I own both of these tractors. They are both good machines. If I could keep only one, it would be the Deere. Mainly because the Deere has a true indepentant live pto. The Allis doesn't. Also, because the Deere is a "flat deck" tractor and much more comfortable and easier to operate all day long. I don't like straddling the transmission housing on the Allis. The Deere power steering is much better also. As is the hydraulic system. My Allis has 3400 hrs., the Deere about 7000. The Allis you are looking at has 2 remotes. That's a plus. You can add the second one on the Deere for about $450 in used parts. The Deere 3 point will handle more weight than the Allis with out lifting the front end off the ground. The D17 starts better in cold weather that the 2510 does. The Deere will probably hold it's resale better, and be a little easier to sell, if the time comes. The Allis is shorter in height and more compact if storage, or working around trees, is an issue. The Allis is a very good tractor. I'm happy with both of them.
