Comparison Looking to buy b2650 or b2601 - *pictures inside!

[CobaltSky]

Thanks all for weighing in with your experiences, perspective, and recommendations. Considering the price of the MMM I very likely could have bought a nice used zero turn in stead. Alas, that is not the direction I took. I went with the b2650, 60"MMM deck, front loader with 60" QA bucket, 3rd function valve for loader, and the dealer recommended I do a 60" box blade, instead of the 54" I had requested. This he upgraded for no extra charge. I am still 50/50 on turf r3 vs the r4s, I did end up choosing the turf tires. Now I must wait the tractor is ready next week. Then I can put it to the test!
I was sent a teaser pic of the machine being equipped to my specifications.View attachment 459488

do you mind sharing the deal you got? I'm in the market for a remarkably similar setup and trying to gather some price data. Dealer here was right at MSRP

Heck, Mr. SpartanOrange how about posted your cost (rough) along with some photos after you get your new tractor home? A lot of us like to know what things actually cost, and by the way, that looks like a fine set of choices you made! You'll probably be happy with the turfs on your grass if your soil is anything like what I am used to in Indiana and Maryland, although the R4s would likely have been a better choice for messing about in your woods. I might have gone with a dedicated mower or a 5' rear finish mower, but who knows? You will like the SSQA, too!
