What is $2000 or $33 a month if you finance worth to YOU? The BXs are the "BETTER" mower between the two for nimbleness. I would be/am a bit skittish when I take my BX into the woods which I wouldn't do if I had a FEL on my B2320. If you can do woods jobs with your other tractor then BX. If your going to be in the woods alot with your new small tractor then maybe the B. You can buy/make plates to cover underside of BX for some bucks or keep the mower on it all the time which I did with my first BX2200. I got it hung up on a pile of trees one time but you can get it off with your big tractor if you do. But, there is one thing you can't do for a BX and that's give it more ground clearance which is the good/bad thing about the BX.
Having another tractor available makes choices different than for the single tractor owner as TripleR has told you.
Go sit on them/drive them and then you'll know.:thumbsup:

Thanks for the info! I'm 6'4" and the B is more comfortable for me. It just feels better all the way around.

The only concern I have with the B is mowing with it. And that will be it's primary job along with yard maint, etc. I will not mow in 4x4 so that's not an issue. Dealer said the B would mow fine.

My gut tell's me to stick with the B... I like the bigger tires, high clearance, bigger loader, slower running engine, 3 ranges, etc.

Decisions decisions! :laughing:

I had the same decision last fall. I use mine for 60% mowing, some snow clearing (not this year) and some work in the woods. I will also be picking up a 4' brush hog to maintain my back field. I wanted the clearance but was also concerned about mowing. I'm here to tell you that I am very happy with my choice. My tractor does an outstanding job of mowing and it is a pure joy to drive. I have R4 tires. You have to be a bit careful when the ground is soft and avoid really tight turns but I have become used to this and I have no issues mowing with this machine. It's nimble enough to navigate tight areas and large enough to make a small job of mowing the 2+ acres of mowable grass on our lot. I also have a few other acres of woods and tall grass.

My choice? The B2620... Chosen over a BX2660 and a B2320. I opted for the 2620 vs the 2320 mainly because of opinion on this board that the 2620 seems to be the sweet spot of the B lineup... And the cost differential was not that great.

I have an LA364, 60" MMM and a ballast box.

Thank you very much for the info! You've really help answer my questions regarding mower performance. :thumbsup:

I'm curious about the 2320 vs 2620. The only difference is HP correct? Physical size, etc is all the same... right?

You can see all the specs on kubota.com under products --> tractors --> b2320/2620/2920 --> specifications. Looking at the spec sheet I see these differences: Motors, transmission case capacity, bigger ones are not available in Gear (HST only), tire size is slightly smaller on the b2320, speeds are a little different for the HST on the b2320, B2320 is ~2" shorter overall and 4" narrower, B2320 has .8" less ground clearance, B2320 is 100 lbs lighter.

Most notably however the loader is different LA364 on the B2620 and B2920 VS LA304 on the B2320. The LA364 is a bit heavier duty with better capacities, but i think you can order it on the B2320 as well. All can be equipped with the BH65 backhoe. Hope that helps.

Differences that I know of are:

Engine size
Slightly different tranny
Tires front 6-12 vs 7-12
Tires rear 9.5-16 vs 11.2-16
Slight difference in traveling speeds
Length 93.9 vs 95.1
Width 45.1 vs 49
Ground clearance 12.0 vs 12.8
Tread slightly larger on 2620
Weight 1477 vs 1554

Someone correct me if wrong. The specs are on a PDF on the web site for greater detail... GOOD LUCK!

Is it possible all the dimensions are slightly different because tire size is different?
