    New B2601

    What's the difference between the 2601 and the 2650? I didn't really even look at other models because I decided if I was going to upgrade to a bigger tractor I was going to have a cab.

    New B2601

    They're just now delivering it? What took so long?? LOL I closed the deal on my 2650 on the phone last Friday and they delivered it on Monday morning bright and early....and it came from Illinois too. :-) The seat on my 2650 is pretty nice...even better than I thought it would be. Not...

    New B2650 W/Cab delivered today

    Funny!! It does look like that but it was just the kind gentleman who delivered my tractor trying to get out of the picture. You're only about 2 hours away from me. You're welcome to come check it out anytime.

    New B2650 W/Cab delivered today

    In the cab with the doors closed it's surprisingly quiet even mowing at wide open throttle. The hydro whine is really loud though. I really noticed it moving the tractor around at low speed with the doors open. Enough so that I considered calling the dealer and asking if it was low on fluid or...

    B2650 too big for 3 acres?

    I can do that. I want to get some side by side shots of it next to the JD2305. I've always had...and still do have...the question of how they compare in size side by side. I've seen them both obviously but not at the same time. 40 tractors?? Wow!! Yea one thing always leads to another in...

    B2650 too big for 3 acres?

    Thanks for all the input guys....I think.....since nobody talked me out of it... I bought it today and they're delivering it on Monday. 2650 with cab, Turf tires, 72"mmm, radio and loader with 60" quick attach bucket. My yard needs mowed but I think I'll wait til Monday now!! :):)

    B2650 too big for 3 acres?

    That's great feedback. Thanks!! My mowing is mostly flat....well it slopes downhill but not horrible and I only have a few trees where I might have to do some trimming for the cab but nothing too bad there either. I think with the turfs I'd be fine as I don't have any real low spots that get...

    B2650 too big for 3 acres?

    I could probably find space for it but it would be really tight. I'm already moving stuff around all the time to get things in and out of the garage or the out building. My out building has a 10' overhead door so the cab won't be a problem getting it in there. I think I'd have to take the...

    B2650 too big for 3 acres?

    Wow!! Lots of great input here....a lot more responses than the other forum I posted my questions on. Thank you!! Ok so a blower might be an option...but....then I'd REALLY want that cab for blowing snow out in the wind on top of the hill. See....maybe I do NEED a cab. Actually if I buy...

    B2650 too big for 3 acres?

    I do want to mow faster but I said saving time wasn't worth it to me to have two machines. If buying two machines was the only way I could save time I'd consider it but buying a bigger tractor with a wider deck will also speed it up. I don't have a ton of stuff to mow around. I use the 2305...

    B2650 too big for 3 acres?

    How does the BX2370 compare in size to the B2650? I thought John Deere's numbering system was jacked up until I started looking at the Kubotas....they make no sense to me at all but I really haven't studied them much. I've just been focusing on the B2650 because it's the smallest unit I can...

    B2650 too big for 3 acres?

    Besides my big driveway I have two other parking areas I plow and in front of my outbuilding and it's all gravel. If it was paved a blower would be great but I can't chance throwing rocks everywhere so that's why I ruled out a blower. We don't get huge snow but enough to cause some...

    B2650 too big for 3 acres?

    I posted this on another forum and then I found this one so I thought I'd post it here as well. The other forum isn't brand specific so the orange experts are hopefully all hanging out over here. I mow three acres and have about 400 feet of gravel driveway that I plow in the winter so that...
