What are the big differences between the L5XXX and M5XXX models?

[FTG-05]

I'll be looking to buy my first tractor later this year. Bushhogging and gravel driveway maintenance will be it's primary use among other things.

I prefer slightly used and somewhere between 45 and 50 HP +/-. A FEL is a must, as-is 4WD.

In revieweing the various L5XXX and M5XXX models on TractorData.com, I don't see the differences between the two.

Any reason to pick one over the other, all other things the same?

Thanks,

The L40/60 (grand L)will have more bells and whistles. The M more utility and maybe more weight (proly close, I didn't look?).

L4400 or 4600 (basic L) will be a lot less money. But as large as they offer in the basic L.

Don't rule out the MX4700/5100. These are very good rigs and less money than grand L...

You are going to have to offer a bit more detail, as you have the MX5000/MX5100, M5xxx and M5xxxxSUD special utility.
