    My new b2601

    Here she is under construction. Neil Messick sent me this yesterday. Just a few more days. My BX2360 gets picked up tomorrow. Sad to see her go but super psyched at the new possibilities. [/IMG]

    Any Grapple lovers?

    I think you're right. They're both good products but it seems the EA unit will give me more of what I need. In addition to picking up brush and debris I need to get at roots and rhizomes and that wicked grapple looks like the ticket. Drawing from the experience on this board is amazingly...

    Thanks for your encouragement but shouldn't you be called FSU Kubota Man. :)

    Any Grapple lovers?

    Thanks Kenny, One of the advantages of going with the Land Pride unit is that they can roll the cost into the 0% 60 month financing deal. It's also no heavier than the EA 50" unit and the brush I'll be moving will be at least 62" wide. I also like the double hydraulic cylinders vs the one...

    Any Grapple lovers?

    I need to decide to go with the EA 50" Root grapple http://www.everythingattachments.com/Compact-Tractor-Root-Grapple-p/eta-cut-sl-rg-50.htm OR the Land Pride 62" unit http://www.landpride.com/ari/attach/lp/public/lit/lit_sgc06.pdf for my B2601, Decisions, Decisions, Any advice would be much...

    How many B2601s are out there?

    You'll notice I wrote "with brake". Not sure what the turning radius is without brake (comparable to the BX).

    How many B2601s are out there?

    You are one funny dude. I sold it on Craigslist in 48 hrs and had 4 or 5 interested parties. I sold a B7200 to get into my BX2360 for the FEL and MMM and really loved the BX. I just need somthing a little more versatile that will still mow my acreage in 2 hrs. I hope I've made a good...

    Mower is definitely a different animal. Have no idea re: the front snowblower.

    How many B2601s are out there?

    I want to give a big shout out to Neil Messick re: my tractor order. I became aware that something wasn't right about the pricing of different options. I spoke to Neil and he immediately adjusted the price of the package to be super competitive and keep me a satisfied customer. I'm also a...

    How many B2601s are out there?

    I was also worried about how agile it would be for mowing and I mow over 3 acres weekly, so it's an important role. My BX2360 is great for mowing. It has a turning radius of 7.5 feet and the B2601 comes in at 6.9 feet with brake. I definitely felt for my property the B2650 was too large for...

    How many B2601s are out there?

    jj, great to hear that you like your machine. I have no pressing need for a BH but it's nice to know I could add one later. I'm finalizing my set to be: 60" MMM Turf tires, loaded 60" quick attach bucket with 2 welded 1/2 inch grab hooks and 1 welded D ring centered inside bucket and...

    How many B2601s are out there?

    I thought I was going Green when I discovered the 2025R I was interested in had two fatal flaws. #1 I couldn't get it the way I wanted it until end of June and #2 the RIO switch seems like it would be a total PITA, especially for mowing. So I'm back looking for a B2601. I know lots of you...

    Thinking of buying a "NEW" B2620 (used for one winter by the Naval Academy)

    Re: Thinking of buying a "NEW" B2620 (used for one winter by the Naval Academy) Wow, funny how fast things can change. Upon reflection, inspection and digestion I reconsidered the B2620 and started looking closely at the B2601. I felt I was getting real close to pulling the trigger on the...

    Re: Thinking of buying a "NEW" B2620 (used for one winter by the Naval Academy) Thanks Kenny. They're welding on two grab hooks or i'd be contacting you. Your hooks were incredibly useful and well made. Any grapple recommendations?

    Thinking of buying a "NEW" B2620 (used for one winter by the Naval Academy)

    Re: Thinking of buying a "NEW" B2620 (used for one winter by the Naval Academy) Just sold my BX2360. So, I am now the proud owner of a "NEW" B2620. I have to say, I think the B2620 is a sweet spot for me, almost as nimble as the Bx series with a little more strength for FEL and 3ph work. I...

    Thinking of buying a "NEW" B2620 (used for one winter by the Naval Academy)

    Re: Thinking of buying a "NEW" B2620 (used for one winter by the Naval Academy) That's about $15050. I'd say you got a very good deal.

    Re: Thinking of buying a "NEW" B2620 (used for one winter by the Naval Academy) It is being offered by the dealer. Comes with 0% financing for 60 mos. as new. They had it out on a short term lease. It was never sold.
