kubota/b2910
hi guys i am looking at adding a new peice of snow removal equipment to my growing, but small, fleet.

I am looking at 2 different pieces right now. both kubota. one being the l48 tlb. i would be mounting an 8 foot blade on it/box. it wieghs about 7500lbs and is 20ft long.

the other is the kubota r520 wich is a 50hp wheel loader with same 8ft blade/box. it is about 9k pounds and is 15ft. long.

they have simler bucket highs for stacking snow, but the r520 lifts more which would be nice for loading pallets and the sort. there is a backhoe attachment for the r520.

oh and both would have cabs with heat. the r520 would be a kubota and the l48 would be a curtis or the like.

thank you for the help.

Both would be a nice addition to anyone's fleet. I would go with the wheel loader, drop the BH for winter work, in the off season it will earn its keep.
