    I purchased seven or eight BXpanded items and I discovered that the Trencher was just enough out of spec to prevent it from being mounted on the Quick-On. Just a teensy 1/8” inch. I called BXpanded and got Dave Norberg. Dave said he would get a replacement out to me. Three-days after my phone...

    Frustration with waiting on new Kubota order

    We ordered our BX23S beginning of July and got it just short of 6 months later. Still missing a couple of accessories, like the 3-pt. hitch, but it did eventually come. Hang in there... it'll happen.

    Frustration with waiting on new Kubota order

    So, I received a picture of my BX23s sitting at my dealership from my salesman yesterday. Not all of my order is in, but enough for them to deliver the tractor next week. They have to pull another credit report and put the contract together, but if all goes well, and it should, just shy of 6...

    Frustration with waiting on new Kubota order

    Okay, thank you. I really only have one choice and that's to keep waiting "patiently." Saw your picture and that's a really nice tractor! Congratulations!

    Frustration with waiting on new Kubota order

    Is your dealership one of those big ones that members here say are able to get tractors more than the smaller dealers? Are you in the eastern US... closer to Georgia where I read the Kubota's are manufactured? I'm trying to figure out why some of are still waiting after half a year... In the...

    Frustration with waiting on new Kubota order

    Well, it sounds like you need yours for your livelihood, whereas I just need mine for home projects. My plan, like you though, also included snow removal. We just got a boatload of snow up here in The Black Hills and I can't get up my driveway... So, adding insult to the wait, I just called...

    Frustration with waiting on new Kubota order

    Hey, congratulations! I'm coming up on 5-months since I ordered our BX23s... so maybe, just maybe, it will get here this year... but I'm beginning to doubt it. I wonder if anybody on this forum, who ordered a BX23s back in July, has had it delivered? I spoke with my sales guy last week and he...

    Frustration with waiting on new Kubota order

    I chose the BX23s because it seems the best fit for my needs. I've also got a stack of BXpanded accessories for it sitting in the shed. So though I cannot advise you in your situation, nor do I have any remote expertise on tractors like the many folks contributing in this forum, I can tell you...

    Frustration with waiting on new Kubota order

    I ordered a BX23s four-months-ago. My dealer called me yesterday and told me that Kubota is no longer providing them with estimates and he has no idea when I'll get my scut. I look back four-months-ago at my naivete and excitement that I'll be able to put away my shovel and wheel barrow...

    As of October 15, 2021, still waiting for my BX23s (ordered July 2nd). "Maybe in October?" was my latest update from the salesman. As this is the current state of everything, all I can do is wait like everybody else in the world. Our neighbor ordered their new prefab house in April of 2021...

    Huh. Interesting. I ordered my Kubota on July 2nd. A friend ordered his comparable Bobcat TLB from the same dealership that I ordered from... several weeks AFTER I ordered mine. A short time after I found out today that Kubota hasn't even started building my tractor yet, his new Bobcat arrived...

    Congratulations, SGT13, I'm envious. I ordered mine on 02-July and was just informed this morning that the soonest I "might" see it is the end of October. Sign of the times.... Good luck with yours!

    Thanks, Rich, I'm really looking forward to its arrival. We get snow, but not 44 inches of it. I'll use it to move gravel, remove stumps, light excavating, and basically all the stuff that I just can't do manually anymore. By the way, I am COMPLETELY unfamiliar with forums. When I entered...

    As of August 27, 2021, waiting for my BX23s to arrive. "Maybe in September?" The only knowledge I have is from printing off the owners manual to read and watching as many YouTubes as I can. I will likely never have anything to offer here, so I am here to learn and appreciate the...
