I've owned a couple of B's but not a B with a BH. Just the current BX25 with a BH. The BH on the BX25 digs good with the size bucket on the BH. It won't pull out deep rooted roots and stumps easily. It digs a trench with precision but I'm not sure I'd be doing footers for a living with a BX. Just for myself and home acreage the BX is fine. Creating drive ways is to broad for me. How long and what type soil and any hurry. Long drive on hard ground, I'd hire a bull dozer to come and do a few passes then I'd finish with my BX or more maintain with my BX. The BX is a small powerful tractor with a small powerful BH but smaller is more time consuming but BX's can do most jobs, in time. Biggest difference for me in BX and B is B has higher ground clearance if that's important and a bit bigger oomph in lift and a bit bigger bucket. I've found that specialized equipment (dozer, track loader, ditching machine) can do a better job in a fraction of the time over a do all machine (tractor). Some jobs I do because I want to do them and some times I'm not sure what I want until I get started doing it myself my way. Other jobs I know what I want and cost vs time constraints and wearing out my machine has me calling in Roy Vice with his track loader. Hope this helps.

Thanks, that does help. I'm planning on building some storage buildings and a 3 acre long driveway..

Hello to the walleye capital!!

Hello to you! Come on down and catch you some! Just don't get stuck on an iceflow... the local boys might bill you for the helicopter ride...

ground clearance. That, (and the larger 3 pt hitch geometry and more gpm in the pump for increased hydraulic power)

Great compare-o, I'm in love with the B series, can't help myself, and your above mentioned benefits seal the deal for me. :drool:

I believe I'll wait til mid May before hitting the walleye trail.:laughing:

The 20 B series are not feature laden over and above the BX. The 30 series B has features that draw one's attention, but one's pocket book needs to be ready for that move.

The differences between the BX and 20 series Bs vary between the obvious, size being the most obvious and 3 range speeds. But there are other, more subtle differences too. The BX has a small trans cooling fan that is white plastic and mounted in a vulnerable place, so adding in a Bro-Tek skid plate for a few hundred bucks is fairly mandatory for working with the mower deck off.

You wouldn't go wrong with either. Just look at them side by side. Know what you're doing and why. And..... Enjoy!!! It is supposed to be exciting buying a tractor.

Here are some picture side by side which isn't as good as the actual side by side but better than nothing.
