I have seen some owners with the same sentiment. Some got lucky and have no issues but most have nothing but issues. Not worth the risk for me. I've narrowed it down to an LX2620 or LX3310 when the time comes.

I have considered a plow/pusher set up for the front. It would most likely do the job just fine (especially because winter here isn't like it used to be when I was a kid) but my only "concern" would be that the easement is a narrow one lane and would eventually end up with large windrows on both...

Yessir. Milton, WI. I'm honestly not sure, the property we purchased has access via a one lane easement that dead ends and splits to 2 different neighboring homes/property so assuming the snow removal responsibilities are shared, I could be blowing up to 1/4 mile. Though it's only 1 lane, so...

After reading everything here (a couple times) and comparing prices/models I think I have settled on searching for a lightly used LX2610 or the newer version LX2620 if I come across one in my searches. Thank you everyone that has commented and tried to help clear things up and for reassuring me...

It was a great tractor. It did everything we asked of it and then some. It also never needed much but it was about as easy it gets to work on. I like the BX series a lot but they are a little bit too small for my needs. If I only had a couple acres to take care of and less heavy-ish lifting it...

And just when I thought I had it figured out :ROFLMAO:

Although it doesn't seem logical, I definitely understand what you mean. I had a 2007 Ram 2500 that turned on a dime. My current F150 turns like a school bus. That clears that up. Looks like the 2501/2501 is off the list. Looks like it is down to the LX's or B. Thanks!

All good points and things to consider. Thanks! I think I'm set on the 3pt mowers regardless of which model tractor I end up with. I would still like to be able to run a front snowblower in the future. I remember reading in a reply here that some will and some wont run a mid pto. I think I'm...

Definitely something I will look into. I am mechanically inclined enough to know that I could do it but the convenience of the the 3pt finish mower sounds like it's tough to beat. There won't be anything tight enough that I can't use a 3pt finish mower. Maybe I'll keep the zero turn and let...

How often do they run financing deals like that? I have seen some in the past and I think that's probably the only way I would splurge for several attachments at once unless I was finding them used on marketplace or other places. 0% is tough to beat and makes looking at new much more appealing.

I loved the 8N for it's size and what it was capable of, whether it was willing or not it always held its own. I don't think I will need a tractor that big anymore. Thank you for all of the input Very good point and something I was not necessarily thinking about. I was only thinking about the...

Makes sense. I am actually not against buying new. I have just always bought everything used my whole life. Trucks, cars, atv/utv's, boats the whole 9. I usually let the first guy take the depreciation hit.

The L2501 looks like a nice tractor. I am just using tractorhouse.com to quickly look up all these recommendations. Maybe I'm not using the filters correctly but I am not seeing an L2502HST? That is my plan, ideally that would be how I will purchase whatever I end up going with. I don't plan...

Good point, while this one would definitely be a lawn mower, it would also be much more than that. I just looked at the L3901 and I don't see myself needing a tractor that large. I think the "B" series is a good fit size wise for our current situation. But I have also recently heard in my...
