    Mowing R-4 tires and grass cutting

    I mow with a GL3240 HST 72" mmm with turfs. This tractor is fairly heavy but with the displacement of the turfs there is little track. Previously I had a B2710 with R-4s and got along mowing fine as well. I will say after having both sets of tires I prefer the turfs. Good luck.

    L3240/3540 with MMM

    Like you I have been looking at the 40 series tractors. The 3240 and 3540 will not accomodate a mmm with R-4's. You will have to step up to the 3940 to obtain R-4's and mmm. I have been looking for the last year at these machines and still haven't pulled the trigger yet but they are great...

    Mowing Advice as to mowing machine?

    John, is your JD 3720 your primary lawn mower for your 4 acres? I currently have a 72" mmm and think I would prefer the mmm on a new tractor vs. rfm due to not having to look back all the time. My wife thinks I am crazy wanting to move into a much larger tractor. Maybe so?? But, I like the...

    2 Kubotas would be great!!! Unfortunately, the task at hand would only dictate one machine. I may just have to rethink my mission and keep the B2710! A great tractor but like anyone - bigger appears to be better - maybe NOT!! Many thanks!

    Mowing  GL3940HST w/ MMM or Rear Finish Mower?

    Not to duplicate as I have placed this question in the "buying/pricing" forum. I am curious of those GL series owners that have experience with MMM vs. RFM. Is the weight of the tractor a concern? I am looking at this tractor to be a multiple use tractor to maintain roughly 400' of gravel...

    Thanks for the reply. This will be a multiple use tractor. I would want R-4's due to the additional tasks - ie: maintaining a 400' gravel drive, tilling, bushhoging roughly 2 additional acres and some landscaping. I would be concerned that the turf tires would not be up for the challenge. I...
