L3010 or L4610

[bsauter]

I absolutely love my L3010HST. But I have ten acres and take care of around 20 more for other people a few times a year on a for hire basis. If I were in your shoes I wouldn't even think of one. I would definitely go with the 4610. You get more power, weight etc. With 40 acres and what you want to do go as big as you can and start with the impements you need now and get the others when you have the money and need. You'll be glad you did. Good luck and have fun shopping!

Check the loader lift capabilites, in the end, that is the one thing that always limits my use. Throw on a 4N1 bucket and you just added as much as 300lbs that takes away from your useful load. The 4610 has a pretty decent lift capacity for its size, I believe its 850 KG and comes with a 72" bucket. I'm looking at one that has a lift capacity of 1150 KG and even then I still want more.
