Specifications
Features
Pros
- ✓It's powered by John Deere's own turbocharged PowerTech diesel, a proven farm engine with an excellent reliability record
- ✓The full-size utility frame and 5,555+ lb weight give it real field capability the compact 4-series can't match
- ✓The optional 12/12 PowrReverser power-shuttle is fantastic for loader work and headland turns
- ✓57.6 PTO HP runs big rotary cutters, balers, tillers, and hay equipment on a working farm
- ✓Available with a real climate-controlled cab for all-weather, all-day comfort
- ✓Deere's enormous dealer network, parts availability, and strong resale value are major advantages
- ✓It's a straightforward, durable workhorse that holds up to daily farm use over thousands of hours
- ✓The large 22-gallon tank and stout hitch make it a genuine all-day production tractor
Cons
- ✗It's the value E-series, so it lacks the premium cab, transmission, and hydraulic refinements of the pricier 5M and 5R
- ✗Loaded with a cab and loader it approaches $50K, a serious investment for a smaller operation
- ✗No hydrostatic option, so it's a field and loader tractor, not a finish-mowing or beginner-easy machine
- ✗The base SyncShuttle 9/3 transmission is dated, and the better PowrReverser is a meaningful upcharge
- ✗You pay a Deere premium versus a comparable Kubota M-series or Mahindra utility
- ✗At over 5,500 lbs plus loader it requires a heavy-duty truck and trailer to transport
- ✗The E model's simpler hydraulics limit how many implements you can run at once
- ✗For the price, some buyers feel they should step up to a 5M for the better features and cab
