Hi everyone, newbie here. Thought a 1025R is all the tractor I ever need but want to get a new and reasonably priced heated/AC cab, bigger size for bigger root grapple (66-72"), and more lifting capacity to move a 2500 lb scissor lift over lawn/gravel. Was ready to buy a DK4210SE HST Cab but a dealer told me I'd happier going with a turbo engine (4710 or 5310) for extra torque especially if I ever get a bush hog or flail mower.
Appreciate any inputs or suggestions.
And how confident should I be with a DK10SE HST with 2500 lb load on 48" front forks, just lifting it high enough to move it. Or should try lifting it with rear 3 point pallet fork? I will have Rim Guard in the back tires and maybe another 500-800 lbs of rear ballast.
My budget ($35-40K) also permits me to look at used 2018'ish RX7320 or TYM654 which comes with self-leveling loader which I would like to have. No bumper to bumper warranty but will still have some powertrain warranty left.
I am in MD BTW. Thank you.
