talking to a new aquaintece tonight and he asked me about buying a tractor. with his needs and usage we kind of narrowed it down to something like a B2910, with fel, and a 6ft brush hog(not name brand specific) with a rake to keep his horse ring smooth. what do u guys feel he can get something like that for? now mind u he is just starting to look, and i told him to check them all out , kubota, JD, ford, kioti but generlaly what would that rig cost? btw this is in western new york
A 6-foot FINISH mower will work just fine on the B2910; however, I would recommend a larger, heavier tractor if you want to use a 6 foot rotary mower. I am very pleased with my B2910 where finish mowing (with a 6-foot finish mower) is probably 80% of the assigned tasks.
If using a rotary mower is going to be the primary task, then I'd probably prefer the heavier Grand L 3130 with 2 more hp. If I remember correctly, the price difference between the Grand L 3130 and the B2910 is $500 or less (base tractor prices). I don't know what the price differences are with FEL installed.
