Comparison Deere 4300 vs New Holland T1510

[swedish-fish]

Hi all,
I’m looking for opinions on this comparison. I’m considering my options for getting a 4x4 tractor with loader. I found these two at comparable price near me at $13k. Originally I was thinking a 20-26 hp tractor (Kioti ck20s or Deere 755), but for a little extra seems I could get something more capable for not much bigger size.

4300
Hours: 700
HST transmission
Industrial R4 tires
420 loader
Comes with belly mower (72” he thinks)
Rear remotes

T1510
2008 year manufactured
Hours: 190
R4 tires
Overall looks clean
No implements other than 110TL loader

About my expected use...

Moving firewood.
Pulling a 5’ box blade which I have.
Turning compost pile.
Wood chipper (6”)
Moving wood chips, mulch
Bush hogging
Finish mowing... eh, not so much. Lawn mower does that.
Moving heavy object on/off trailer and truck. I’d love to get a set of forks. Recently could have used it to move 28” locust rounds off my trailer.
Possible front mount snowblower in future.

In terms of dealers near me-
Deere, Kioti, Bobcat
Also, I’m pretty handy with a wrench.

I've had a couple New Hollands and a few Deere.....Deere is my choice

Those are both nice machines. Tough choice....

OK, the Deere. It's known to be a good model. As you are a mechanical guy, you know the importance of getting one of the "good" models. Some even turn into classics. Who knows if that one will, but it does have a great engine & tranny plus that loader is already a classic. The 4300 would be a good machine to plan on keeping a long time. I'd move on it quickly. Especially with such low hours and those tires.
luck, rScotty
