Welcome to TBN.

Congrats on the new tractor. Rare to see a 2wd L series. My Cousin has a 2wd MX which is also rare. When you can post pics.

Yes, that is a very nice tractor. If need be, toss on some front weights and you'll be good for 99% of what a FWA is used for. I have long argued that the "sleeper" tractors out there are the new made 2WD versions. Please post some pics.

Yes the two wheel drive is hard to find. I have a sawmill and use a 3000 lb pallet lift on the back for loading logs on the mill. Front end loader will only lift 1500lbs while the rear lift will pick up 3000 lbs. I have a brown 5 foot mower, finish mower, disc, and box blade. I had water put in all 4 tires but drained it back out because it rode so rough.

Sure can save a LOT of money by getting a 2wd.
Like most here, I'd be permanently stuck without 4wd....

I live on top of a hill. I can syphon out my 6' below the ground septic tank with a 100' water hose. Not much mud on this sandy hill.

I'll go out on a limb and saw these newer 2WD tractors will be collector items of the future because so few are being made.

Mine would go to the bottom of my big hill, and that is where it would stay.

I had and used a 2wd tractor when I lived on flat land up by Willard, and it worked pretty well. Down here in Branson with our steep terrain it would be totally useless.

Is there a difference in the build of a 2wd tractor from the 4wd? Used to be the older tractors had a ton of weight to help with traction, most of the newer ones are lighter.
