BX24 buying advice

[JOHNTHOMAS]

You may also want to ask Barlow's for a price on a similar equipped GC2410 as they are also a Massey Ferguson dealer.

Haven't been in probably over a year. Kubota new no MF.

The Cub Cadet Sc2450 is another subcompact TLB, similar to the BX25 and the M-F GC series. New Holland lists a Boomer 1025 on the web site, but I have never seen one in person. The three NH dealers within a few hour drive of me all refused to quote a 1025, so I gave up on NH.

In the scut catagory, M-F, JD (models currently in transition), Kubota are the most common. Cub and NH also have offerings. The Cub SC2450 I looked at seemed like a nice machine as well. All these machines have their pros and cons. Take your time, go through all the specs, then go and try them out. Differences and your preferences will become apparent fairly quick.

Dang. That is sad news.

I'll check that out, however, if they dont have real good financing they would not be an option. That narrows the playing field to pretty much to Orange (0%/60) and Red (0%/72). Green is only 0%/48, as I'm sure you know - making the payment outside my range ( NTM 'production problems' with the 2305's replacement AND the 20% to 30% 'JD Tax' that I tend to be seeing when I do comparison shopping.) Thanks for all the help!

I just checked - Club Cadet has 0%/48M like JD's.

Also, just found out...Mahindra is also doing 0%/60. Some seem to swear by this brand and their specs look pretty sweet. Since I could end up selling it later, I'm prolly staying away from these less established brands for resale considerations - also, parts could be a problem I would imagine.

I'm not sure what all your needs for a tractor are, but, from reading here, I think you should look at a B2320 package. They have some of these at nice prices.
