Retired chicken farmer
New member
I just sold my JD 4720 tractor with cx400 loader and 448 backhoe which i owned for 16 years. See pic. It has been a great tractor, but i need to replace it. I have narrowed my decision to three models. JD4066, kubota L47 and the M62. I know they are not exactly the same machines, but i used to be a chicken farmer with a large acreage. i no longer have chickens, but still have the acreage and use my machine more as a tool as oppose to a tractor. i plan to do small foundations, landscaping, forklift work and dirt work in the future. Any advice on which would be the better choice. I may need to haul the machine around to all my projects. i would love to hear from a long time JD guy who went orange. I know the JD 4066 would be a great tractor, but a think the Kubota L47 or M62 would be better for certain tasks.
