Traded 2014 J2023H for 2016 XG3032-4L

Traded my 2014 LS J2023H w/ 50" Loader and AG mini grapple for 2016 LS XG3032-4L w/ 60" loader and 60" AG grapple.

I loved the J2023H but for the majority of work I do which is pushing over cedar trees and lifting the root balls up out of the ground I need a tractor with a bigger foot print and some added power. Uneven and bumpy terrain is the norm here and the J2023H just seemed like it wanted to tip over too much. I just couldn't stop thinking about my grandson using it and thinking it may turn ocer with him.

I loved the hydrostatic tranny on the smaller tractor, however, the shuttle-shift on the 3032 will do a better job at pushing over trees.

I have the 3024 . It is a workhorse horse.

I have done everything except the culverts in about a 100 hrs

Nice job on clearing the property. Great photo album.

I have spent last two days clearing and burning. I hire a bobcat and operator to uproot cedar. I use grapple to move to burn piles. The bobcat is faster at taking out the larger cedars and small oaks.

This system works pretty well for me.

I am coming up on 50 hours and have only good to say about this tractor. There is one minor inconvenience and that is the regen feature every few hours that takes about 30 minutes to complete.

When the tractor is shut down during the regen cycle and allowed to cool it seems to take forever for the regen to complete when the engine is restarted.

Thank you that is only what will be the front yard and driveway, I should have said 3025. I do not have regen. Eventually I will have to use something bigger. I can hire a bobcat ant operator for 600 a day or rent on for 250 for the weekend
