XU6158C and XR4155C

[Nissan197]

I am looking at the above models and am leaning towards the 6158. It costs a little more, but specs out quite a bit more than the 4155. I am upgrading from a Mahindra 3215, which has been a very good tractor. I have checked out Mahindra, Kioti, and LS and it appears you get more options for less money with the LS compared to the others. The price I was quoted was right around $32K. Seems like a fair price. I appreciate any opinions on the above models and if that price seems reasonable. Thanks.

I just noticed I posted in the wrong area. It should be in the Pricing/Buying section. Admin - please move if needed.

What will you be using it for

Currently I have a sickle mower that I cut brome grass with, pull a bar rake, and operate a small square baler. Although the 3215 has been able to handle haying the last three seasons the weight of the mower and baler are starting to take its toll. I also use a box blade at times along with a rotary cutter. I will be adding a few head of cattle in the near future and may start going with round bales.

Then I would think that the only reason for you to go with the 4155 over the 6158, would be transmission choice. If you want hydrostatic, you'll have to go with the 4155. If you don't want hydrostatic, then I can't see many reasons to go with the 4155 over the 6158.
