Just got approved by Kubota credit and the dealer (southwest Ohio) told me they're probably not gonna get any BX22's until the end of August??!! /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif Any ideas? BTW, thanks to all the seasoned tractorin' folk for the great advice -- I don't see how anyone can make a reasonable, educated decision buying a tractor without first having explored this site.
If you poke around here in the forums, you'll find that supplies of BX-22 (and some other models) is severely constrained. You'll probably have to wait for delivery...so get your name on one...yesterday.

I just mentioned in another post that my local dealer Johnson Tractor had what I thought to be 6 of them sitting out front of their shop just last night. Even if I miscounted, they had to have had at least 2 or 3. Of course, I don't know if they've been sold or not. I wasn't looking at those, I was looking at L5030.
I placed and order on June 3 for my BX22 and I'm still waiting. Dealer says end of July for delivery. This is my first post in the forum but I have been lurking for 2 months or so. Lots of good info here.
I know the feelin' too....July 1st I was approved for the Kubota financing and still not a real hint as to when the BX2200 will arrive... /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
Now it's not so bad for me as I do have my B2910...but I still want that 2200 for grass cutting and small things... /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif
Yesterday I stopped by my dealer's and he told me he sold two BX22s this week...doesn't have them yet...must be nice being a Kubota dealer this year... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Some other dealers have bx2200s but don't want to part with them...
Mabye your dealer can get a bx22 from someone else if he tries and you push him a little...
Just got my BX22 about 2 weeks ago. My dealer & Kubota regional guy found one close by. (Still waiting for my 60" MMM, though. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif)
IMHO, be patient, it's an amazing machine, worth the wait! Dealer told me that Kubota really underestimated demand for BX's this year (soft economy, etc.) They also supposedly have a ship in Long Beach, CA, waiting to be unloaded, delayed because of the dock worker's strike (how long ago was that! /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif)
JPR,
There's a brand spanking new BX22 siitting in front of Ritenour Equipment center (724 482 2131 ) . It's in Butler Pa . I was De -Crudding my truck at the car wash next door about 3 hrs ago and went through their lot next door .
Kinda wished I wouldn't have , as next to it was an L3130, B2910 and a B7800 /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif That's a lot of temptation for a guy whoes still doing without !!!!
All the best , John
