Differences Between the 2032R and 2038R

Despite seeming so similar on paper, there are a few key differences between the 2032R and 2038R.

Horsepower – The 2038R is the more powerful tractor with 5.5 more gross horsepower and 6.2 more PTO power than the 2032R.

Size – The 2038R is designed with a heavier, more stable frame, coming in at 2910lbs compared to the 2032R’s 2436lb weight.

Which one is right for you?

Both tractors are capable of being your single tractor solution for your large property or small homestead. With attachments that include lawn and turf care as well as material handling attachments like backhoes, there’s little that these 2 Series tractors can’t handle for a homeowner.

If you’re in need of a compact utility tractor with maximum stability for this size category, the 2038R is going to be the best choice for you. The heavier frame and overall weight will help to counterbalance the tractor while lifting and manipulating heavier loads and attachments.
