The Baddest Garden Tractor Available! Finally, The Return Of My Long Lost John Deere x739! So Happy!

- čas přidán 3. 09. 2019
- I have been lucky enough to be mowing with my old John Deere x739 garden tractor all summer. I bought this tractor new in the fall of 2017 and then sold it to my neighbor in the spring of 2018. After having a change in job roles, he wasn't able to use this tractor...at all! I sold it with 19.9 hours and rented it back out from him this spring with 20.0 hours on it!
Take a look at what the x739 is all about! Let's check out the features found on this tractor including the AutoConnect 60" drive over mower deck and 3 bin material collection system.

Yellow button a factory Horn?
That's a RIO override I believe. Never used it though. I just pullup on the PTO engagement handle.
Thanks for the info 😊
Have had a 739 with 54" deck and HDAP tires for about a year. Love it. Upgraded to it because of steep hills (>20 percent grade). Have about as many hours on it pulling a trailer as I do mowing. Beware that on tight turns in thin grass (we have a lot of shade), the tires easily dig in. Have no problem in the thick grass that's in the sun. No snow equipment -- unnecessary down here in TN. Have arm rests on the standard seat, and they're flipped up more than they're down.
great informative no nonsense video, Thanks!
I'm a fairly new 1025R owner but I see how capable this machine is.
Thanks so much for watching!
This is the video that sold me on the X 739 thank you Chief!!!
Hi Courtney just thought about the washout port I use mine all the time. Before you put the mower away stick your arm under Mower deck (of course mower off) and see how much grass is stuck underneath. That will begin to rust after one season from the build-up. Anyways attached the hose and put the deck all the way down must be on concrete or Blacktop Engage The Blade and run it for two or three minutes. You will be surprise how clean it gets it. Most people try it with the deck up and it will not do anything. Thanks for the video love that tractor
I might just have to give it a try. Maybe it'll be a game changer for me :)
@@GoodWorksTractors
I actually felt like you did about the washout port. And I took it off and then saw someone on CZcams show how to use it. so I put it back on. I use it every time I mow now 2 Acres.
I prefer a lawn tractor over a zero turn. I need the grip for my sloping terrain. I have 495 hrs on my Husqvarna 48 xls. Routine maintenance is the key. I have about 2.25 acres. Nice yard .👍
Should use wash port, keeps deck clean underneath, clumps off grass can get stuck under there and the can make rust, connect garden hose for 5min while blades are on. Then run blades without wash for a few mins to dry.
word of caution with those cleaning ports. I haven't seen it myself but i've heard that using them right after mowing while the bearings are hot can cause water to get sucked into the spindles as they cool back down causing them to go bad.
Glad to see you got your beloved mower back (well, sort of got it back)
I have the little x304 and roughly 66 hours after 4 years. I love the steering, I am 6-7 I hate touching the trimmer. If I can’t drive around it then it gets round up.
😂 glad I'm not alone using the round up
I have a x310 with 175 hrs. and I too use chemical warfare on the dreaded non invited yard growth.
I am 6'3 and I get what your saying about how hard it is to use gas trimmers, bending over is hard on the back.
UNTIL I bought a Makita battery operated trimmer that weighs less than a green frog haha. I will no longer use
a gas powered trimmer... OR... I have a lot more battery operated yard tools once I got on the wrong side of 65.
My 2000 year model 455 leaves my rough country yard looking like a glass table top. 60 inch deck.
I suppose if you live in a neighborhood or town or whatnot and never needed a loader this machine would be great for mowing and snowblowing but in my opinion if your gonna spend almost $10,000 for a lawn mower why not just spend a little more and get a lot more machine in a 1023e or bx and get the mower and a loader and a more capable machine? I use my wash out port thing everytime on the riding mower, that dried grass just stays forever , look at your tires, the underneath of the mower deck looks like that, just layered from everytime you've mowed.
Enjoyed your walk around on your John Deere X739 garden tractor. Bye🚜👍
That’s a badass lawn tractor for what u got to maintain. I love it though
The issue with the 60 inch deck is how it reacts when going over even slightly uneven ground. It will start to gouge the lawn, particularly when you have the blower on the deck with the material collection bags.. You need to fuss with the anti-scalping wheel to see what works best. It should really be easier.
Hey buddy. I have the same tractor also. Love the power and how nimble it is. Love it for mowing and snow blowing. I was trying to sell mine back in March with 18.5 hours on it to get the 1025R, but no real quality offers. But really, this is all I really needed. Thanks for all the videos!
They're such a cool tractor. I love the way they handle!
So i own a X729 w/ 210 hrs that i bought new and i love it . I was looking the other day at a new 738 or 739 and they want $16,000-$17,000 +/- i was like..whatttt? Thanks for the video
Thanks for your great videos! My question is on the X758, 2015 do you know if they have additional wiring harness for plugging in add on lighting? Thx!
Traded in my 06 x540 with 54 inch deck for my 2015 x739 with 60 inch edge deck and have about 160 hours on it just mowing. 4.5 acres of grass with a lot of hills and valleys Never been stuck or even had to use the diff lock something I can't say about my x540. It cut down my cutting time by 25% not only because of deck size but of the great maneuverability and traction, but at the price of really heavy fuel consumption. My only complaint is it seems like it like it uses almost double the fuel as my x540 did. To me a x739 for 1/2 a acre is a bit overkill, does the tractor even get up to running temperature before you put it a way. It has preformed flawlessly with no more than routine maintenance every 50 hours and changing out blades every season. Paid close to 17k Canadian dollars for it and feel it should be diesel powered for that kind of money. Just my 2 cents for any buddy looking into one
Overkill!?!? The heart wants what the heart wants man, haha! I think you are way undersized for mowing 4.5 acres. I'd hate to do that with a garden tractor.
I can't stand the fuel economy. I actually have that in part of a video I haven't put out yet. Absolutely terrible, very frustrating. They've always been fuel hogs though unfortunately.
They stopped producing the diesel version of the x739. Last model was the x749. You can still purchase the x758 which is diesel and MWFD, but not AWS.
I also own a 2 year old X739 with the same equipment, except the bagger. With 350 hours on it, I love it for many of the reasons you mentioned, plus I have used it a number of times to pull out a couple of my stuck Ferris zero turns when the ditches I mow commercially were wetter than I thought. I mow 50 accounts here in central MN. The X739 is also used a lot for my hilly properties, when wet, or when I am mowing steep banks by lakes. Good vid!
In my opinion, this is the best of the X700 series John Deere offers. The only thing that would make it better is if it was a AWS AWD Diesel.
Yep, I agree. I would have purchased the diesel version if it existed. However, I preferred the AWS over the diesel, so went with the x739. Hope your 739 is still treating you well!
@@GoodWorksTractors The X758 was around when I purchased my X739, but no AWS... So that's why I went with the X739 over the diesel X758... Nothing handles like the X739. It's awesome. I'm sure you don't follow my channel and my story with my X739, but I just recently traded it in and moved into a Kubota BX23S. The Kubota Monster.
Yes, I saw your episode of your BX23s delivery! That was crazy!
The wash out port works if you use it everytime.
Nice video, better tractor, even better lawn! Keep up the good work
Thanks so much!
That is badass! I've got an x354 all wheel steer couldn't afford the 700 series
Thanks man! Yeah, all those X700 are absurdly expensive.
Planning to order a X739 this week!
Does anyone talk about the x700 ultimate? Seems JD wants everyone to forget about that model number in the 700 series line.
Nice tractor
I have a LX172 it's 31 years old and runs great, only bad thing is mower deck and Fiberglas hood.
2 years and 20 hours only? I put that much hours on my mower in a week. Curious what the reliability is like.
But what is the difference between 738 and 739 ?
Hey @goodworkstractors you need to get a Darwin's Grip Pro. 🎉
What kind of grass did you plant? Looks very lush and well fertilized
My question is, do you bag all growing season or start about half way through the growing season?
Good question. I just started bagging a couple weeks ago once I noticed a few early leaves starting to drop. However, I'm getting ready to dethatch and aerate so I figured I'd get a jump start on not building up anymore of a thatch and debris layer.
If you're looking for something used the older cub cadet 2000s series mower's are great
I spy a bow target back there. 1:27 theres some deer!! I want to see your bow an some target shots bud. I was lucky enought to score AWS X749 diesel version, they're such handy little tractors.
When will John Deere build this tractor with a diesel engine -- a 759?
Boy I would love to see you make a video on the correct way to level a deck on a 700 series tractor. Is that something you could do for us?
How much did you get it for?
As a rule of thumb the wash out ports do help as long as you wash after you mow while the grass is soft, it will significantly loosen harder encrusted grass to ease cleaning manually, they do pretty well and keeping the grass from building up and rusting out the deck.
I may have to try it out! However, that means I gotta clean the mower first, ugh!
Are hdap tires the same as turf trax tires? I have a 2016 x738 with the turf trax tires. Looking forward to see how they handle in the snow.
They look very similar. Maybe not identical, but appears they're close enough.
I bought a D130 and it can't even get out of my back yard. After mowing for 30 minutes i guess the fluid heats up and it no longer climbs any hills at all.
Same with e130 wish I bought one is a better transaxle I only hAve 3/4 acre but now I wish I had a 500 series
What many buyers don't know is that the JD D and E series that are sold in the big box stores use a very light duty version of the Tuff Torque transmission. Although the tractors superficially look very much like the X series sold by JD dealers, the bones, engines, and transmissions are much heavier duty in the X tractors. I have a X324 from 2008 and it uses the K58 Tuff Torque transmission and Kawasaki engine. It has never let me down.
So is that gonna be your personal machine
For the time being.
Get a weedwacker too
I personally don’t like the all wheel steering because of the fact that the rear steering mechanism you have a great chance of something going wrong back there in the future then it will cost you probably an arm and leg to repair it that’s why I got a Kabota BX tractor
Why is there a great chance of something going wrong? Did you see Tractor Time With Tim's recent video comparing the 1025r vs BX turning diameter? The 1025r was a solid 2.5' tighter turning radius. Pretty crazy! Thanks for watching!
SuperAgentman007 no no no nothing will go wrong we have one it is way to meaty and rugged back there trust me lol
@@GoodWorksTractors I just watched that video and was blown away! I was actually convinced i wanted a BX until i watched that video. Now i'm on the fence between a 1025R, X739 or the X754.... I really wish they made a 4WS/4WD diesel.. If they did, my choice would be easy.
Absolutely beautiful place you have! You're grass looks healthy, is that st. Augustine? My neighbor has 1 of those, from watching him, I can tell that is an awesome machine.....
Thanks Belinda!
It's actually a Fescue, Perennial Rye, and Bluegrass mix. I'm going to be overseeing more bluegrass this fall to try and deepen the color.
@@GoodWorksTractors I figured with the narrow grass blades mixed in there that was a fescue mix. It looks stunning!
Nice mower but does it work? Never saw it mow anything.
It's actually a toy sized model. Photoshop is amazing ;)
U didn’t show it move
Very observant. 👍
Can you put a loader on it? No. I can.
To bad they discontinued that ability in 2012.
I bought the last new 2012 x748 in 2012.
Got loader, 3pt hitch, box blade, plow and pto.
I saw the new series coming and thought
"Shit, I gotta get a x748 before this garbage comes out."
P.S. you can boost the hydro pressure from the factory set 900-1000 psi to about 1300psi with no harm. The system is made to handle 1500+ psi.
By the time you add a loader and three point, you have spent almost the same as a 1 Series. The down side is that you have a far less capable machine with fewer features as well.
@@GoodWorksTractors
1 series was 1,300 cheaper than the x.
The x748 has a 2 ft turn radius, 1 series is just over 7ft. X748 has no ROPS. 1 series does. 1 series is 8 inches taller at the hood and has higher center of gravity, tips easier. 1 series is my choose for my use. Everyone has to choose which is better.
But, if you do the math, run ALL the numbers, I find, like many others, the 1 series is a gimmick tractor.
After discontinuing the loader option for garden tractors (which was an insurance issue) the 1 series became the smallest Deere you could mount a loader on.
I can mow my ditch without having to back out.
I can mow under my trees with no ROPS
And I boosted my hydraulics to just over 1300.
My neighbor bought a brand new mahindra emax20s hst, after doing the comparisons, he left pissed. Came home with a new max24 4wd hst.😉
The actual turning radius of the 1 Series is closer to 2.5'. Reference czcams.com/video/WiHwIJzm1VQ/video.html
Correct, no ROPS on the X Series unless you're in Europe :). Sure, you can mow under trees with the X Series if you can fold your body like Gumby.
Yep, a little higher center of gravity for sure on the 1 Series. That's a general observation as you go larger with any machine.
I'm not sure how you can call the 1 Series a gimmick tractor. You get more for your money than with a similarly equipped X Series. I call the that better buy.
I sit on X Series for 2-3 times as long as 1 Series tractors. People simply can't justify paying that kind of crazy money for a less capable machine. I don't blame them.
@@GoodWorksTractors
I didn't mean to sound condescending. I got a 1000sqft on 2.5 acres. No garage so small shed
Is what I could build. So i also have a slightly biased perspective I guess as far as housing it.
Sounds like you are having microphone issues. Lots of popping and dropping out. Sounds like possibly a loose connection.
Yeah, there was something going on, but I thought it cleared up later in the video?
It does. Noticed you had the microphone on your collar. Could be over driving it causing distortion and drop out. Might want to look into setting the gain a little lower.
Good idea, thanks
FIRST !
What's the price?
Not for sale
Ya but at what price did you sell it to your neighbor for?
Oh, gotcha. I don't remember exactly, but either 12 or 13 with the plow too.
Baddest? I thought worst?
Lol
Second
I would never buy another John Deere tractor again nothing but plastic not happy at all just like everything else to much plastic
Plastic hoods are better than steel. Doesn't rust, dent or fade as bad
A Home Depot John Deere and one like he has is way different
go to a john deere dealer and buy the best, don't go to Lowes or Home Depot lmao😂
What a awful video. No price info or anything. Just a guy getting off on his lawnmower. Weird!
Yep, I love it! It's a sweet tractor. Thanks for watching Kevin!
