Well I dont have a JX1100U. But When we tested out tractors at the Local Dealers lot, one of them was a JX1080U. An it was like every other Modern 4 banger Tractor, Covered in plastic, Lite weight, an no where near enought torque. We eventualy went with a JX95 straddle model. Got a better deal on it. So far it gets the job done, were runnin our silo blowwer with it right now. I sure the hell wont trade in my 930, 970, or 1070 on any New "Case" tractor. Although if given a Chance I would like to get one of those Puma's. To take some of the Heavy work away from the 1070. I would love to give my hard earned money over for a New American Tractor, Canadian, or even a Brit tractor. But the Problem is I needed a small 4X4 to handle our round bales in winter, an the Ol 1494 just wasnt built for that kinda of work. 3 Times to rebuild the front axle is 2 times to many. An it seems like the only nations capable of buildin these smaller tractors anymore ,are either Asia, or Eastern Europe(or To damn close to Eastern Europe for comfort.) An if you keep all of your Hay in Round bales, you cant get away fromt he need for a 60 to 90HP 4X4 tractor. So were left with the choice of the Lesser of two evils.
