    2023 B2601 with commercial blower and brush hog - 29hrs - fair price?

    A lot of the used B2601 around here had belly mowers and back hoes. I didn’t want either so it eliminated a lot of potential used ones for me.

    2023 B2601 with commercial blower and brush hog - 29hrs - fair price?

    I paid $18,000 for my 2023 B2601 with a box blade, front end loader, and pallet forks with 52 hours on it. I not sure what a snow blower or bush hog runs but my estimate for new on mine was $26k. So I saved 8k. I can’t imagine the seller would get more than $24K for it. But what do I...

    Aftermarket step for the Kubota B2601

    Why are you afraid to drill a hole in the deck? If you attach a bucket bar like a piranha tooth bar you have to drill holes in the bucket and it's thicker than the deck is. Isn't the 2401 the same chassis as the 2601 just manual drive? The after market or OEM should work. You just need the...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    I got my tractor back from the dealer yesterday and spent today landplaning the drive, the neighbor's drive and some forest trails around the house. It was very satisfying. Sorry I didn't take any pictures. Tractoring is so much more fun than housework.

    B2601 PTO and PTO Position lever not moving

    a Kubota B2601 tractor will not start if the PTO (Power Take-Off) lever is in the engaged position. Safety thing. You’ll have to get that lever to move to disingage the PTO. Hopefully one of the other people will have more advice

    Price shopping story

    Here’s the little beauty now. If I can only get my tractor back from the dealer I can use it. How long does it take to fix a tire?

    Price shopping story

    So I want a Land Pride GS1560 for my tractor and the local dealer did not have one but they could order one for me for $2500. So I called a dealer about 40 miles away and he says they have 2 and they are $2400. I called a 3rd one and they have one for $1895 plus tax. It pays to shop around.

    Happily tractoring this morning until my tire cried

    I was happily box blading all over the property. Yes there was some rocks and roots and rough places (that's why I was box blading). I was singing the "Green Acres" theme song. The birds were singing. Squirrels were chirping. Deer were playing. Angels were doing whatever angels do, and...
