    BX23S will not drive or move loader/backhoe

    Seat safety switch? Pedal/stick linkage broken or bent?

    How many customers does the treadle pedal cost Kubota?

    I think the same question can be asked of JD. I prefer the treadle over the twin and when I use our JD I find the pedals are too close together for my big feet. And don't think Kubota hasn't asked themselves the same question. If they felt it would gain them incremental sales and there was a...

    BX23S dealer trade or private sale?

    This summer I sold my 600 hour 2017 BX25D with loader, backhoe, and 60" mid mower for $22 k, private. This is in Canada. I think you'll take a pretty heavy haircut if you dealer trade.

    Which way goes up on head gasket?

    It should be poke yoked so it only fits one way.

    BX2380 - FEL Excavation Project - Possible or no?

    It can absolutely be done - I've done similar with my old BX25 (now sold). I cleared a 20x30 shed and a 30x30 area for a pad. I didn't have as many trees as you have though. The cutting edge will help - a lot. It will be hard on your tractor. You will want to remove the mower. A box blade...

    Can't decide on a tractor for the life of me.

    I have a BX25, and a B2650. I'm selling the Bx25 because it's too small for my needs (25acres, 12 field and 12 forest) but I had the BX for 3 years and I tell you it really punches above it's weight. With the attachments in the ad, I think what you see there is a good deal providing its'...

    Downsizing Newb

    Nice machine, looks well taken care of. Those little BX really punch above their weight class. I'm in the opposite position as you, need to sell mine as I bought something a touch bigger for my 25 acres.. I used the BX for 3 years on that property and it did very well. I will miss the backhoe!!

    Decision Overload

    Unpopular opinion - You have just a couple of acres - you don't need anything very large. From your list the B would be more than enough and you could probably make do with a BX. You could easily find one of those with a BH for the price you are looking for and have money left over . BX really...

    Hope you didn't expect an unbiased opinion on a Kubota forum did you? :LOL:
