That's true , but can't compare apples to oranges . For the size they are awesome . I need the small size to get through the woods . Also needed a machine with a belly mower , and snow blower. It does all the things I mentioned earlier with great ease. If I need bigger I have access to any piece of large equipment I need just down the road from me. Its a SUB compact tractor. But like all Kubota equipment , does more than you would think .Not to throw cold water on the BX, but before you jump consider the limitations.
I have a BX as well as other larger Blue tractors. On loading stuff, etc. the smaller tractor will do OK for loading onto a pick-up at the rear end. It will not reach high enough to load onto even small dump trucks. The main fault I have is the crude control of the three point. It works, but not nearly as neat as for larger tractors with position control, instead has on-off, up-down control.
