3650hst power ratio?

[HK45]

Looking at trading In a 2019 6075 for a 3650 hst. The 6075 is to big for my needs. I was wondering how is the power of the 3550 or 3650? I had a kioti nx6010 which was 60hp and it worked out good. I'm just wondering if the 49hp 3650 natural aspirated power ratio to weight feels. Feel strong, sluggish, just rite? Any input appreciated.

I have a 2011 5035 HST with loader and backhoe. She has a old school 49 hp 4 cyl Mahindra built diesel in her. Back when I bought her, she was about the biggest/baddest/heaviest [ 8500+ pounds as she sits ] hydrostatic I could find. But with the huge tires and all that weight, she is a little under powered. But they probably had to keep the HP down to help the HST to last pushing that weight. My 2555 HST has a 3cyl 55hp turbo, but she is not near as heavy built as the 5035, built lighter more like a Kubota frame wise [ about like your NX6010 size ]. Not that the 5035 is too under powered to do stuff, she is a fine tractor. She sure snorts going up a big hill though.

I've not noticed my 2017 3550 HST being underpowered (with the proper expectations that is). I'm not going to be able to go full speed up hill in 3rd high range. With my backhoe on I can't really drive around in high range at all unless it's completely flat. In mid range, with no backhoe, I can move along with no issues. In low range not much can stop it. I cut grass in mid range about half pedal speed, for what its worth.
