What Tractor do I need?
Hi Ken, it sounds like you need a Kubota. I have a B2910 that I am very happy with if I were you I would go look at a 3010 or larger size tractor. The 3010 if I remember right is a gear tractor not HST. After test driving a gear tractor and a HST I would go for the HST. I live in the Olathe area and would let you take a test drive if you want. I do alot of field mowing and landscape work with mine. I have a front end loader, a brush hog, finish mower, and a rear dump bucket for my tractor. I can even recommend a good Kubota dealer if you are interested.

What Tractor do I need?
I drove a used 855 JD that was hydrostat and thats what sold me on the
hydro. I did not drive a 4000 series but have seen a lot of negative posts
on this board about reliability issues on that model. The used 855 was more
than I paid for a new B2910. I have run the B2910 for 10-12 hours at a time
with no problems what so ever. I bent a piece of the 3 point arm backing
into a house and my dealer took one off another tractor on the lot and had
me up and going in just a few minutes. I was going to buy a JD 790 when I
started my side business and drove the used 855. Than I drove the B2910 at
the Kubota dealer and that was enough to convince me. For the price a JD
790 or a 990 is a heckuva deal. They are both good tractors. The 990 would
be a good tractor for your size acreage. I mow around 15 acres in sections
commercially and wish I had the power to run a 6 or 7 foot brush hog. I
dont know what a Kubota L3010 goes for but I guess it would be a little
less or the same price as a 990. I paid $14k for my B2910. I think I paid a
few hundred dollars more than I would have in a more rural area but my
dealer is 5 minutes from my house and always takes care of me first. A used
bigger horsepower tractor would be better than lower hp tractor that was
new. I should be out mowing on the 28th in the evening if
you would like to take a test drive.
