Compact Utility Tractors
So, since PPOT is huge source of wisdom on many subjects...
I am looking to buy a compact utility tractor. I have narrowed down my search to either a John Deere 1025R or a Kubota BX2680 (or maybe a 2380...). I've read the reviews, watched the videos, talked to the salesman, etc., and just wanted to get some good ol' PPOT feedback. On paper these two are very similar. My goals are ~25 hp, 4WD, loader, belly mower as a minimum. I will also likely get a bush hog and maybe a tiller. Kubotas and John Deeres are the most prevalent around here. Don't see much Massey Ferguson/New Holland/Mahindra/Branson. I actually sat on a Mahindra yesterday and didn't like the ergonomics at all. The John Deere dealer is about 2 miles from my house, so that is a plus.
Anyone have one of these (or their many similar brethren)?
