I presently own a 4wd, 3120 which I like a lot, but I am considering something with a little more HP. I want to stay with a hydro trans and 4wd. I was wondering what you though thought of the pros and cons of the 3720 versus a 4700. I have done the actual comparison on tractordata, so I know the spec differences. The 4700 is an older model with no turbo and 4 cylinder. The 3720 has a turbo and is a 3 cylinder with less cubic inches.

What are your thoughts ?

I bought the 3720 yesterday. It seemed like the best fit for me. The taller stance with taller tires and the extra 15 of HP are great.

The 4700 is 48hp large frame cut and the 3720 is 44hp medium frame cut. Quite a bit of difference between the two. Not sure where your getting the extra 15hp out of the 3720?

I think he is comparing the 3720 to his 3120

Aahh yes, got that after I reread his original post a few more times.
