Which one has fewer/simpler issues? I want a parade tractor with the New Generation look. Im mechanically capable, but better on gas engines. Thank you for any help.

I dream of my grandson and I driving one in parades together.
 
We had a gas 3010 and a gas 3020. Both had starting issues. Also had a late model diesel 4020 that was a easy start tractor
 
Fewer and simple issues, that would be the JD 1010 gas.. Few problems; easy to work on.. Put on a buddy seat and enjoy???
 
Of the two go with a 1010. If looks is what you are after look at a 1020 or 2020. The were much better tractors. One downfall of the 1010-2010 is the engine used a sleeve deck design instead of individual piston and liners. Tom
 
The 1019 gas and the 2010 gas is basicly the same engine, just different
deck plate and pistons with the 20 having bigger diameter pistons. The 215,
245 and 265 deck plate can be installed in any of the deck plate enjines.

For a parade tractor, I would take a gas 2010 all day every day over a 1010. More room, better steering, more gears, bigger radiator/better cooling system, easier to diagnose/repair ignition issues more quickly.
