I looked at the 26 series and liked it, i went with the 51 series because the operator station is larger and fit me better, but the 26 series was close in my book.I scanned the posts here but still not sure if you have defined the goals of $, weight, and HP.
I am sitting at 6000 lbs with loader, backhoe, and filled tires and 37 HP.
I found it used last year for under 30k with 80 hours of use as a mower.
FB has a 2638 group and seems like almost everyone is happy with it.
A recent poll showed 90% would buy again if I remember correctly.
IF that is in your range, then it might be worth a look to investigate more there.
