B7800 REVIEW

[kingyippie]

When I decided to buy a compact tractor I did a lot of reading on this forum and on manufacturer's websites. This may sound crazy, but I never once went and sat on any of the tractors I was looking at. Nobody around here had anything I was considering. I finally settled on the Kubota B7800, FEL, BH, Hydro either by shear intuition or by the Spirit. All I can say is I LOVE THIS MACHINE! So does my wife. I just couldn't be happier. This thing is more powerful and maneuverable than I ever expected. It's amazing the tight spots I can get in, and the damage I can do once there. This may sound like a company ad, but I'm crazy about this beautiful machine. I can't imagine there's anything out there any better suited to my needs and budget. If you're considering a compact and thought about a B7800 CHECK ONE OUT.

Oh, and HYDROSTATIC OR DIE!!!!

King,

Yep, tractors sure are fun. They're not cheap, but they're worth every dime. Glad to hear you AND your wife are enjoying the new rig. It's a great machine for the money. I believe there are quite a few 7800 owners here to chat with.....

Be sure to stop by the Safety Discussion section now and again. There are a lot of good comments, stories and opinions worth reading. One of the most important things I can think of is to make sure and kill the engine and set the brake before you do anything to the machine while you are out of the seat. It doesn't matter what you are doing....set the brake and shut it down. It takes less than a second to start it and get rolling again.

Do you have some pics to show us your baby? /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

FEL: is it a LA402 or a LA403?
BH: BL4690 or BH75?

Good choice
