Well, your right the trailer is a little big,(24') but if I have the blade the rake and the fel it fills up real quick! We also take our two motorcycles and the lotus super 7 on vacation with us, its nice to be able to take some toys with us for a change, cause cycling in the rain isn't fun anymore and the super 7 isn't much different.
The blade is a 48" and it is built very well still not to crazy about the extra part to hold the tines, but I like the spring loaded rear edge. So far my neighbor has more time on it than I do. I do like the size, just covers the tracks and can still get into all the smaller spots. My neighbor has normally been a large trackor,loader and dozer person and we're having a blast he plays with the bx and I get to use one of the cases. As you already know these little tractors can go places the big ones can't and his crawler can do stuff in half the time by bx can.
Anyway if you can live with the extra part the kubota blade uses and the money isn't an issue buy orange. There are alot of other blades out and it was getting alittle confusing with all the choices out there and some of them are not built to well. If something happens an I need a part the dealer either has it in stock or I get it the next day they have not made me wait for anything ! so thats worth something, how much thats in your court. Kubota doesn't make a rake or I would probably have bought it. Although he's got a real nice orange rotory tiller right now....hmmm.
