First time tractor owner from Foristell, Missouri

Just bought a Kubota BX23S to help take care of my wife's huge garden (huge to do by hand ;-), some landscaping around the house and to clear some paths through my 2 acres of woods. Also have several chickens and rabbits and need to set them up with a larger coop/run.

Looking forward to learning more and sharing experiences.

Nice. I'm about 15 minutes west of you.

About to purchase either a B2650 or L2501. Did you buy from the kubota dealer in warrenton?

Actually bought from the dealer in Chesterfield. It was closer to my wife's work and she had final approval

Never been to the chesterfield guy. Is he pretty competitive?

I was wanting a BX at first, still not convinced they wouldn't be fine for me but in the end I think I need the additional weight when clearing the back few acres with the loader.

Good luck with yours and please post some pictures

Yeah, the guy in Chesterfield gave me a good deal.

It came last week and the first thing I did was put on the tiller and take care of my wife's garden and then made her another one (I was having fun)! Next day I put the backhoe back on and dug out about a 18" diameter pine tree stump! This thing is going to be handy around here!

My salesman dropped off a BX23S when they picked up my M7060 to take to the dealer for a leaking remote. I had it for the weekend and I was surprised how strong that little tractor was. With a dedicated tooth bar, I'm sure it would dig quite well. One thing for sure is, wear your seat belt on those little things, they sure throw ya around.
