Dave41,
Why call the LA272 LOWLY? I just purchased the same loader on a B7500 figuring the 60# was no big deal for me, either, but now you have me thiking there is something else? Should I insist on the 302 before I pick up the B7500? To my understanding, the LA302 also has a grille guard, which my dealer says is worth $98 if I want to purchase it. I do not figure I need that, either.
