2009 Kubota BX 1860
Gentlemen,
I finally picked her up yesterday from the dealership and stayed up until 0200 this morning tinkering with it. These tractors run like the wind and turn on a dime. The seat is extremely comfortable and the floor space is awesome. The 48" loader is a beast and the 54" Woods back deck mower is everything I expected it to be. I opted not to go with the Kubota canopy as it just didn't look right. I'm having a custom made aluminum one made along with a chrome exhaust pipe coming straight up from the manafold. I absolutley love this BX 1860 tractor and I'm glad I went with Kubota. Enjoy the photos gents !

The only thing I see wrong with it is that it does not have any scratches in the paint or any dirt on it. I hope you fix that soon.

JimBrown/North Dakota,
You should have seen her last night before the Missouri rains came. I dug some foxholes for the kids to play in and left her sitting outside. Woke up this morning and the rain cleaned her all up :)

Congrats on the tractor.
The only thing I see wrong is your safety chains are hooked to your truck the wrong way. They should be hooked from the bottom up, not dropped in the holes. The way you have them they could become unhooked if you hit a good size pothole or bump.

Congrats. Nice looking tractor. I know how you feel. I felt the same in May05 when the dealer delivered my new Kubota B7510HST (21 hp engine, 17 hp pto) with the LA302 FEL. Used that honey for 3 years to do a lot of work around my new 10 acre spread here in the North Sacramento Valley.

Decided last year to become a hay farmer and put 6 of my 10 acres into winter oats. Traded that 7510 for a new 2008 Mahindra 5525 (54 hp engine, 45 hp pto).
