In what category does a BX1500 belong? It's smaller than most sub-cuts but larger than a garden tractor. Would it be called a micro-utility tractor, a micro-compact utility tractor? I woud guess, however, that side by side, a BX1500 and a garden tractor with a loader and cat 0 hitch wouldn't look too far apart in size. The size difference between "real" tractors and wanna-be's is getting ever smaller.
Post Edit: Just checked 'Bota & JD sites to see what's the biggest thing classified as a garden tractor. The JD X595SE "Garden Tractor" has a 3 cyl. 24hp. water cooled diesel engine, 6.5 gal. tank, 62" MMM, FEL, and Cat. 1 hitch. Looks like it's getting impossible to tell where garden tractors end and sub-CUTs begin; they overlap /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif . So who decides these designations anyway?
