    Wonder what the hood scoop is for?

    Also wonder if the larger, full width door makes entry/exit any easier?

    Looks like Kubota is changing out many of the loader mounts across their lineup to the new single plate design. I wonder if there's more than just a material/cost savings. Like maybe they found the older, dual plate mounts were way over-designed? I just wonder how the new single plate design will hold up in the long term compared to the old double plate designs.
    Look at the number of "Don't Do's" affixed to the loader mast....

    The loader frame is quite different on the B3350 that's for sure.

    I think he means you can thank the government for the price increase due to added emissions equipment.

    its venting for the emissions system . You'll see some kind of venting on most everything from 27-150 Hp for these systems. That, or the hood melts, for real... we've seen product delays from some vendors for melting hoods.

    So glad I picked up my B3000 and didn't wait for the B3350. Too much heat under the hood? Nice.

    If I was going to be buying in the near future I think I would speed up the decision and avoid the new tier 4 engine.

    I read this on a local dealers website:

    * New B2650 and B3350 Cab Tractors, larger cabs, high performance a/c, universal quick-coupler

    Does anyone know what the "universal quick-coupler" is? It's definitely got my curiosity.
