I work for one of the JCB competitors so I don't think it could be a good idea to give you advices!

Here in the US there are only a few competitors to the 520. Not as many choices as the rest of the world. Right now 520s can be had at a bargin. Probably 60% (or more) of the 520s our dealership sells goes to ag.

I'll keep my opinions to myself since I'm biased!
