Bought a 2300!

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( I am new to this board, and like many people that are in the market for a compact tractor, I did a lot of research and checked out and compared all the other brands (JD, CC, NH, Kubota etc.)
)</font>

If I was buying another Sub Compact I would get a Massy;that way I would have both.

Nope, the Kubota and Massey weigh the same, have the same ground clearance and the same size tires (the Massey has larger rims on the front but the tires have smaller sidewalls than the Kubota).

True, the Massey barely outspecs the Kubota, but the bottom line is that they both can do the same jobs. Where the Massey beats the Kubota "hands down" is looks -- sure is one sharp lookin' tractor. My BX22 is butt-ugly.

Can you refresh me on how much you paid one more time please.

No that doesnt include a mower deck.
The purpose of my post was not to compare purchase prices, it was simply to pass on some info. I just threw the $15500 out there figuring thats about what he would take, good, bad or indifferent.
Truth is that Im leaning more towards a BX23 for financing reasons anyway so call me stupid, I will probably pay a little more from a local dealer.

I am also new here. Got the 2300 yesterday. I live only 2 miles from the dealer. Could not stand driving by the display yard everyday. Good luck there casey, it is a good machine. many of the 2300 around here. We do not have dirt here we have sand, and four wheel is the only thing that works.

Just to add fire to this post, here is a GC2310, I saw today, in Effingham, ILL, they listed the price for TLB as 15000. They let me play a little bit, and took this photo, it looks like the hoe has nice reach. PS, thats my work truck in the back ground, SRS 807

Had wrong photo, this is the correct one.

Here is one reason I would choose the BX23 over the MF2310.
Populairty:
There has to be a reason Kubota outsells MF on these Sub Cuts.
Popularity means better resale value and or makes reselling easier.
