Roy - you need to check your spelling. that's not a deere on your hat it's a steer

Never said it was a Deere hat...it's a Way cool hat...

Roy, I already sold the Kubota BX, so I guess I'm half way there. The last time I saw sacrifice like that was in Vietnam........ I'm humbled!

Dutch, Thanks for those dimensions! It looks like the snowblower situation wouldn't be so bad. It's interesting that the overall width is so similar since the tires are 1 1/2" different in width. Must be there is a difference in the rim construction. Yes, I see now that the inner distance is 3" different.

When we were shopping, looking at a B7800 or the small JD stuff. What swayed me into the 2520 was I really liked the way the FEL came off and on with JD which was important to me so it's easier to move around our trees. The 2520 has two hyd. pumps the 2320 does not. The price between a B7800 and a 2520 was only different by a thousand bucks too.

vintagemilano.. Did you compare the 2520 to the B 2630 also? Since you ended up with a 2520 obviously you think that the better tractor, but I was just curious. I did play with a 2520, and got a chance to use the loader in a dirt pile, and I did like the machine very much. I like the 7 1/2' backhoe available on the Kubota in that size, and the really nice three point hitch setup on the orange tractor in that price/hp range though. The 2320 has several advantages over the Kubota B7510/B7610 though. Both companies make a very good product! How many hours do you have on yours so far?

I've been staying away from this post pretty much since I expected it to go "Kubota vs. Deere".

Same here... I stumbled in not knowing what to expect, but I must say the Green guys that have posted are rather objective and well-behaved w/no Orange bashing.

that's not a deere on your hat it's a steer

I'm having an Officer and a Gentleman flashback...

All we drove was a 7510 and a 3030. The 7510 just felt too small for what we wanted and for what the price was going to end up. The reason we went for the 2520 was I really like how the loader pops off with the 200cx, both the whole loader and just the bucket. We have close to 50 hours now and has been wonderful. I agree though, they are both fine products, just whatever suits your needs.
