After much comparisons and many sleepless nights I ended up a green machine. JD2720
One owner 758hrs with drive over mower and CX200 JDQA loader for $13k. Hopefully i got a good deal. Getting delivered tomorrow.
So excited:cool2:

Got a lot to learn but so far it seems to be fully functional. Plan to buy a carry all and retro it to make ballast for the loader.

Looks good! :thumbsup:

I think I would look at tidying up those hydraulic lines that are hanging down. Something doesn't seem right there.

They were not in the hanger and had just put the loader on. Definitely missing the shroud over the lines though

That is the way they hang. There is a hanger, but it does not help much. On the one I owned, I drilled a couple holes in the floor board & used a bungee cord to hold the lines up.

Great looking tractor, congrats!! :cool2:

If you have over one acre to mow,, my crystal ball says I see a rear discharge rear finish mower in your future,,, :thumbsup:

That's not the way mine hang. The hangers keep them up nicely. In fact, I have to push them down in order to have enough slack to remove the loader. Your hoses must be routed differently than mine.
Here's an odd thing, with all the pics I have of my 2720, I don't have one of the right side with the loader on.
