Update: I ended up with a 2380. Neither of the options listed in my original post! Guess I kind of split the difference. Ultimately, the decision came down to availability. Apparently there is a serious shortage of subcompact tractors right now, at least in my area. The 2680 would have been available at the dealerships near me later in January/feb. As I need this machine for snow removal, that wasn稚 going to work. So, went with what seemed like the only 2380 in the state. With front mount blower and mower. Loader will come later when funds allow.
Got to use the blower on about 6 over the weekend and was really impressed how the whole machine combo worked. I actually look forward to using it on a more substantial storm. I知 sure that excitement will fade after a few face-fulls of wind blown snow! Guess I need a cab.
