    How many of these are out in the wild and some general questions.

    Wow and I thought i got a geat deal on mine for 17,499. :oops: I do think the MSL loader is a nice feature. Does that H24 still come standard with 3rd function and rear remotes? All the Summit standard features is really what won me over at the price. Also - My TX25 is going strong and I...

    How many of these are out in the wild and some general questions.

    The Summit is a rebranded Solis. You can hit up the Solis forum and get an idea of issues - they are pretty reliable for the most part. I wouldn't knowingly sell off a Kubota to replace it with a Summit if I had read otherwise. I know McClure Made Outdoors has a bunch of TX25 videos on Youtube...

    How many of these are out in the wild and some general questions.

    You have around 260 hours on yours. I would love to read more about some of the issues you ran into with it and how Summit support helped to resolve them. Summit was also very responsive with my initial issues. This sub forum seems to have little traffic, which is also why I was asking how many...

    How many of these are out in the wild and some general questions.

    Messicks has a pretty large platform of viewers and while Summit is a rebrand of a reliable platform, it isn't a huge US market. Had Good Works not reviewed his TX25 heavily, I probably wouldn't have considered buying one. Mine has been going good so far. I did manage to get it stuck in the...

    How many of these are out in the wild and some general questions.

    I think the overall package Summit offers really fits well for a lot of 5-15 acre property owners that cant justify 30-40k on a larger tractor all loaded out.

    I have to think things are somewhat ok - our local family farm and home just took delivery of a tx25 with a backhoe. But watching. Stuff like this always has me worried. Heh.

    Bucket capacity

    internal dimensions are roughly - 47" wide, 16" deep, 17" high. While not an exact #, the volume is about the same as the bucket on my Kubota BX if that helps any.

    How many of these are out in the wild and some general questions.

    How many of these are out in the wild? Any idea on overall numbers from Summit's side? I ask because they look to be fairly slow moving locally, so I am curious how many owners are out there and on this forum, especially since the traffic in this specific forum seems to move fairly slow? I was...

    Tractors and wood! Show your pics

    we have PI everywhere - essentially the entire woodline around the house, 1/4 mile driveway, etc. we've tried attacking it with sprays, and mechanical removal, but it always comes back. my wife used to get it really bad, but the longer we've lived here the less it impacts any of my family...

    Ford aluminum body vs Ram steel - can the Ram do as well?

    A lot of the rust issues can be fixed with some well placed weep holes, which always seems to be an engineering afterthought... However, the structural integrity of a rusted through body should be a consideration. I really wish the mfg would consider some of this stuff for the Northern...

    Just took delivery of my TX25. I am also a Kubota BX80 owner so I will be comparing these.

    So I stopped by my local Family Farm & Home again, where I purchased my tractor. I checked all of the other tractors and ALL of them have the dipstick not installed all the way. @Summit Tractors Support you may want to notify your dealer network to double check the dipsticks. They are hard to...

    Just took delivery of my TX25. I am also a Kubota BX80 owner so I will be comparing these.

    Update. I misread one of the dash lights. It is not a diff lock indicator - it was the cruise control indicator. (My BX didn't have cruise, and the dash indicator also has a lock icon) :ROFLMAO: Support indicated that the rear diff lock is only engaged while actually stepping on the lever. It...

    Just took delivery of my TX25. I am also a Kubota BX80 owner so I will be comparing these.

    General feedback as a customer, I can say this: I think this type of product would be better represented at a small to medium size power sports / mower retail sales model. I feel like Big Box might be an issue because it was the Store Manager that sold me my Summit tractor, but he also only knew...

    Just took delivery of my TX25. I am also a Kubota BX80 owner so I will be comparing these.

    Update - it doesn't seem to be hydraulic fluid - It is most likely oil. The dipstick was not installed - so there is oil all over everything. Is there any kind of inspection these go through before the customer gets them? I ask, because after mine sold, I know it sat for a few days with a sold...
