Kubota B7610 versus B7800

   / Kubota B7610 versus B7800 #11  
Free advice normally costs the one that takes it /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif, but here's mine. I had a b7500, fel & bh with turf tires. I now have the b7800, fel & bh with R4s. I wouldn't throw rocks at the b7500, but there is a real difference in what the extra weight and power will do. I know the B7500 is a little smaller horse power than the B7610 but same frame. In my opinion, the 78 is well worth the difference, even if you have to streach the payments. I only had 54 hours on the 75 and about 12 on the 78. I would also suggest anyone getting a fel get a toothbar.

I'd look for one of these guys trading off their low hour B7500 and go for a good deal. I have 30 acres and use the B7500 for the jobs you mentioned, except my driveway is longer. I have no complaints.

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( The headlights can easily be fixed. For $2.99 a piece I went and got Blazer 50watt incandesent bulbs for the front of my tractor. They don't melt the lens on the tractor and put off all kinds of light.

If the tractor you have is more than enough to do the chores you have for it what's the sense in going bigger?
Looks more like and emotional ego trip than a practical need to me.

I have a B7800 and am continually amazed at what the thing can handle in terms of implements, because of the 30Hp motor. If you have over 5 acres get the B7800. You can upgrade to larger implements which will save you time.

I recently purchased the B7610, but my situation is different from yours. I still have my old tractor that's twice the HP and wt. After 14 yrs I'm sure you know what you need/want to accomplish, and have a pretty good idea that both these tractors are capable. Now comes the hard part, which one do you really want and how to convince Mrs. DHBecker.
