I am looking at a new 3039r cab and have a few questions for those that may have some input. first the R4 tires, JD offers two types of R4's other than the ply rating what is the difference (the lighter ply tire looks to me to maybe be more rounded on the edges which may tear up turf less )...

I am looking to buy a larger machine for hay making and I am leaning towards the TN75D over the M6800. I like Kubota and am currently using a L4310, but it just is not heavy enough for safely pulling a bailer & wagon. The price I got for the TN75D w/4x4,std 16x16, & loader valve (no loader) is...
