Greenwood MO | MoDot mowing tractor trade-in, 2 questions- anything bad about this model? and What JD loader # will fit it? |

Columbia Basin, Ephrata, WA | The hydraulics aren't as good as a 20 series tractor.
Does it have the left hand reverser? That would be a must for loader work, and not all of them had it.

| I have a 6415. Lots of power, comfortable. Hydraulics are crap. They gave problems from the start ($10000 warranty work) and are still slow.3 pt hitch has never worked right. Typical Deere; good engine & transmission & cab, poor hydraulics. Check hydraulic lines under back of cab. Mine were rubbing and blew out at 2500 hrs. EXPENSIVE to replace.

swmn | Have a 6715 with around 5000 hrs on it yeah they only have a 17 GPM hydraulic pump which isn't as big as say a 7410-20 but they will get the job done. Only a few problems with mine the fuel lines leaked but they use the same lines on the 10-20's as well and the cab fan and heater is up in the cab like on the 30-55 series and had a few hose clamps come loose up there and it was raining antifreeze in side the cab.I have a 673 loader on mine and it's a good fit |

North Central Kentucky | We almost bought a 15 a few years back, but decided against it as we wanted a tractor capsble of being a backup tractor for bean vacuum planter. We had to get a 20 series at that time to get closed center hydraulics. That may or may not be important depending on your application. I believe they had 640 loaders on them at that time, may have went to 673 later. |

Black Hawk County, IA | Exdairy, is your 6715 2wd, or mfwd? We have one that needs a loader, I thought a 673 would fit but my dealer says 740 only. Just curious. TIA J |

Willacoochee, GA | We have 2, 1 with the synchro transmission and one with the power quad with left hand reverser. Both are open station and for what they are we like them. Pull a 5 bottom switch plow, with one and widen one out for tobacco. No heavy hydraulic work with either but good chore tractors. |

swmn | Mine is mfwd a 740 loader would be a bit much for the tractor but have seen them with one |
