I bought a 4100 gear with loader and rear blade(so far, a mower and tiller are<br>in the near future). I am very happy with my purchase. So far have plowed my driveway<br>with the nearly 2 feet of snow in the begining of january and pushed stone around,<br>and hauled firewood. I have no complaints! The loader is nice for pushing snow,<br>rear blades just cannot handle too much above 12

trying to get it pushed aside. I have no problems with power and really like the
gear transmission. I find it very easy to shift.
I would reccomend one, but shop around and test drive! "> Options for a compact tractor purchase

I have built a house and have the same opinion as the other people! What you want<br>to do would kill a compact tractor. When I built my house I had a John Deere<br>loader/backhoe, not a compact, but a construction size, and even with that, I<br>still opted to rent a tracked excavator to dig my basement, and septic. The $500<br>it cost to rent the excavator to get the job done in a day was well worth the week<br>I saved. <br>Just a warning, no matter who does the work, when you cut the trees cut them 3 foot<br>off the ground, that way they are easier to knock lose with a dozer or a loader.<br>Good luck!

Yes, they design the components for full life at the highest HP rating. I have no direct knowledge of the NH tractors, but if they are the same displacement, same bore and stroke etc. then it is a sure bet they are designed for comonality. The money savings is just to large to not do this whenever possible. You may not ever see any better life or reliability with the lower power machine. If the engineers did their job right, the design life on the higher HP engine will be several thousand hours. This is more than most people will see in a lifetime with a compact tractor. If the lower rated one lasts a little longer (may or may not be true) you will most likely never know or care. It is also not something that could be easily determined at resale, so it would not affect price. Keeping the tractor looking good will have a much bigger effect on resale price.<br> When I look at a product, I assess in my mind what it would cost to produce that product and then compare that to the asking price. It is not always easy to determine what something would cost to produce, however if it is compared to similar products then relative value can be determined. In this case, from the description of the first post, it sounds like two identical tractors except one produces some extra HP and costs several hundred dollars more. If that is the case, then NH is making profit selling the lower rated one or they would not sell it. The higher rated one would cost the same to produce. If you put a value on the machine based on what it costs to produce then there is no justification for the higher cost of the more powerfull machine. The only reason it costs more is that people will pay more for it. The extra cost is pure profit and in my book a rip off. Lets face it, all the compacts are overpriced compared to the larger tractors (but I still own one).

There is nothing wrong with my 4100. When I bought it last august the dealer simply told me that deere had not made a backhoe for it yet ,because it's such a new model,& expected they would soon. Now 8 mo later I read about everone's tractor not being heavy enough to do hoe work and deere sertainly won't make one.The tractor work's hard and perform's flawlessly. I run a landscape buisness & that's why I want a hoe. I guess I can't have everthing in one tractor. The 4100 will do everthing you wan't it to ...........except run a hoe.

I bought a 4200 collar shift and after putting about 3 hours on the tractor over a weekend, I called and said I wanted a hydro. They picked up the tractor later in the week and put a hydro on order. I now have the hydro and couldn't be happier with the purchase. The dealer told me (after I decided I wanted a hydro) that Deere has a policy that you can return the tractor within the first 30 days and get your money refunded or you can have them take it back within 90 and they will replace it with another model that you would prefer to have (you obviously pay the difference in price).
