The Land Pride 1672 is not heavy duty enough for the size tractor you are getting. I have that exact mower and have already bent the metal flanges that the 3 pt hitch connects to. Land Pride rates the 1672 for 15 - 30 HP tractors. You will do better with the FDR 2572 that is a 15 - 50 HP mower. Good luck.

If you're interested there's still some MX5100HST's on some dealers lots. After seeing the DPF under the hood sitting beside the fuel tank with a thin heat shield between them my and wife decided the MX5200 was not for them. The MX5100 doesn't need Regen cycles either. I think they paid like $22,500 for just the tractor and then added on what they wanted. It takes some searching but they can be found. Dealers will run a search for you and most will find nothing because dealers have pulled them from the Kubota inventory search. Took me about 2 days of phone calls to locate 12 of them about 2 months ago. Two of them were about 3 hours away. I think the total was $28,500 for the tractor, R4 tires, LA1065 loader, W.R. Long 3rd function and one set of rear remotes.

I agree. MX5100 is one of the LAST good ones. Find it if you can. I did and it will always be the last good one...

I'd look for a smaller used tractor. As previously stated, big tractors can tear up light duty implements. What do you have planned for work that requires such a large machine?
