2009 B2620 upgrade

[ktaylor@rootarchitecture.]

Hello, my 2009 B2620 has always amazed me in what it can do. Is the New B2601 just as capable and tough? I have a loader and backhoe and will order the same on the B2601

I don’t think the B2601 would be much of an upgrade from your B2620.

You would be better off looking at the LX tractors.

Thanks for the feedback. I have quotes for both the LX2620 and B2601. The LX with back hoe seems to be around 19’ long and a few inches wider and higher. It also is about 450lbs heavier . This means I may need a new truck and trailer haha. My B2620 is 16 years old and is in great shape but I had two things go wrong on the same day. Just looking for something newer but don’t want to downgrade and be disappointed.

I have a B2650 which is now a LX2620. And I’ve got a BH. It does everything I want it too do and more I was very surprised at it’s ability. I would go. One step up and get the LX

Thanks! I have been measuring my garage and trailer seeing if the LX is feasible .

I pulled my B2620 on a 16’ tandem axle trailer. With backhoe and fel attached.

I use an 18’ to trailer my LX2610 tlb.

The B2601 looks to be a like for like replacement of the B2620. Same weight, same engine. My B2601 goes well. If you're looking for the same thing as your B2620, same weight, same capability, just newer, then yes that is 100% what you need.

I think you gain position control vs. the quarter-inching valve.
Big win I think!
Good Luck!
