Here are the pics! I ordered it with the rear remote, it came with the male ends and caps to give to the hydraulic shop when I get hoses made.The cutter is a Landpride 48" Rotary. I was hoping to try it out today, but too much rain.

Verrrry Nice, valleydweller. Lots of productive hours ahead on that baby.

I see your rear remote setup is the same as mine. Be a little careful mowing with obstacles on your right side. I did serious damage to a couple of trees and put a scar on the boat before I learned. Anything that 'leans' toward you is in danger of getting clipped...and with the power that thing has, you may never know it.

Very nice tractor and attachments. You should get many years of good use out of it. Thanks for sharing the photos. There's lots of muscle under that orange paint.
Congratulations,
Pat

One of the great assets of that machine is that you can get it into really tight work areas.

Nice equipment Valley.

I love my 7500! Enjoy it and get that loader scratched up soon - looks too orange!

Valleydweller1..... That's a great looking set up you have there, and they are bullet proof too! I doubt there is a better all around choice in a tractor that size. It does appear that your tractor was delivered with the "old" seat, and you should call your dealer to see if a "new" one is available. If he doesn't have one at a decent price, you might want to contact Neil at Messicks ( see his current thread about having 11 more seats). The new seat is definitely worth the few bucks it might cost. It is much more comfortable, and makes the operator area on your tractor feel more roomy.

I finally got an offer on my BX2230, 2005 model with 155.6 hours, FEL, 42" rear brush hog. Asking price is $9,300, offer is $8,500 plus 4 cords worth of alder logs. I'll deliver the tractor and pick up the wood at the same time. The guy is clearing property to build a house and has lots of logs. They are roughly 12' long, the wife and I could probably process them into firewood-sized chunks in a full day. The price of Alder firewood is around $180/cord delivered in my area.

Anyone want to talk me out of this deal?
