I'll keep an eye out on the deck. I'm hoping they are going to change the mounting. I wonder if the new 2465 Backhoe has changed mountings to accomodate the new deck design. Anyone see the new 2465 backhoe mounted yet. The price is also an issue. At $2500, i'd rather get a residential ZTR. I was hoping the price was more around$ $1500 like Kubota's BX24.
