In Reply to: Re: John Deere 318 or 445? posted by Howard on Monday, April 02, 2001:
: : I am looking at a couple of used tractors to replace my C-120 WheelHorse. (The old horse finally died)
: : I am considering a 318 with 750 hrs or 445 with about 500 hrs. The 318 is going for about $4k, I do not know on the 445.
: : What are the recommendations? I have 3 acres to mow with some hills and a 250 ft drive to blow.
: : Thanks
: I suggest you look at a front mount machine such as a Kubota F2100 or F2400 4wd but not a JD 935. For snowblowing you want a two stage snowblower and a metal (not canvas) heated cab. There are lots of good used machines available at reasonable prices.
hi just got a 445 jd had a 420 and 110 this new 445 is so cool with fuel injection. no choke to contend with.the ergonomics are the best
