Except the list price on the snowblower, K connect, and 4 point hitch for the front is $3500 on top of what you just listed, minus the blox blade and quick hitch.
He's talking a front blower, not a rear.

Dont go dumpster deere
They dont even make thier engines. Not to mention they dont have a quick connect skid steer attachment, they have a smaller front axle, the back on dumpster deeres is aluminum, the hood is plastic, the gas gauge is one of those old boat things that sticks in the gas tank, bx all the wayEspecially stay away from gators.
Makasoul, I'd like to hear your dissertation on...oh, marriage, or welders, or HST's. I bet that would be fun to read! Everyone loves a opinionated review.
I honestly don't understand all of your posts, when compared to this one. Here you say BX all the way, but in the other 20 posts of yours, you are busting the BX, 6 ways from Sunday....Dont go dumpster deere

I've been driving myself crazy over the past 2 weeks trying to decide between JD and Kubota. Specifically looking at 1025r and bx23s. Here is what I pulled in comparison between the two. Still not sure what to do. Getting pricing at about the same with JD always being cheaper. If you are financing, every dealer for Kubota has told me I have to get their insurance and that raises the price by about $1600 to $1700.
I like the JD because it seems you get more for your money with the little helpful things like the stabilizer upright brackets, included bucket level, 3pt hitch, etc. But having smoother hydraulics is important and kinda what you are buying the machine for and having smoother hydraulics and better disconnects almost makes me want to swing back to Kubota.
Anyway, sorry for hijacking thread. My purpose was to tell you about the JD prices have been cheaper for my.
