I currently have a TC29D with 1700 hours; it’s my 1st 4-wheel tractor and it had been great for moving material and mowing my small (1 acre) home property which is heavily planted (annual garden + permaculture) however
I am thinking of upgrading in terms of weight and power in order to be able to handle more work including managing our woodlot (100 acres of northern hardwoods on a separate parcel). I would likely be doing some road maintenance (the woodlot is served by a class 4 access road which the town stopped maintaining decades ago) and, locally, sap gathering, brush mowing and trail maintenance including drainage work (we have a lovely co-op trail network through a sugarbush neighboring our home).

A local reseller has a 2015 Boomer 46D that seems like a no brainer in terms of weight (2T), hp, hours (under 300) and price of $24k. It seems to have a linked throttle/accelerator (“easydrive CVT”) with a shuttle shift, which I feel I will be fine with -seems like one step removed from Hydrostatic in terms of operation. Anything I should know about these particular machines? Does this CVT have a good track record? Is this tractor a good choice for the tasks described?

-thank you for reading!
