My dealer only has a couple B series tractors in stock right now, unusual for them, must be selling well?

I want to trade a 2008 B2320 including FEL, with 140 hours on it and a Ferris IS1500Z zero turn mower in excellent condition. Dealer said my equipment plus $3,500 for the new B2320 with FEL and a 54" Mid Mount Mower. Build my Kubota indicates $18,500 for tractor package.
Would you do this deal? I will ask tomorrow if they included the $750 Rebate.

If all you are adding is the mmm why not just buy that and sell the Ferris outright, or trade the Ferris for the mmm? Is there a difference between a 2008 and new b2320?

Yeah...thinking about that too. Just thought it would be nice to have a brand new one again. I also want to get turf tires one way or another too.

I would have to agree w/ BPW,. There is no difference in the 2008 and current B2320. Just get a MMM and set of turf tires and wheels, and sell/trade the Ferris. With only 140 hours on your current B2320, it's not even hardly broken in.

I talked to more dealers this week, original dealer is actually treating me pretty good with trade in values etc...Now the thing that really motivates me to get a new one is dealer claims there will be no more B2320, B2620, or B2920's made??? It's the perfect size tractor for me. They have to get my new one from another location, so it does seem like production has ended? The B2650 that I have seen is a much larger tractor, I like the current B2320 for manuverability, efficiency and cost.

The B2320 is NOT being replaced. The B2620 & B2920 are being replaced though.

I also don't understand why you'd be trading something for exactly the same thing. At 140hrs your tractor is still new.

First, sell the zero-turn mower and buy a new Kubota mower deck. Second, buy a set of turf tires through whole goods at your Kubota dealer and sell your current tires. I bet you could almost swap the ZTR for a MMM and your current tires for trufs without any money out of pocket.

For crying out loud. 140 hours IS new.

Turf are overated. Just buy the mmm.

The B2920 is being replaced as I heard.... Not the B2320 or the B2620. Tier IV is over 26 hp according to my dealer, because I'm looking at a B2620 after I sell my BX2660. The B2320 has never been in question. It's not going anywhere.

Well that's good to hear. I still want a new one though. Mine is dusty, has a scratch on the hood, has little pieces of weeds in hard to clean places from brush cutting. You know, just generally worn out.:laughing:;)
