I recently read a post about a problem with the JD420/430 Series loaders pulling out of the front frame when subjected to excessive back fill operations. Can't remember where I read it...but it was somewhere in here. Anyone else heard of this problem?

Toddh......I have to agree with the others, a 4100 seems a bit on the small/light side for your needs.....I've been shopping around and IMHO the Kubota B2710/2910, JD4200/4300, or the NH TC29/TC33 would be better suited to your needs......prices range from $17K-$20K for tractor with HST, folding ROPS, R4s, fitted with 60" HD loader, 5' brush hog, and 5' box scraper.

good responses guys...it seems to me though, if a certain manufacturer notices a disparity between his published specs and his competitor's published specs, and the disparity was NOT in his favor...he would try to provide an explanation to show his specs were just as good as his competitor's....UNLESS he's intentionaly trying to promote confusion................

Mike, glad to hear you enjoyed the test drive...how were the ergonomics??
as good as the photo in the brochure shows? Was the lift easy to operate and remove/replace??........why are you opting for the JD???...BTW, its my first tractor purchase, so I'm still relatively color blind........

Local dealer sells International brand implements (box scraper, landscape rake, rotary cutter). I am unfamiliar with this brand, but they look sturdy enough to pull behind a NH35D. Anyone have any advice/comments for me??

gerard, sounds to me like you have 2710 like our friend Bird Senter there. The 2710 is a "potential" on my shopping list. How long ya had it?? How much and what kind of work have you done with it? Is it your first and only tractor? Are you as happy with yours as he appears to be with his??

Bruce, glad to hear your problem was minor. I don't know where some of these dealers find their mechanics! I guess there is not enough repeat business in sales to warrant hiring a competent mechanic. Other than the joystick/hydraulics foul up...have you had any other issues with the 3010??

Eddie, hey neighbor!!..Can't help ya out with the mower deck...I've not looked at any. I'm looking at the 5' SE5 or SQ600 rotary cutters. Both look equally matched. As far as the extendable lift arms??......did I miss something??

Bird Senter........thanx a heap!.....sheesh...I just convinced myself that the 2710 was a great tractor but too small for my needs (well actually it was my wife that did the convincing - she likes BIG tractors)...and now you come along and tell me how great your 2710 does all the chores I need doing......

tell me....do you ever look back and wish you'd have bought bigger??....I mean all I hear in the tractor world is "decide on what you need then go out and buy the next bigger size...."

truth of the matter is......I had less trouble deciding on a wife!*laughing*

I also received a letter from John Deere Credit. You have to look at it from a business point view. John Deere knows farmers may miss their payment deadlines. Basically what they are saying is, send what can, when you can, and please don't file for bankrupcy. Its better to get a little money than none at all.

Ken, I agree it can be dangerous if one isn't careful. I've been working in the woods for a long time, and feel comfortable using smaller tractors. I use a skidder for my larger operations but the price of moving them from job to job doesn't make them economical for the
