How is the BX1500\'s Performance?

How is the front end loader on the BX1500? Does it feel like it wants to tip ? Also, do the BX series tractors get stuck due to the low ground clearance and the front axle clearance? Any other details regarding this tractor would be most appreciated.

Don't know about the bx1500 fel but most machines out there require some rear ballast to be stable when using the fel for more than light materials. Ground clearance hasn't been a problem for me at this point, but I'm not running it on uncleared land. As far as getting it stuck; just about impossible to do unless you wallow it in mud, or get it jacked off the ground. I dug out an old drainage ditch and was pushing mud with the front axle as I moved around and still couldn't get it stuck. Note that I have bars instead of turfs on this unit, and turfs will probably load up a bit.
The bx2200 (I have no experience on the 1500) is a pretty solid and stable machine.
Hope this helps.

With Bar tires you'd really have to be in to the stuff to get it stuck. It has a diff lock and 4wd. You could probably do it in the oke penokeee but not on my land or my neighbors woods.
