Hi, guys. Long term lurker, first time poster here. I just wanted to say thank you for the invaluable information I found here that helped me make my decision.
I have 48 acres. Thirty-eight of which are wooded. The ten cleared acres are a mix of pasture, ponds, gardens and home site. I have an 800' driveway and about 700' of drainage ditch to maintain, as well.
Most of the work I've done so far have been done by a 1949 Ford 8N and my brother's JD 3203.
The little JD has done most of what I needed, but I knew it was a little too small. I started my search with the L3901 and walked up from there. Ultimately, I found an MX5200 for what I think is a great deal.
I also got the loader, box blade, and pallet forks at the same time.

Welcome to the Kubota family.

I have a L3901DT, I was afraid that anything bigger would be hard to get around in our wood. Most of the trails where made when I was using a Ford 2000. Some of my corners are a little tight and I have had to cut down some trees to make it easier to get around them.

I thought about that, but figured that was the lesser of two evils when compared to being too small to skid out trees. The little JD was definitely not up to the task.
