New L2501

[DrHolliday]

Just wanted to say hi to everyone. I've read a lot of reviews before purchasing and wound up with a new L2501HST with FEL, ssqa bucket and 6' finishing mower.g or the package for 21,900 with 0***8453; for 84 months. I thought long and hard about the 3301 and the 3901 but just couldn't do the emissions on them. Wanted a simple tractor.

I'll be using it to keep about 4 acres mowed, and for maintaining about 27 acres of forest. So far I'm happy with the tractor. Now I can't wait for it to dry up some so I can take it back in the woods.

Those are nice tractors. It should give you many years of good service. I looked hard at the L25 but ended buying an L39.

Welcome! I have had my 2501 for a year and a half and really like it. You'll be pleased with the way it performs.

Welcome aboard! We replaced our old 1953 ford jubilee with a brand new l2501 in December, we love the new machine, cant even compare the two! We are very happy with ours, and I am sure you will be also, great tractor!

Hi. I got an L2501 package deal in December. FEL, box blade and 5' rotary cutter. Fun time figuring stuff out without any manuals.

I took it around one of my ponds and went to go down a trail to my gas well, half way through the trail it was just about buried andstopped moving. Took some playing to get it out. My wife gave me some looks when I came back to the house too, lol.

I all happened with .6 hours on it. It was delivered with .5 on it. Didn't take long to get it dirty!

I got a L2501/HST/FEL with 5ft brushhog and 5ft box blade about 2weeks ago. Been so wet only pushed around some brush. I got about 4-5acres cleared and 15acres of woods to maintain. Now it just needs to dry out some. So I can REALLY start playing...eerrrr working(as the wife rolls her eyes).

I wanted to get the R1's but was talked into the R4's. Thinking about going back and having them swap them out and add in another implement or something to make up the value.

Was offered too, at an additional price but was assured the R4's were almost as good as AG's for mud traction.... What a crock. See my ad in classified section, the one where I'm trying to trade my tires for AG's. Hope they take care of you as u bought yours new, mine was used so I got what came with it.

Hi all . Just took delivery of mine two days ago. Unfortunately I had to go back to work that night and will not have time to play until Tuesday First time tractor owner and am super excited.

Just wondering about something. I got my L2501 package on Dec. 30 (that is right tax man) Was delivered in a rush by dealer and only had one ignition key. Was told he would mail the manuals and other key. So far nothing. Has anybody else one gotten one key and no operating manual ? I downloaded the cutter and scrapper manual form the 'net but had to spend the 25 for the operating manual from California.

 

[Brazos]

You should get an Operating Manual and 2 keys. Wear them out until you get it. For what it is worth you can download the manual off the Kabota website (or if you PM me with you email address I can email it to you) for about $15. You can buy a set of 2 keys for about $10. So it's not the end of the world. Not right though.

 

[Forvols]

Yes I got all manuals and 2KEYS with my L2501/fel/brush hog/boxblade...hit the dealer up.

 

[DrHolliday]

I got 2 keys and the manuals with mine as well.

My finishing mower just came yesterday so I tested real quick before putting it all in the shop. The more I use this 2501 the more I like it. I did talk to the dealer about tires and they are willing to swap to the r1's, but the more I use the r4's the more I think I might keep them. The less psi is helpful aroundthe house where it will be used most of the time.
