soon to be the proud owner of a 2011 JD 4120 utility tractor
By Glen Hazelwood(Owner), Sep. 25, 2011
I still have my 1967 Case 530 tractor and in 2009 I added a new John Deere 4120. I got the loader, front fenders and rear fender extensions, dual hydraulic outlet on the rear, and my favorite option, the hydrostatic transmission.
All the fear I ever had about a hydrostatic trans disappe

ared after using this the first time. After two years I would hate to use anything else. I grade a half mile driveway which half is uphill at 30 to 40 degree grade. The control I have with this tractor is incredible. My old 4 speed 3 range transmission is unable to compete with the usefulness and versatility of the hydro.
I really like my old Case but I haven't used it since I got the John Deere. I wore out the brakes on the case every 8 to 10 years. I haven't had to use the brakes on the John Deere except a couple of times just to make sure they work. I don't see how they could ever wear out.
I tried out several brands when I started looking for a new tractor. JD was the last one I thought I ever want and the last one I tried out. Ease of use, comfort, and quality on the JD sold me and I'm very very happy. I hate to get off of it and Look for excused just to get on it. I haven't done it justice in this review. I just don't have the time to put it all down.
Just because I can and because I am so happy with this tractor, I have started the deal on a new 2011 4120.
