Why;I've only put 3 hours on my new B2620 but have noticed a few significant differences between my great old BX1800 and my new B2620. The 2620 is bigger but when the family first saw the new 2620 the comment was ... "it just looks like old Krusty, the 1800". Specs indicate the B2620 is only marginally bigger but the specs seem misleading. When I stand beside the 2620 and other tire sources. I am amazed at how bighthey are. Th fron itres also make teh BX fornts look like The loader is only 2 inches wider but the loader depth is deeper accomodating about 30 % more volume in the bucket. Also when I tried levelling a rough area the 2620 FEL bit right into the ground and scooped up a bunch of earth. The BX couldn't have bit up that much soil if i'd ben trying to do it.
When sitting on and operating the 2620 I feel like I'm sitting on an elephant. A pile of manure I was stirring with the old BX which took 6 or more flips with the BX loader could be flipped with 3 tries with the 2620. Frankly I find the 2620 to be awkward to manouver compared with my nimble little 1800. Also I find it more of an effort to mount and dismount. Fuel consumption is much higher with the 2620. The garage seems smaller now as well
What's wrong with it?Can anyone tell me how to edit my above post. I really need to re-read my posts carefullly before I push the post button. Sorry!

Hey Charlton,
Have you used the 4 ft boxblade behind the bigger tractor yet? Just wondering how that works not covering the tire tracks.
