Please give me your opinion. I want an 830 because...well you know how it is, I just want one!!! I would use it for tractor shows, county fair pulls, parades'... and to mow a 20 acre field at my place about twice a year. Would this unit be capable of pulling a 12' gull-wing mower? Would it destroy the mower gear box? (PUTT PUTT -- PUTT PUTT)
Thanks for your help!

Yes it would probably pull a 12 ft Gull Wing chopper but depending on conditions it MAY NOT be real fast.... I used to have to run in 2nd & 3rd with a 4020-D with a 12 ft. in real heavy grass/weeds... But that gives You more seat time! And YES, the 830 will really raise HECK with the PTO, U-Joints, gearboxes, etc.... I know someone will flame Me and say they've done this & that with 630, 730 & 830 series Deere's and for every one of THOSE responces I can site 10 examples of personal experience where Dad had to loan Out His FARMALL M, or 4010 or ???? or a 730-D was used only on light PTO jobs or someone tore this up with His 630 or whatever. YMMV....830-D was just over 70 HP.... If Deere would have put the OTHER 2 Cylinders IN the engine.... 140 HP.... THAT would have been a tractor!

Thanks for your response. I will probably borrow Dad's 4020 Diesel to do the mowing and save the 830 for shows (that is, if I am ever able to get one!)
