Finally getting a BX25D

[macguyver13]

After wanting a small tractor for about 2 years now I finally ordered a Kubota BX25D this morning. I should be able to have it delivered next week.

The way my wife works is she never wants to spend money so I have to plant an idea in her head and let it sit there for a while. The more money the longer it needs to sit. I just finished paying off my car so it seemed like the time to strike. I got a quote on what I wanted last week and told her all about it. Yesterday after work she says that I can get my tractor, so I went by this morning on the way to work and did the deal.

Now I can't wait for it to come as I have so many projects I want to use it on. Here are the details:

-BX25D with brush guard, 3pt. hitch, 12" bucket on backhoe
-LandPride grapple including install of the 3rd function kit (Kubota offers $500 off right now if you get an implement with the BX25D)
-Quick Attach for easy switching of the FEL and grapple

I got it for $19,000 even. I'm sure there are better deals out there, but I feel like I got a good enough deal for where I am and what I wanted. Here's to hoping I have something other than a giant slab of granite under my property (rural NH) so the backhoe can do some digging.

I'll post some pictures of it when I get it. Might be late next week or early the week after as the dealer is very busy right now.

Welcome aboard and Ditto on Dragoneggs. We BXers are an elite group here here on TBN. We trade a lot of info and even some secrets. Questions with pictures guarantee a response and a lot of dialog. Usually you will get some responses way off subject but that makes for interested reading even if not helpful.

Congrats. My BX2350 still impresses me to this day. Great machines and very solid. If you are working in the woods be sure to put a skid plate on it first to avoid destroying the hydro fan, among other things.
