Pulling the trigger

[desertdog71]

Well, I looked at them and a few other brands today. Nothing really changed my mind about things. I do think that Kubota makes a really nice machine that is very refined, and has some nice features. I don't think it's worth $4K more though. So I'll be ordering the 2510H in the next couple days, with the Loader, mid mower, box blade, cutter and trailer. It was a nice enough package they put together and I was happy with the dealer. Dealt directly with the owner, and he took the time to answer questions, paid attention to my wife and her questions and didn't bad mouth other brands. Showed us the service department, talked about the building he bought next door and expanding. They've been selling Branson for 9 years, and a couple mower brands for 13 years. He was basically a good ole boy cowboy that owns a tractor shop.

I looked at the bigger machines also and I really liked the 20 series but it's way more than I will need after the first year or so. The little 2510 should suit our needs and get a some work done.

Placed the order today. It will be mid February before I pick it up. Takes a couple weeks to get there and then I am working out of the country until Feb 17th. Pics when I pick it up of course.

Only bad thing is that they didn't have one in stock like I wanted, so I have to wait. I have some 50+ degree days ahead of me that I could be working at the land. I meet the survey crew out there tomorrow morning to get the boundaries figured out, and then I can start some planning at least. First thing is get the driveway put in and get a shipping container dropped out there to store stuff while we build.

Dealer says my tractor arrived today and is getting prepped. Too bad I have to go to work for 16 days. I'll pick it up when I get back.

Missed this thread before.

Congrats on the new toy! :thumbsup:

As said before, we like pictures, plus we don't see many 2510 owners around here.

Yeah I will get some pics for sure. Hopefully good weather when I pick it up so I can put it to work right away. See what that Bad Boy cutter can do.

Dealer sent me a couple pics. I'll post more when I pick it up in a couple weeks.
