Bought a used 2009 BX 2660 several Months ago with 60" MMM. Just under 300 hrs. Has valves and controls for FEL. While at the dealer today pricing a FEL install the dealer said he had a brand new Bx25d w FEL and BH that he would trade for a net of $9k. While most of use is mowing, tilling, and grading the idea of also having a BH intrigued me. From reading other forum posts it seems that a popular opinion is that unless you regularly use the BH it is typically cheaper to rent one than have the installed. While i agree somewhat it seems my BH needs are usually short term, needed pretty quickly and don't justify the rental.
So, at the risk of re-starting the debate I wanted to get others opinions on the prospect of going from the BX2660 with MMM to the brand new BX25d with FEL and BH, no mower, for the $9k difference in price.
