Brought home a new toy, err tool today, a Kubota F2680E with 72" rear discharge deck. It had 187 hours on it and was stored indoors. Everything looked great on her, so home with me she came for $10,300. Hopefully this will cut my current 5 hour mowing time down a bit.

:thumbsup::drink: Congratulations!!
My first F was a F2680e 60" RD deck that I bought about 5 years ago to mow my mostly flat rental property. Liked it so much that I bought another F3080 72" RD deck for home hillside property. After 4 years I sold/traded the F2680e to Barlows and bought another F3080 72" side discharge deck. A year later I sold the first F3080 and the buyer preferred the 60" vs 72" deck and Barlows had the F2680e back with an extra set of AG tires on it plus the regular tires. Barlows agreed to trade decks and delivered the F3080 I sold to the man in NC (their deal). I tried A Z and then bought my original F2680e that had an extra 20 hours for the $10000 that Barlows had given me for it the year before. It now has about 140 hours, 72" side discharge deck with less than 50 hourson it and an extra set of tires. I'd like to get rid of the ag/bar tires and put my original turf tires back on it but no real incentive to do it. Maybe a buyer for the ag/bar tires will show up with some money/trade to make it worthwhile.
Again, welcome to the fold and us F owners usually congregate over here. http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/kubota-lawn-garden/

Thanks guys, I'm really liking this mower! The cut is phenomenal and maneuverability is like nothing I've experienced before. It's a completely different animal! I spent quite a bit of time mowing today and had a blast.

It's official, I don't think I could go back to mowing the grass solely with a conventional riding lawnmower. The F series is awesome!
