    Rear Remote recommendations- Its time

    I just took possession of my MX6000 yesterday, had to opt for backhoe connection and basic loader hydraulics only. I will be adding 3rd function (Summit) and rear remotes in the future. I like the clean look of the 3 OEM rear, but have some questions. Is the potential for the OEM internal leak...

    Mx6000

    Took delivery of MX6000 about 9:30am, immediately had to go to Billings. Got home, jumped on and moved a couple small mounds of dirt. WOW! This is going to make life so much better.

    I need a good Flail mower. Thoughts???

    I'm also looking for a flail mower for my new MX600, will be delivered this coming week. Would really like the hydraulic offset, but will have to add rear remotes before that option become viable. I know, should have had them added, but mitigating circumstances reduced the budget for the MX, so...

    New lights and fan on top.

    Thanks for these pics. Really helped me see what I can do with LED lighting for my new MX6000 with same canopy.

    Mx6000

    Agreed, but had to go this route due to budget. I know I'll pay more later, maybe, I can do the install myself. Just a lot of mitigating factors right now. I could have added the remotes if I wanted to drop down to a MX5400 or L4802, but I really want the MX6000 for that extra margin. I've gone...

    Mx6000

    Well, this has been a learning experience. Dealer 1 (1 hour drive), whom I have only had contact with the owner's son and the receptionist that answers the phone (could be owner's wife), fell far short of my impression at first contact. Apparently the owner is the only person that can discuss...

    Mx6000

    As Hunter1157 stated, HST so my wife can drive it also. She really enjoys the BX23S, but it's just not enough tractor for 60 acres. I would love to get the cab version of either, but that extra $10k would kill the budget. Sure would be nice on those 100F+ or -30F days, though. Guess I'll just...

    Mx6000

    Good points, same things I went through when I bought the BX23S, comparing JD and Kubota. Similar JD was more $ than the BX23S, but the welds were much less refined. Attitude of the dealer was also MUCH different between JD and Kubota. JD was like I should have felt it an honor just to be able...

    Mx6000

    Wish I was back home near Sula (Victor, Hamilton childhood). We are about 60 miles from Billings, so Kioti and Kubota are 'close'. TYM nearest is Helena, so about 150 miles. Those are things to be considered.

    Mx6000

    I'm looking to upgrade from my 2019 BX23S to a 50-60hp tractor. Currently leaning towards MX 5400 or MX6000. However, I know a guy with a TYM 574C that just raves about it, with over 2,000 hours and never had a problem, other than ones he created. Looking at the prices, the TYM with cab is about...

    Can't decide on a tractor for the life of me.

    It's too bad we're not closer, I would offer you my 2019 BX23S. Has a manual thumb for the backhoe, tine rake for the 3pt, Cyclone Rake for connecting to the mower deck plus 32' of manual 8" hose for vacuuming where the tractor cant get. Also have the underbelly skid plate to protect the fan...
