3520 or 3720??

Go big or don't go at all !!

With that amount of land, I would go for the largest size I could afford, but alot really depends on what you plan to do with it, which you have not mentioned.

Well I have a loader, mower and tiller and my 2520 is fine for my 11.5 acres. Have not yet had a need for a backhoe.

My mower is the 72" version, which is one of the main reasons I wanted at least a 2520 as I wanted the biggest deck that JD sold. I am very happy with it and would highly recommend it, if it will fit the tractors you are considering.

I also have a 5ft bush hog and the 2520 is fine. This is an area where more power would be needed for a larger bush hog. With as many acres as you are talking, I would think a bush hog would be in your future, so going with the larger tractor would let you run that much larger of a bush hog.

Going larger would also let you run a baler if you need some hay for those horses.

If you have got a good dealer around, I would go take a close look and talk to the salesman about your needs. Some of them can be very helpful. Not all of them are just trying to make a buck and sell you what you don't need.
