Well it's coming down to a new B2660 or a MF GC24/2600 because of the 0% financing. Leaning towards the Kubota for the vast network available of dealers, special equipment, knowledge base.
Here is why I'm in the market. Just picked up a house w/ 2.3 acres. Almost all lawn. Pretty much flat. Have about 400 ft of asphalt drive. House needs landscaping work and grading. (Moving rocks/dirt/mulch) Initial buy is tractor, FEL, MMM, front plow. Other stuff to come obviously, but I need to have the winter covered. In SE Michigan, we don't get the regular heavy snow falls others get in Mi, so I think the plow should do. Between the FEL and my 24" 2 stage blower from my current house, I think I can handle a really "big" blizzard in a pinch. The 2 Dealers I talked to r saying to go with R4 tires since I am going to get a plow for snow work. They say turfs not good in snow and they won't hurt your lawn.
For the usual 4" - 6" snow falls we get, can I get away with a blade, R4's, and some heavy ballast in the rear? Just curious how much snow a plow mounted on these can handle.
