a long time. Still, it seems that a walk behind would be operable sooner to my mind.

This forum is a great help! I looked at a 72" frontier plow for the 3520 yesterday. I liked it better and the price was much lower than a curtis. Is this the right size for a 3520 and Vermont snow? Could this tractor handle an 84" plow? I've found with my little 112 that that a 36" plow is too wide, and it almost seems as though the job would go quicker with something smaller. I don't want to be in that situation again at the bigger scale.

considering a 3320 is this enough

Is there a 3 point backhoe for this tractor that sized closer to the JD 448? I looked at a few yesterday. The woods hoe was priced at about $6200. A JD447 priced in at $7200 including the power and beyond package. There was also a slightly used 448 available (on scuff marks anywhere including the bucket) that could be had for the same price as the 447 including the hydraulic package. Both the 447 and Woods model look like toys next to the 448. This is the backhoe I'm familiar with, and know its limitations. I don't think I could consider a smaller model for a moment. Can any other add-on hoe be had for less than the $7200?
