What have you done to your Branson today?

No reason to feed the trolls Pedro.

It just feeds their inner child.

Good point.

Mama?

Bransons just do the same job, for $10k to $20k less. And, I have all of the fancy options like auto throttle, cruise, telescoping 3pt, and stout lift capacities. Also, much prefer their regen system.

Was quoted T494HST with loader for $28,900, Kubota MX5400 gear w/o loader for $32,500, and L4701 w/o loader for $28,200. Or a used 2015 MX5200 shuttle without a loader with 220 hours for $20,000.

I have read a few posts asking if regens should be frequent on the MX5200. With it being a 2015 model, should I be concerned?

If you need a loader, get one with the tractor (whatever one you purchase). Don't buy the MX without one now, you'll only be sorry later.

My 2 cents.

Oops, reading is hard.

I only need it to bushhog with at least a 6' cutter if not an 8'. I wouldn't need a loader necessarily unless I sold or traded my L2501 to offset this purchase.

There's one TYM dealer with a 4.8 rating about an hour away. Four Kubota dealers with ratings 4.2-4.6 in the same travel range.

I still would get a loader. You will be surprised how often a second loader comes in handy. I have the forks on one and the grapple on the other 90% of the time.

Thank you. I hope you get your tractor repaired with full warranty coverage and that your son and daughter in law will be safe.

My fire fighting/irrigation system.

Also this happened on one of the tires of the backhoe.

A good heavy boot will fix that right up.
