we pulled this rock out of our back yard and moved to the front for landscaping... it would not fit in the bucket but pushed it about 100' with the FEL and managed to get it just where we wanted it between the FEL and BH.

we were successful and placed it right where wanted it... here is a picture after cleaning the rock up

Nice! Its good to see some of the tasks that sub and compact tractors can handle.

Hmmmmm.......R4's in that mud did pretty darn well, seems like I've heard some arguments to the contrary:D

That is a nice rock. It should split into four or five nice slabs!:D

Cool video's. I think that's the first time I've actually seen the BX backhoe in action. Is that white landscape fabric running down a drain line? At first I thought it was snow. Thanks for sharing..

My first thought as well. My thought was, "Isn't that where the operator sits?"

Language can be a tricky thing.

yes, it's landscape fabric. I used the tractor to put in a +100' french drain between mine and my neighbors house. we both have a few issues with standing water in the back and using the drain to take it away. also ran tight lines for the gutters and sump pump discharge.

Egon is kind of short on rocks, so he has to split his to get enough for his needs. :D

I have been constantly surprised at how much I have been able to do with both the BX that I had, and the B that I have now. They are tough little beasts for sure! That is one big rock you have there!

Those videos are just too cool! I'm gonna love my new BX25.

I'm hoping it gets here next week. The BX25 is either a popular model in my area or an unpopular model, I don't know which. Neither dealer closest to me has one in stock. The dealer with the best quote has calls out locally to find one. I made a few calls and found two dealers with them in stock, but their quotes (and their taxes - 7% vs. 3%) are more than my closest dealer.

The first picture looks like something that should be on a Kubota sales brochure showing the BX25's capability and strength. Anway, that rock looks like it was a lot of fun to move. Happy seat time!
