2019 Massey 1735M.

Bruce on Tractor · May 19, 2019

2019 Massey 1735M. I had a John Deere 4310, I sold that and bought a Kioti, the hydraulics sucked on that so I traded it in for the 1735M. This tractor is really everything I needed and wanted, it's amazing. I only have 15 hours on this tractor but I have no problems. I'll post the link to YouTube that shows part one and part two of my review along with a couple other things I have did with it and to it.

Bruce, Curious what you didn't like about the Kioti and what model did and year did you have? Just curious as my 2.5 yr tractor shopping research has me changing my mind weekly. T

2019 CK3510SE HC. They started using a cheap hydraulic valve so that the hydraulics would fade quickly and it took them time to recover. The three-point was the worst jerked violently if you tried to bring it up slowly which I use my three point a lot slowly. It was the same dealer so he worked with me I only had 16 hours on the Kioti and he took it back at full price.

Thanks Bruce, deciding on a tractor has been zero fun!

Agreed! It was worse than deciding on a car, LOL. I, usually, have a good idea on what I want when it’s time to buy a car, but getting into a tractor, which was new territory for me (outside of wanting a new Cub Cadet, initially) was a load of research and shopping around. From Green and Orange to a few shades of Red and Blue, it was starting to make my head spin. Features for dollars, and AGCO’s 0.99% for 84 months, were the deciding factors. It allowed us to get more for less than any of the others. A great dealer was icing on the cake. Yanmar was running a close second, and Mahindra was third. We could’ve purchased a leftover ‘18 eMax 20s TLB for around $18,000, which was tempting, but the payments would’ve been similar to what we got on the ‘19 GC1725M TLB. Known warranty claim issues with Mahindra is what pushed us to look elsewhere.

I loved the Yanmar's when I looked but the price in my area was out of sight. The local (only) Yanmar dealer was looking for $23k for their smallest TLB with a mower deck... $5k more than I paid for my 1710TLB.

You make some great videos except for the narrow width viewpoint. I'd love to see more of what you are doing with the tractor.

Nice video of the 1735m, I pick my 1705 up in the morning from the dealer and I’m already looking at the 1734e or possibly the 1734 premium not sure but that’s in a few years not unless my wife opens up the book a bit more for me hahaha but I only have 12.7 acres in which I mow about 6 acres so I’m ok for now maybe um aw will see in about 10 hours.

For 12 acres I probably would have looked at the 1526 with it's 60" deck and 3 range hydrostatic transmission to get around the space. 1705 is a beautiful machine (I have a 1710) none the less and I'm sure you'll be happy with it
