2015 Massey GC1710
Going to be trading in my beloved GC2310 on a 2015 GC1710 or GC1720. I can't help but notice, the 2015 seems "beefier" and has much better loader and backhoe pins, loader hydraulic hoses (hidden in frame ), backhoe bucket replaceable teeth and a few other refinements than the 2013/14 model year. Can anyone confirm this ?

Seems like you're trading in, not trading up ... Why the trade in? What are you gaining?

I am not saying it is a major upgrade, I just noticed what has changed seems beefier on the new model with a few nice features. That and the new models have a 5 year warranty which is pretty impressive.

So as it turns out the early 2015's still had the dl100 loader.The late 2015's have the new dl95 loader. Too be more confusing there are 2015's with the new dl95 loader but older backhoe but some with the new dl95 loader loader AND new cb65 backhoe. ��

I do prefer the new loader and backhoe for sure. Hidden hoses,recessed grease zerks,bigger cylinders....

Who is making the CB65 backhoe?

Looks like Alo Quicke who makes the loader as well. The stickers on the hoe and loader says it is a swedish company, however I believe they are made in the states. I must say they look very well made and really like the new hoe design. The welds and finish very clean with no visible weld splatter on the loader or hoe. :)
