John Deere Tractors Garden tractor
why old John Deere green tractors are a better investment than new. My 20 year old John Deere 332 diesel garden tractor will last forever if I maintain it. John Deere mowers mow and mow.

I have a 332 it’s actually my second, It has 600 hrs on it and is a 1990. The one I had before had over 2800 hrs on it and ran like a champ the whole time I owned it. I also have a 316 w/onan motor again nice tractor but my 332 is a beast.
That is very cool! Great choice!
Nice mower. Kind of funny, I saw this video about a month ago just messing around in youtube, and found the same series as yours for sale. I went and looked at it at a JD dealer and bought it. the motor has been re-man with about 50 hours on it. They are truly a mowing machine.
oh and i have nothing against john deere just their newer crap that don’t last i do have a 210 and a 316 and they still run good my 316 is one of the rare ones that has a kohler in it it was made in 1978 the first year they came out and the only year they made the 316 with a kohler they discontinued them untill the early 80’s but they put the onan in them when they brought them back i love the older ones just hate the newer ones they don’t make em like they used to great vid 5 stars
i have a 05 craftsman lt2000 automatic and it has 400hrs on it runs like the day i bought it and i have a 03 john deere L120 and it is junk smokes so bad u can’t see a dang thing in front of u when it is running and it only has 200 hrs on it deere makes so many models the bigger garden tractor models like this one are better built because they are made for alot of stuff and cost alot more but mowing ur yard craftman is better than the newer 100-200series john deeres them diesels last forever
oh and another thing this lawn mower is way more hightech then alot of them today if it was mine i would keep it
seems more like a tractor not ment for mowing that thing is awesome i would buy it
Oh the irony. I had a Kubota G5200 as well. The superiority of the JD over the Kubota is one of the reasons I made this vid. The JD is so much more of a machine. The JD weighs about 300lbs. more and is just more solid in every aspect. Do a side by side comparo and the Kubota doesn’t come close. This was my first Deere and I’m blown away with how heavy duty this thing is.
Buy a Kubota. Better deal and runs just as good if not better than a JD. JD is all hype and paying for the name.
I meant the 430 is not necessarily better as it is too big for some people.
Nice Tractor – maybe the best ever. The 430 is bigger but necessarily better for many people. The 318 is solid too. Had many of these units but now upgraded to a New Holland TC25D. Miss the old Deere and if I could afford it I would get a 430.
Yeah, the 322 has a cult like following, that is the smoothest engine ever put in a garden tractor. And it’s the toughest gas engine you’ll find since it’s basically the 3 cylinder Yanmar diesel converted to a gas.
hey i gotta say y’all really know what ur talkin bout i just bought me a JD LX 255 ‘01 for $900 and im so happy that i went with JD i had a used ‘98 Craftsman and it only ran a year for me thanks for keepin the JD tradition alive boys and keep on mowin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, I’m in Minnesota also
I have an ‘87 322 gas powered Yanmar and I love it. Also have all the attachments – snowblower, tiller, mower deck, front and rear blades.
The best investment I’ve ever made.
Need a carrier and axles out of the rear end of one of those they are a little bit stronger then the ih cubs seeing as they are a Dana30 would like to put one in my pulling cub
hi, you commuacated w/ me last yr. i have the 330. um ive made some vids i would like to call to your attation. their under small diesel engine. you may like. check them out.
you can never beat an old deere.
Sweet, a cab and blower. It would be so nice to not have the snow blowing back on you. 1450 hrs and running strong!
Nice tractor I have a 332 as well with a 50 inch deck, 42 inch rototiller,48 inch snowblower and a cab and it has 1450 hrs on it and still running strong.
I’m sure he’s seen the result of cost cutting and outsourcing the parts and labor to other countries.
the local cub dealer was yelling at a customer on the phone one day when i walked in– new=cheap crap -the dealer is the customer service rep fielding calls from irate customers-bigwigs always want to make a tractor cheaper for more money in their pockets
ahaw yea always. im looking for deck spindles. but too ive got some new dealer parts for jd. maybe ill post mine eventualy.
sounds like you’ve turned a wrench or two in your life. Good job saving an old deere from the scrap heap.
hi tunk, i own a 330 diesel. the only difference is 2 pedal brake power steering dual wet lines. thats about all. same motor and deck drives. this machine is a salvage wonder. i bought it resonably cheap w/ a mildly seized engine. after it was unseized the timing was out both injection pump and cam. had that straighted out the crank was a little out of round 1 jernal made a fast fix to it and runs great. has been in service for 1 yr. look i have parts for john deere tractors willing to sell.
