I have a chance to buy a JD 2010 and a MM jet star. Which would be better for general mowing and loader work. I have some hills so would like to have a stable machine. The JD is a tricycle but seems very heavy in the rear. There is a guy with lots of MM parts close so I dont know. I figure the JD would have better resale but have heard the 2010 has a few bugs. Help!

Thanks

I asked the JD parts guy about a 1010 I was interested in (I dealt there for work--I couldn't and still cant afford green paint) He told me to steer clear of it, said, it was one of the two worst tractors Deere ever made. Guess what the other one was--2010. Just telling what I was told JD guys.

I don't know anything about either tractor, but I don't think a tricycle, loader, and hills are a good combination. Too much excitement for me!

I would stay away from a narrow front end with a loader.

Hi, Curious. While I'm not especially familiar with either tractor, the combination of steep hills, a loader and a tri-cycle (narrow) front sounds like a recipe for anything from over-excitement to disaster to me. I'd take a wide front and still be careful.

Loaders on ANY agricultural with either a narrow front OR a pivoting front axle tractor are at best an attachment and are never going to be as stable as a designed-from-the-ground-up front end loader.

Hope this helps.

You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.
