Possibly purchasing a B2910

[LandHoarder]

I’m looking at buying a B2910 with 1740” gently used hours on it. The asking price is $8200. The tractor appears to be well maintained and taken care of. Here is some of the listing;

comes with many upgrades , Power Steering , Tilt and Telescoping steering wheel, 6 foot RC72 mid mount mower , Turf Tires , Telescoping 3 Point Hitch arms and Stabilizers , Adjustable Suspension Seat , Canopy , Rubber floorboard mat. Turn Signals , Emergency Flashers, Headlights. Always stored in Barn under roof. This tractor has been well maintained and serviced with all filters and fluids being changed on schedule , There is No sheet metal damage or dents , All lights are present No cracked lenses and all work as they should. A few dents/cracks at corners of canopy , and seat has a few cracks at base but not on the sitting surface, both are fully serviceable, normal wear for this year model

Any help, comments are greatly appreciated. Thanks for all your time and help.

Does it have a FEL?

No front end loader

Does it have any implements? What do you plan on using it for? Things like loaders and mid mount mowers can be harder to find for older tractors.

More importantly, the brackets to mount implements to the frame are often terribly hard to find. In general, I believe as soon as Kubota stops manufacturing a particular model of tractor they also stop manufacturing the brackets to mount things like mid-mount mowers. At least that seems to be the story my dealer is telling me.

It currently has a 72” mid mount on it. I only plan on using it for mowing.

For just mowing, good tractor, sounds like a decent grab

Sounds like a good deal.

personally speaking whether you use it for just mowing or not, the FEL increases the resale price. You going to keep it forever or off it at some timer in the future?Myself, I'd never buy any unit without a loader, even if I wasn't going to use it.

Well Flip with that premise you will miss a lot of bargains. Buying something you don't need, store it...so you can sell it sometime later, not too sensible. There are a lot of folks who really don't need a loader.

The B6100 I posted pictures of today was a two wheel drive, no loader, just used for mowing. The dealer tried to move me to a larger (and 4x4), but I new what I wanted and bought just that. No regrets at all.

I have another tractor with FEL, so I don’t see it as a necessity on this tractor , since it’s for mowing only. Thanks again for all the input. I will be picking up the tractor on Saturday.
