And looking for ideas on the value of a 2016 B2650 ROPS with loader, 330 hours, block heater and 40 amp alternator.

Seriously toying with the idea of going to a L3901 or thereabouts... But its going to depend on what the value of my 2650 is... I haven't talked to a dealer because the lunacy is still in its infancy.

I think you need to consult with D2 about an emergency meeting of Kubota Anonymous....:D

Just add one more so you can have 3.... each kid should have something to run, right?

They would love that...

I wonder if they would trade their college funds for a tractor. That would be a win win for me!

But in all seriousness.... When I went tractor shopping, I limited the size because I was going to be mowing with it. The 2650 was a good fit for that task in addition to everything else I wanted to do. But now that I'm not using the tractor to mow, I can up-size a bit and not be lacking in things like firewood duty and ground work. I really am tasking the 2650 with all the tasks I have around here.. It gets the job done, but bigger wouldn't hurt anything.

Specifically more loader capacity....

You won't gain much in loader capacity the LA525 loader on the L3901 lifts about the same as yours but you will gain in some other areas like PTO HP.

Compare price with 3901, you might be surprised. Aldermans had a used 4060 for a while.

Hate to think of how cold that shed might get in the winter.
