Can't decide X748 or 2305

[Builder]

Kubota dealer just got me interested in a B2360. 60" deck, loader prepped.
0%/60 months.

i compaired the 2305 and the 2360 also. went with the 2305 because of the forward and reverse pedals.

That would probably be my choice.

Like I said before, all my equipment seems to carry the "swiss army knife" theme to increase versatility & save money.

I think that is my lot in life also

I keep trying to make one tool do seven jobs!

SO true! I dislike Kubota's pedals. Love the Deere hydro pedals.

This is going to be a regrettable decision-I can tell already. I don't want the 2305 because it's being discontinued. I really like the 748's HDAP tires, small size and green paint. I really like the 2360's price/financing and abundant features. The ROPS makes it safer for me, too.

I hate this......:confused2:

I am curious if you have ever used the Kubota pedals for any period of time? We changed from a JD425 to the BX and my wife didn't like it initially. We now have a BX2660 and 2305 and she prefers the Kubota. I can live with either.

Are the HDAP's a Deere exclusive? (I'm 90% sure they are)
The 2360 would be better for me with the HDAP's on it.

Builder,

You can buy the HDAP tires aftermarket. I believe they are Carlisle brand and are often listed as ATV tires by various on-line dealers. Here's a link to Carlisle's selection of HD Field Trax and All Trails, which are similar. Should be able to buy these anywhere Carlisle ATV or tractor tires are sold. Maybe you can get your dealer to order them and get a credit for the Kubota OEM tires. Worth a try if you go with a BX.

The 2305 uses 1/4 inching hitch if that is of importance to you.

TripleR; Could you explain how the 1/4 inching hitch works on the 2305. I have this tractor and can not for the life of me find any reference to this in the owner's manual, nor can I find any mechanism on the tractor which might be for this 1/4 inching valve. In other words, I haven't a clue how to operate this function.
It would be great if you could tell me how to operate this feature.
Thanks.
