Man, I'm glad you came around. Give some details on the B7510 HSDTR deck lift mechanism. If you followed our old post, someone thought maybe the Turf Special lift mechanism made the 3 point less functional. Not being able to see one first hand I'm a bit reluctant to pull the trigger. I still have the Goss deal waiting but am having trouble with reasonable frieght. I could buy a trailer and take a day off work and go get it for the frieght quotes I've gotten so far. Heck, I can ship a car for less than $1/mile . The best I've seen so far from Goss is $1150! Kinda ruins the deal.

I also want your opinion on the deck on the turf special. Is there a model number on the deck you could pass along. Just trying to get all my facts straight before I buy something I've never seen before. Thanks in advance.

To answer your question, if I can get this B7510HSDTR for basically the same price as the BX2350, I'm going with the B. It comes with the 302 loader vs. the 272 which most dealers put on the B7510. I do like the BX for a mowing machine but can't justify that kind of money for a mower, no matte how nice. I've got a JD 345 and a Grazer 62" zero turn unit, so, even though I want the Kubota for mowing, I want a small, capable tractor to get some work done with. Once I get the Kubota, I will see how I feel about the flexibility and probably sell one or both of the other two. Just more gear to take care of, maintain, fix, etc. If I can get everything in one unit, all the better. Fact is, the wife seems to think the JD is her's so it probably stays no matter what. Will keep you informed.

You just raise the deck all the way up and there are 2 pins on springs that hold the deck up while you use a 3 point. Takes all of 10 seconds per side to do.
