Can anyone giveme some input? I have narrowed my search down to the B7500 and the BX2200, but am a little unsure which way to go. I have about two flat acres to mow currently, but have intentions of moving to at least four within the next couple of years. Is the B7500 that much harder to maneuver than the BX2200? My property is mostly open, with few radical courses around trees. The worst will be limbing trees to 7 feet. With the B7500, at least the ROPS folds down.
I really like the comfort of the B7500, the cruise control, smoother ride, etc., but I am afraid that I might regeret a larger tractor. I plan on purchasing a FEL and a 60" MMM with either tractor, and am sure a rear tiller, rear blade, and other implements will be in order in the not so distant future.
I believe the larger tires will be more helpful with a load in the bucket, or with a rear implement attached. Is this incorrect? I really did not notice a vast difference in turning radius with the larger tires (or tractor), as the tractors are really not that much different in overall size, other than height.
