Newbie Has Questions

[FSE]

OK guys. I called another dealer today and he has a new uncrated BX2660 and a 60 MMM in stock and will have the FEL Thursday. I talked him down and it is going to be the same as the other dealer was offering. If I do not chicken out tonight I am going to give him the ok to put it together tomorrow morning. I hate to say it but I am feeling a little nervous right now and a little excited also. He says he can have it here by Friday. If I decide to get it I will let you know and maybe post some pictures.

I had the same conversation with my dealer who said they could have the tractor within a couple days. I'm ordered it. After several months of watching, reading and listening (at times not well) it is a relief to have made the choice.
Pretty exciting really.

FSE, AHNC,

Congrats on the decision. Its a tough decision with so many choices. All of the BX's are good machines and have their respective advantages. The BX2660 with all of the extra deluxe features and additional power is a good choice especially if you are able to take advantage of the additional PTO power. You will not be wondering later if you should of gotten anything more, as you got it all. They sure are pretty when new- Looking forward to your pictures.

Took the plunge today. Call and ordered the BX2660, 60 MMM and FEL. Checked and getting a blade from Tractor Supply. I talked the dealer into doing my 50 hours maintenance for me. I just threw it out there and he went for it. Anyway it will be here Friday. Still nervous but can not wait till it gets here. Thanks all for your help in making the decision and thanks TripleR for talking me into the BX2660. I wont have to wonder if I needed the extra power now. Will try to get pictures when it gets here.

Congratulations; really think you're going to like it. I sure wish I had thought of the 50 hour service. Be sure to check your manual under the maintenance section in regards to the replacement of HST fluid. Many manuals showed no replacement of fluid, but it needs to be replaced. There is an old thread on it.

LOOK! Santa came last night! Well it finally got here but the dealer called this morning and said that Kubota decided to wait to ship my FEL till next week with a shipment of tractors and failed to let anyone know. He said he would bring the tractor as is on a Demo contract and pick it up next Wednesday and put the FEL and front grill guard on. We could do all the paper work then. They also forgot to bring the center top link. He was apologetic and is doing all the hauling free of charge. It is about 100 miles round trip. Can not really blame him for what Kubota did so all is well. Gives me a chance to try it out and let them know it there are any problems and adjustments that need doing. Anyway I have it in the garage reading and trying all the whistles and bells and plan to take it out tomorrow and cut some grass with it. I added a small cross draw bar to pull my trailer with. By the way TripleR, Love the seat. Thanks a million.

Congratulations on your new tractor; sounds like you have a pretty good dealer. I don't blame you for not waiting on the FEL.

If you have concerns, or are unfamiliar with FEL removal/installation, here is a good link. It works the same as on the 2660.

I just got mt Bro Tek stuff yesterday; can't wait to put them on. I wish someone made tail light protectors, broke another one up in my woods yesterday; my fault.

Get out and enjoy your new machine.
