i'll have to get a picture of me poping a wheelie on my john deere. fill the bags with grass, get some good traction and a hyrdostatic tranny and you can do it. its on its second motor and like 200th drive belt....i wonder why it keeps breaking. i slammed down really hard one day and broke the hood off and a hinge on the deck.

Thanks, but with my steep hills, that just wouldn't get the job done. If I were to get something, I'd be looking in the 25-30 hp range.

haha yea, before I bought my lawntractor, I looked pretty hard at buying an ATV and then just getting a pull behind mower. But everytime I priced out the ATV I wanted, it was about 9 grand, lol.

and zuzuman, I used to drive my grampa's JD all over the place... if you actually got it on pavement with those sticky tires and dropped the clutch, you could easily get them tires way up!

a combine might be a little much. i know JD makes some real nice(and expensive too) mid size 40-50hp tactors. for all that yard, i'd just use a PTO brush hog and use the lawn tractor around the house.
maybe something smaller like this 3320:


im a big JD fan, but if you're looking somethin with some power, id go for a International 1066

yea, I'm hoping to pay off my X this fall... once that happens I'm gonna save up a couple grand and take on another loan. I've seen a couple tractors that were tempting, but if I'm gonna spend 5 grand for something from the 40's, I might as well make that a downpayment and get something from the last decade or so.

hehe, I worked for my granduncle a couple of summers driving a big old JD 9600 combine. I joke with him saying I'll buy it for 2 grand... that thing would get my grass cut in no time!

That thing reminds me of the movie "Moving" with Richard Prier, but it was a lawn mover.
