I'm trying to get some thoughts on a 1998 B7300 listed for sale locally. Very good condition with 500 hours. 60" belly mower. Listed for $5750. Is this price consistent with value? Are the hours considered high?
Also wanted to see if people thought this mower would meet my needs. It just seems a little small to me. Primary function would be mowing a 3 acre yard with only a few scattered trees. Secondary functions would be grading a 50 yard gravel driveway and brush hogging 3 acres of woods. I plan on using a bigger tractor and mower to get the initial brush cut down in the woods and would only use the Kubota to keep the scrub down. Mowing the woods about once a month or so. Will the B7300 handle a 48" brush hog for that kind of work? Also would be using to pull a roller on the yard and a fertilizer spreader, but I know it should do those without any problems.
Will the B7300 fit my needs or will I wish I had something bigger?
