Anticipating my new B3030

[BXBota]

Just sitting at my computer eagerly waiting for my new B3030 to arrive! After much thought I finally decided to trade the BX2200 for a B3030 before the year ends.

Don't worry, I promise pictures will be posted before the day is over. It looks like I'll also need to change my signature.

I suspect you got the cab version and will post pictures of you toasty and warm while blowing mountains of snow off into the woods while the rest of us freeze? Congratulations on your new addition. I lived in Hadley for about 10 years. Very nice area.

No, I didn't go for the cab version. I even considered for a brief time not buying the Kubota snowblower and getting by with the FEL on the 3030 and my Troy-Bilt walking snowblower. The past two storms that dumped over a foot of snow convinced me otherwise. I think I spent over 4 hours blowing snow this past storm between the driveway, walkways, deck, and clearing for Yorkie potty area.

We spend a lot of time in Hadley. With our two hockey players we're always at the UMASS rink and are either eating out or shopping in the Hadley area. I agree it's a great area to live.

Hey congrats !!! Looking for to the pics later today. I know i will eventually talk Whats-Her-Name into letting me buy a new cab 3030, but for now my used B2400 is doing a great job. May i ask where you made the purchase?

Tractor was purchased from Emerich's in Charleton, NY. They gave me a lower price on tractor but less on my trade than Ahearn in Spencer, MA but bottom line they were about $800 less and also included three hooks welded to FEL, loaded rear tires, and free delivery which was about a 2 hour trip.

Here it is coming down the driveway:

Inside the garage:

This is the last time the tractor will register less than 1 hour so I had to get a pic of that:

Can't wait now for the next dumping of snow to try out that snowblower

Judging by the poster on the wall... that's a Mustang under cover?

Your going to love the B3030. Its been a year now since I got my B7800 and boy what a machine. I never use my wheelbarrow around the property any more since the FEL is so convienent. I ended up getting a Woods back hoe, BH-70X and a Woods rear blade RB-72. Just some thoughts on how to spend your money. Get some pics posted of the snow blower in action!
