JCM 9,136 #1 Posted December 12, 2021 Found a few pictures of the Horse and Deere together. I realized once relocating to Maine I would need a bigger tractor to be able to tackle larger tasks. Unfortunately storage becomes an issue and I do not like leaving much to the elements. The Kwik- Way served me well and do miss it for the lighter tasks but when the job requires a little more power I go diesel. 2009 3320. 3 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 48,815 #2 Posted December 12, 2021 (edited) I hear ya Plunge....your reasoning on going with turf tires instead of R-4s? Edited December 12, 2021 by WHX?? speeling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCM 9,136 #3 Posted December 12, 2021 Bought this used from the original owner with 383 hrs. I actually wanted R-4's but the more people I spoke with regarding the two they all recommended the turfs. And I can honestly say with the weight box and 4 wheel drive that combination works extremely well. @WHX?? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WheelhorseBob 1,549 #4 Posted December 23, 2021 I have a Kwik way and love it but it is more of a power wheelbarrow. If I had the need for more I would go with a Deere, kubota or Kioti. Very nice machine btw. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCM 9,136 #5 Posted January 30, 2022 Out today cleaning up with the JD 3320 and finishing up with the 417-8 with 48'' dozer blade. Hope to get to the trail system this week to keep it open for Winter trail rides. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCM 9,136 #6 Posted December 20, 2022 This Winter is the first time since 1989 that I did not have any of my 8 running WH tractors ready for snow removal so out came the JD. This past weekends storm would have worked them hard anyway and they have never failed me so I figured they needed a break. This was a solid 10'' of wet snow. Recently bought a cab for the JD but have not installed it yet, waiting on 2 , 8' foot overhead doors with openers to be installed. This tractor has a 3 range Hydro trans and I usually plow in A range but because of the weight of the snow B range worked better, needed slightly more headway speed. Never had snow stick like that and stay in the bucket while traveling to dump it. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
