All I can say so far about the 2720 is it is awesome for mowing around here. It really feels solid, quiet and mows fast with enough of power for both of us. We have not really tried the bucket out but in time, it will be used.
I finally got to mow with the 2720 today and I made sure my wife had to use the 425 for all the other places I can't get too. I also really like the belly mount mower - it mows the front yard as good as the 425. I think she will have a race to the 2720 next time, so I don't get it first!
Aagain thanks to the members who answered questions about which compact to get! We are very happy with it. :)

Glad to hear that your new tractor is meeting/exceeding your expectations!

Thanks for the great picture, too! Very impressive lawn! :) :) I'll bet you could squeeze a par 4 in that long stretch..

I have no idea what is up with John Deere management. They change model numbers and grilles every ten minutes. I have a 4110, 2004 model. When I go for parts at the dealer they thumb through several parts catalogs looking for the " old model ". I would bet a fair amount the major driveline parts are the same for 4-5 models. The displacement difference in the yanmar motors is so insignificent it hardly pays to seperate them on the assembly line. Sometimes hp ratings are so close it is dependant on rpm range to make the difference.
Someone from general motors must have taken over recently as this has been their game for years. Now that the public is aware of their price vs quality individual brands will disappear leaving dealers with empty showrooms.

If the company thinks I'm going to trade tractors to get the latest plastic grille change ..... they may be in for a surprise. This whole deal reminds me of a shell game. You don't know what you will get til you find the nut !

Sorry about the rant.... just ruffles my feathers at times.

Nice to know you have a pair Lee.......... to mow with. That leaves the third one to run for refreshments with. I'm smiling with you, :D, and not at you....... life's too short for that.

In the summer, my dad and I mow the back pasture. I get on the Johndeere 3720 and he gets on the Johndeere L110. I clear a 6 foot path at a time and he gets a 42'' path. Im 13 but im the best operator on the 3720. Im the only one who knows how to self level the bucket, steer into place and switch into high gear all at the same time at 7 mph (with the seatbelt on :)) and the ROPS up for safety.
