L4802 or MX5400 to purchase?

If you’re like me, you’d be very happy with the L, but if you go that route on occasion wonder how much happier you would be with an MX.

Funny, I've never wondered how much happier I'd be with an MX. I absolutely see the on-paper benefits as NCL4701 outlined above, but so far I have not once thought I'd be happier with a larger machine. Though, maybe the larger front tires would be nice to smooth out the ride across the pasture - I just figure I have more work to do to smooth things out

Edit: actually, the above isn't 100% true. I have sometimes wondered how I'd feel if I'd gotten a 4060LE instead. More loader capacity, larger frame, but less HP.

I’m not sure what the price difference is between the L4802 vs. MX5400 right now but, I’d be looking at the MX because it’s a more substantial and capable tractor. It’s true the L4802 is a bit smaller but, you’re getting more tractor for your money in the MX. But, if availability is a concern/issue, the L4802 will be a great alternative.

Honestly, you really can’t go wrong with either choice.

Our local dealers have MX tractors on the lots. I think I would call a few other dealers.
