RFI: help with tractor shopping.

[Gunner BV]

They delivered John Deere 5055e today. It was a very tough choice and couldn't wait any longer. Came down to:
1. 5055e/Branson 4225
2. 4052M
3. Mx5200
4. Workmaster 50
5. MF 2605

I really liked the Branson, probably more than the one i bought. I went with 5055e w/ 12/12 power reverser (wife's decision on transmission) because 100 mile difference in dealer location and i really got along with them. It was very close. I love it, would have been happy with any of them. Wife added on a RC2084, bale spear and 72 inch box blade. My 9 year old daughter wanted to stay home from school and bush hog.

I really appreciate everyone's help, you really did help a lot.

Finally, someone bought enough tractor, but not too much, the first time.

Very nice tractor. Impressive barn.

Congratulations.
