I greatly prefer the B2601 dashboard. I don't really like digital dash, hard to see in sunlight. All I really need is a rev counter, but I do like to be able to see that.I made the mistake of sitting in LX seat and it ruined the B2601 operator station for me
Frustration with waiting on new Kubota order
- Thread starter seankirbydp
- Start date
I too am waiting for a front-end loader for my 2401 that is ready at the dealers. The dealer wants me to close the deal so that they can put it on this months sales. but I am Leary, because I do not know how long the loader will be delayed.

Just received this response from Kubota Customer Care...where I asked them about my L2501DT on order since May 5...
Thank you for contacting Kubota Customer Satisfaction.

So...same story from Dealer...they have no idea when orders will be filled...hard to imagine a Supply Chain where you don't know when you can fulfill customer orders...

It might be worse if you bought a tractor, loader and backhoe that was in stock 85 days ago and still have nothing. Between assembly delay, wrong tire delay, faulty parts delay and Kubota factory support delay I had no use of the tractor but they have every dime of the money. Today a lady from the dealership called asking about my purchase experience, only then did she find out the tractor is wasting away in their lot.

Doesn't bode well for the RTV X900 I ordered a couple of weeks ago. Dealer said it may not arrive until late September but we may get lucky and get an earlier delivery. They say patience is a virtue but it is not fun.

Congrats on the tractor! When did you order?Finally got my tractor folks, arrived on my birthday, a present to myself
I am in month 6, still no idea when mine is coming.
Thanks, I ordered in mid March and lucky I did or it would be a few more months wait. I think my salesman said it would be a six month wait at this point. By the way, if you able to… get pallet forks with your order, I wish I did.

Just showing how common long lead times are now, my wife and I ordered a new couch and loveseat in April.
Retailer said expect 6 months lead...."normal" for that company was 6 weeks or so.

I ordered an RTV X900 two weeks ago and Friday the dealer told me Kubota was saying they (dealer) should receive the unit the last week in August. If that holds it will be around 6 weeks for me as well.
My dealer is telling me that Kubota is no longer giving expected dates for delivery. I have gone through three different dates, all have come and gone. Now, there is not a date my dealer can give me. They are slowly getting things in no much in the series I ordered (Grand L) and he has not had a backhoe come in since March.
