Buying Advice BX vs B for 7 acres

[gumshu]

Get the B. I have a nice BX, but had to buy a larger tractor because the BX does not have the power for working on acerage.

Would go with the B as you need to think down the road. More implements new projects, more cup holders :laughing:You will want to do many more things with your tractor, and having a tractor you can expand on easier, will be less costly than buying the upgrade.

I am new to this site, and was referred to this thread by TripleR. This discussion has been useful for me. I am considering a BX2360 to tend a 7 acre acre island which is about half wooded, and the open space studded with rocks. I think I need a bush hog type mower so that I can back to clif edges, pull up over rocks or roots, and take care of larger piles of twigs/limbs. It is sounding like the BX25 or the smallest B might be a better choice.
Hope you keep the discussion going.

Pat, welcome to TBN. I might suggest you start a fresh thread on your own specific needs and questions. This thread is aging. You might find better responses??

Ground clearance is the biggest difference between the BX and B. It appears to me that you've described a need for higher ground clearance. Reread the thread if your still looking at a BX over a B for your needs. I have both so I'm not pushing the one I have but the one that meets your needs.
