Comparison Newbee--Should I go for the B2620

[KU Gator]

Nice tractor. I'm sure you will enjoy getting it dirty. I did notice it does not have a grill guard on it. It should come standard with the B2920 with the loader both according to the Kubota website and my experience. Worth checking on if they didn't give you one.
Enjoy your ride.

Sure looks nice! Your new one makes me want to go wash mine. Be sure to let us know how you like it for mowing!

I will definitely ask about the grill guard. Thanks again for all the advice.

Hi All,
I bought a B2620 w/FEL and 60"mmm a few weeks ago and I am loving life. We own 11 acres of woods and open fields. I already have laid out 40 yards of topsoil, a 185' driveway(7 tri-axles of stone), built a stone wall, moved the quail coop, moved 4 cords of firewood, and cut the lawn twice. I have 43 hours on it already. I should have bought this machine 10 years ago. I am glad I went with the 2620 but would have rather had the B2920. Around here the B2920 was 900 more. I wish I could have gotten the deal you got on the 2920 for just $200 more....way to go!
Oh yeh....definitely get a grill guard....I would have smashed my grill and hood twice already had I not had one although more experience has taught me how not to have that happen again.

get the rear wheel spacers...makes it much more stable!

I was told the rear wheel space kit from kubota doesn't fit on the B2[6/9]20. Can you tell me which rear wheel spacers you're refering to? Thanks.

After seeing donn12's picture I stopped by a Kubota dealer when I was on a road trip and asked about them. He looked it up and initially had the same answer, but then looked a little farther and found there was a set listed for them. I believe it moved the wheels out about 1.5" on each side.

thanks for the grill guard advice

dealer is getting me one free of charge

Glad to help. Mine saved me a few times when I was creating a big brush pile and using the FEL to push trees and brush up on top. It is standard on the B's with a FEL, optional on the BX. If nothing else, it looks cool.
