David,
The only 2010 I'm familiar with is of the 1960's era.  Is that the same
model you say you own?  If so I have a similar situation as to what you are
describing.

I have a 1967 2020 gas tractor with a loader and also a 2012 X720 with a 62
inch deck.  My dealer hinted I should trade for the 1023E, so I can have a
loader and 4WD.  I keep said I have a real tractor with a real loader.  My
X720 has rear bar tires and rear wheel weights.  I am in tremendous hills
and drive the X720 on terrain not recommended by the company.  With the 62"
deck I have a real low center of gravity.  I put on about 80 hours a year on
the X720.

I do remove my deck a few times a year.  It isn't the handiest but I can do
it.  Feel free to contact me direct at cchopper at centuryte.net

I'm thinking very seriously about adding a sub-compact tractor to my 
"fleet".  The particular one is the JD 1023E.
The intended uses are mowing (so the mid-mount mower) and light loader 
work (mostly moving mulch for the garden) and maybe as a pack mule.  I 
do have larger tractors (one with a loader - a JD2010D).  The 
sub-compact frame and shorter turning radius would be a great help.

My question: does anyone have any experience with this particular model?
