Well I pulled the trigger today.

Should have new Kubota L2501 delivered by end of next week.

Ordered the Land Pride SGC0660 grapple as opposed to the EA unit due to the lead time on the EA. I think the LP unit will do what I need anyway.

Final order was -
2018 L2501 4wd HST filled R4 tires
2 rear remotes
LP 3rd function
66 inch SSQA bucket
LP SGC0660
LP grader scraper
LP 60 inch bush hog
LP quick hitch
48 inch pallet forks
And a stihl pole saw lol.

Out the door for $26,088 financed at 0 for 72. Really looking forward to being a tractor owner again.

Absolutely. Pics will be inbound.

Already have several giant piles of pruned limbs lol. And about 4 acres of brush to clear. Amongst a million other chores.

Nice setup. I have the L2501HST really like it. Which polesaw did you get? I also got one at my Kubota dealer its the Stihl HT-131. Little heavy at first, but I was used to using a manual polesaw. The HT-131 IS a beast, I should have got one years ago, same with my tractor.

Thanks. I got the 56.

And can't wait to get the tractor. Long list of projects.

Received the tractor Friday. Put about 7 hours in it. Very impressed overall.

Other than the Treadle Pedal I love it. But after 7 hours I'm convinced my 06 JD 3720 and it's 2 separate pedals are far superior. Hopefully I'll get used to that.

Trying to upload pics now.

I see you got quite a few implements to start! I just bought an L2501 also, should be able to pick it up on Friday. (they had to get one from another dealer, all they had were DT's, no HST in stock) All I ordered with it was the standard bucket, hay bale stinger and the LP 60" bush hog. Talk to me about the quick hitch and pallet forks-Not sure what the quick hitch is, and pretty sure I want pallet forks, are there not some that can just mount to the bucket? What is a LP 3rd Function, and what do the remotes do? (sorry, very new to tractors, moving up from a Craftsman yard mower!) Thanks,
