Kubota Advice Needed!

[CompactTractorFan]

The BX2660 and BX25 is really the same tractor except for built in subframe for BH and rear power beyond ports. It really should be a no brainer for getting a BX25 if price is not an problem. I have the BX24 on 2 acres as well for snow clearing, mowing, BH work, rototilling, firewood, etc.
I have a rear blade as well and I personally don't like it with snow clearing since I get too much here. I ended up modifying a truck blade to attach to the FEL arms instead.

The dealer told us that the BX2660 and the BX25 are the same tractor. After looking at the specs the BX2360 looks the same as the BX25.

Yep!!! I'm SO excited!!! (in case you all don't know, I'm 15 years old)

I wish my 16 year old grandson shared your enthusiasm for tractors.

So, can you mow in high range? Yes, we are planning to get the three point hitch. We were also thinking about a rear blade in the future for the snow, but I'm sure the FEL will beat shoveling which we do now.

There are threads on here about mowing in high/low, some do and some don't, no problem either way depending on terrain.

Actually I believe it shares the same engine as the 2360, but otherwise it is pretty much the same as the 2360/2660 except for the seat of course.

Thanks for the advice everyone! I'm heading out now!!!

We just pulled the trigger (if the financing application goes through) on a Kubota BX25 with: loader, backhoe w/12" bucket, 60" mid mount mower, and industrial tires. I'm so excited!!!

You and your family will be impressed with what that little tractor will do. We have them from 23 HP to 85 HP and use our BX2660 a lot.

Yes, it seemed very powerful. It also drove nice and smooth. It steers effortlessly too.

If you are set on the sub compact size, you might want to take a look at the Massey GC series. The BH on the Massey is a bit bigger (a little more reach and the bucket is quite a bit deeper). Both the BX and the GC are sub compacts, but the GC is just a smidgen bigger, at least to my eyes when I was buying. Massey has 0% for at least 60 months or a free mower offer.

The thumb (a dealer add on) can be folded up flat to the dipper when not in use.

Are you the same MF troll? Why don't you give it up? I just don't get it.

Good decision. The FEL is fine with snow, in fact when it is really deep, as we had this year in Maryland, picking up the snow and moving it to the side was the only option unless you had a front mounted snow blower. Blades couldn't handle it.

Now the customizing can begin ; rear wheel spacers , ROP lights,
seat cover , leather steering wheel cover , etc ......
Have fun with the BX . I get a real buzz from my Gainsville Dynamo

Yes, we will use the FEL to start. We might add a blower in the future.

Thanks, we are not planning on any customizations yet. (I would like to add some amber warning lights, but dad doesn't think so)
