Pulled the trigger today on a new B2650. R-4 tires with 21 gallons of Rim Guard in each side. Loader with SSQA and third function hydraulic kit. Land Pride SGC-0660 grapple and GS-1560 grading scraper. Also had a third cutting edge put on the rear of the scraper so I can cut through stuff in reverse... QH-10 quick hitch is also coming with.

I’ve got free run of some other implements, such as tillers, rotary mowers, post hole diggers, and forks, so I’m pretty set now. I am waiting for a fella to get back to me about buying a 60” flail mower, so wish me luck...

Dealer had just ordered more valve kits today, and expects to see them late this week. If that works out, they’ll get me all assembled and delivered early next week. Gonna feel like forever!!!

Congratulations. Gonna be a sweet rig with all the implements. Good choice on 3rd function. I'm glad I had it installed on mine.

Yeesh!!! Seems like it’s been forever...

Tractor ordered last Monday. Third function kit had to be ordered from Kubota, as the dealer was out at that time.

Valve kit arrived Thursday.

Tractor all set up with extra parts and pieces on Monday (yesterday).

Was REALLY hoping to see it delivered today, but no... scheduled for tomorrow.

The sucky part is I have an appointment in town at 3:00 that will go till 5:00. It’ll be 6:00 before I get home, which is getting close to dusk now...

Maybe I’ll call in sick on Thursday so I can fart around with it...

Your pretty fortunate to get a 3rd function kit from Kubota so quickly. When I ordered one it took about 9 weeks a year or so ago. Mine was a different model of tractor, and probably less popular, and older.

Ran home to meet the delivery guy. Everything looks great! I pulled the grader scraper around for about 3 minutes, but couldn’t stay. Unfortunately, I had to get back to the office for a lunch meeting. Hopefully I can shred some berry brush tonight...

Only 3 hours on the meter so far, and I’ve got a pile of blackberry briars piled up that’s bigger than my garage... This thing is rad.
