what are the pro's / con's of each. I know they aren't all the same size but close enough for what I need. I like the trans setup on the 6300 the best it has the power quad setup. the 2555 has the 2 speed power shift high low setup on it. all are equipped with MFD and loaders. just looking for some opinions.

I have the narrow version, 5525n. Same engine, 24 x 24 transmission (it has the splitter.) Plenty of power, good hydraulics (95 litres per minute.) In 8 years only one major issue and that was the computer recently giving up. I don't have a loader but the Powr Reverser works well. Mine tows a spray tank and does a lot a tillage work.
Big difference I can see in the three is the 5525 has open centre hydraulics and the other two have closed centre hydraulics.

You don't mention what you plan to use them for, or if they have cabs. As Rambo33 mentions, the 5525 is the only one with open center hydraulics, so that is definitely a factor depending on what you want to do. The 2555 would be my choice if open station and loader work is primary purpose. Cabs on 2555 are considerably smaller than the 5525 and 6300. The 6300 will have the superior hydraulics of all the models. If doing field work, the powerquad is hard to beat, so that would be my choice for field work. The 5525 is a good tractor as well, but my personal preference would be the 2555 or 6300.

Don't know much about them models, but you are looking at 3 models, one that could be a few years old, to one that could be 30 years old. And probably a good difference in price too.

If size is not a factor the 6300. Best trans, built heavy. My next choice the 5525 only because I would not want the collar shift the 2555 has even with the HI/LO.
