2210 vs X595

   / 2210 vs X595 #11  
There is one big difference between the two that might be a big deal to you - depending on how 'fine' a lawn you have (and want to keep), how wet (soft) your property is, and how heavy of other jobs you want to do. Weight. The 2210 weighs half again as much as an X-series. That could be bad or good depending on your priorities but something to consider.

Another distingusing characteristic - the 2210 is diesel only, but the X-series does offer the gas-powered water-cooled version in addition to the diesel. I think nearly everyone here on TBN would prefer the diesel for many reasons, but there are some minor advantages to the water-cooled gas engine. I haven't compared them but it's supposed to be noticeably quieter than the diesel, and you can use plain unleaded and not have to have extra cans of diesel around (and search out a place convenient to buy it) and it may be a little less fuss to deal with in cold weather (think snow-blowing). It will also be a LOT thirstier than the diesel however.

What are you talking about, the 2210 weighs more than an X-series. This is right from the JD spec sheet:

X595 4WD - Approximate Net Weight 498kg (1095 lb)

2210 - Machine equipped with a ROPS, 3-point hitch, standard R1 tires and all fluids. 635 kg (1400 lb)

Please post real facts for people who are looking for real answers not bogus "facts"

You're just kidding.... Right? If you re-read his post it says half again as much... meaning more, much more.

Hmm that's not the way I took it, I would have worded that differently. Anyway, the weight disparity is not that great, they are within about 300 lbs. of each other. I guess my main point is try to supply actual numbers rather than vague comparisons; and provide where you got the info from always helps back your point.

Not sure why that would be confusing terminolgy - I thought it's was a reasonable seat-of-the-pants comparison.

As far as the weight difference being significant - it's not the absolute, it's the relative % difference. The X-series in all weighs from 830 lbs (2wd air-cooled X465) to 1125 lbs (4wd X595 diesel). Add in the mid-mount mower and you have a range of a minimum of 1038 lbs (X465 w/48" deck) up to 1402 lbs (X595 w/62" deck).

A 2210 weighs 1400 lbs., plus either 218 (54") or 277 (62") lbs for the decks - totals of 1618 lbs. or 1677 lbs.

No - that's not a lot, but it is also from 20% to as much as 54% heavier to get similar cut widths. True, that last number is not stricly apples-to-apples (a 2210 w/54" deck vs. a X465 w/54" deck) but nothing Steve has said screams CUT or SCUT yet. Or even for that matter a mandate for 4wd (hence my X400-inclusion for comparison purposes for now). In fact, he stated 'primary use will be mowing' and 'spending too much time mowing the grass'. And some folks are very particular over how much lawn marking they are happy with - so a little weight might go a long way.

Considering the price of the X-series, the 2210 is probably a better 'value', but it could still be the wrong horse for his course.

...and those are Deere factory spec sheet numbers.

One thing to be aware of, if you buy a garden tractor you need to be aware of the resale value. Because of subcompacts used garden tractors are worth very little used. I just had a customer with a Deere 455 who lost 74% of what he paid in just 3 years (13k to $3500). This is not limited to Deere, but applies to all brands.

Hey Neil,
I will buy every JD 455 that you can ship me for $3500. They go for about twice that around here. Start loading them up.

Me too - I'll take a couple. I was amazed what they were going for around here. Very used machines for $4000 or more. I never saw anything in the larger Deere GT that I thought was inexpensive. Wheelhorse, especially the older ones seemed to be pricey as well.

Boy is that right. I talked to the JD dealer about trading my X585 (3months, 35 hrs) for a new 2210. They only wanted to give $8500.00 for the X585 and charge me 14700 for the 2210/FEL. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
