Dan thanks for taking the time to post the pics! Man you can't beat the looks of the new 2500's that for sure. I still don't get a warm'n fuzzy over the exhaust blowing through that plastic grille though. I'd be tempted to heat wrap just the outlet pipe. Too bad there's no way to mod the exhaust on these with that hood design.

Looks almost as good as mine. You have some snow to deal with as well it seems.
The snow banks are like taking forever to melt. We had highs in the 50's - 60 degree weather for the last couple of days and the banks are going down so ever so slowly . I beleive we are to be back in the fortys for a few days again...

Yep I agree, the exhaust however does not really jump out at ya just kinda reminds me of a snorkle when ya look at it. If you are not really looking at it you dont really notice it though.
I guess its better than having the exhaust pointing at the ground toasting the lawn... my previous tractor had the exhaust pointing downwards... and if you let it run for a short time on the lawn (parked) you would end up with a large yellow spot.

Yup. I still have about 6" left in the yard, with some good size banks. Going fast though...

Oh yes, the previous generation 2K series like mine leaves the tell-tale burnt spot. The exhaust blasts out the side down low, but the heat that radiates from the muffler is what burns the lawn if you stay in one spot too long. 'Bout the only good thing about the previous gen exhaust is, it takes a lot of the heat away from the PTO and engine.

How much would a tiller front blade and ag rear tires add to the $2995?
