Thoughts on Deere 2155 or similar tractors.

Posted by The Famous Grouse on March 26, 2020 at 08:57:30 from (71.34.2.90):

Wanted to get some opinions on the Deere 2155 series or similar Deere / other brand tractors.

I have 120 acre farm that I use exclusively for hunting and recreation. I have over 10 acres of fields that are planted in clover and annual food plot crops. I also plant winter rye every year. Everything is done for the wildlife.

I have rocky ground, so picking and moving rock is an ongoing hassle and I have to have a loader to do it. I also have a 8 foot disc, 6 foot brush hog, and a single tooth ripper.

Currently, I have an ancient Deere 2010 gasser. It works fine, has a decent loader, and basically everything works on it. Like most old tractors, it needs a lot of wrenching because old stuff just breaks.

I'm looking down the road toward the point where it just makes more sense to replace the 2010 and I want to buy before something big blows up on the 10 and then I've got no tractor.

I don't want a compact, so I'm looking at the utility tractors from 40 to 60 HP and built after 1980 or so. Want to keep it under 12k with loader.

The 2155 really looks very close to what I want, so...

Comments and (preferred) actual experience with this machine? Good? Bad?

If this was a not-so-great machine, what's the better choice in this HP and vintage?

Common failure points and things to check out?

And guys with experience with other colors, if you have a slam dunk option in the same HP / year / size range, go ahead. My main reason for buying Deere is that parts are readily available. I'm not tied to any brand for anything.

Many thanks.

Grouse

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o ... [Read Article]
