I’m in the market for a tractor and have decided on a Kubota BX22 or a B7500 with a MMM. The primary reason for the tractor is mowing 41/2 acres and homeowner landscaping projects. I am leaning more toward the BX22, however, I would appreciate any input on which tractor to purchase and also any local dealer recommendations

There have been several recent threads on this very topic, or at least the B700 vs the BX-2200, with some pretty detailed comparisons.

Will you be buying a BH with the B7500?

I went through the same thoughts last year, and will say without a doubt, go with the B7500. I have just under two acres, and love my B7500. I have returned to the dealer since I bought mine and sat on the BX... and am really glad I spent the few bucks more. Understand that I came from a garden tractor that was ancient, and even though the garden tractor had a small frame in comparison to the B7500, the B7500 turns a super small turning radius, the larger tires give a better ride than the BX, the 3pt capacity is greater on the B, and I have heard of problems with some 3pt attachments on the BX due to height restrictions. The BX may give a better cut, I have heard, but I certainly cannot complain about the 60"mmm on the B. I think that with your acreage, you can'y go wrong a little larger in frame size. I will say that even though I only have 2 acres, i do wish I would have had the extra $$ to buy the 2410. Well, maybe it's time to upgrade. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif It's almost certain that you will always find the need and desire for a larger unit AFTER you have purchased the smaller one. Check out the past posts. I know I posted for a lot of help last summer... BX22 or B7500.

Ordered a b7500 with a bradco backhoe, 60" MMM, and a 303 FEL. I am building a house and have a little over 3 acres to mow. Will I be happy or sad? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I use my 7500 for 12 acres including: 1 acre pond, 3 acres of finish mowing, 400' gravel drive (snow removal) and 3 acres of brush hogging. All with no problems or complaints.
The answer to your question - Happy of course!

I love my B7500 and I live in Ashland. I got mine from Davis Equipment and they were great folks. I have 200 hours on my Bota now, most of it grass cuttin' but use it to bush hog, till and anything else I can find.

CDay- I bought my B7500 from Beard's in Crestwood last summer. I would check them out and ask for Terry the sales manager there. He was really good to work with and gave me what I thought was a very fair price. I use mine on 6 acres and she works just great.
