John Deere 2210

The BX2200 has some competition, but not the BX22.

Dave,
Great pics. We were up there today. Had a great time. I loved the Rosencratz Deere display. I was surprised they had a 2210. I thought the mount was a little different vs the BX or GC2300. They both go to the frame as opposed to those 2210 mounts.

I really liked the GC2300. What did you think of it?

Phil,
I like it also.
IMHO, (again) I think the folks in the big blow up tent
at the fair should wake up and smell the coffee.
Gone are the days when the BX was the only show in town.
I think "old Bill" will have to get his pencil out a little more these days! /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

The Mighty BX now has some very serious competition.

My order on the four new sub-compacts.
1) JD 2210
2) GC2300
3) BX
4) Ingersoll

SethO, I was thinking the same thing. If the 2210 doesn't have a backhoe option, how could it compete with the BX22?

Dave,
I think the blow up tent folks may already be aware of the competition. I posted under the "Deerfield Fair" thread in Related Topics. You probably saw they had a BX2200 w/FEL for $11,900. I had been to their dealership in June and they qouted 14.6K for the same set up. So quite an improvement.

Don't know who "ol' Bill" is.

On Saturday i went to a wine harvest fest in Lee, NH. Seated next to me was the owner of the largest Kubota dealer in NH. Very nice and pleasant chap. Complimented him on his new store down here. He seemed really proud of his dealership and the Kubota brand.

I mentioned a VT dealer with super prices. The owner knew of them - Walt's in Barre VT. But said he would never service a unit from them nor Carver's. He brought up Carvers. I was quite surprised at this. That he would not accept money to work on units purchased far a way. I did not pursue this as we were all out at a social gathering.

I have wanted a BX2200 for 4 years but between prices, being ignored at the fair (3x I went to that tent) and the no sale from here/ no service from here attitude Ihave changed my mind and put the GC2300 at the top of my list.

Phil and Dave,

I went to the fair Sun in the AM - it sure was packed!! dave - I took some photos of the 2210 as well - similar to yours too. Here is an older Deere 330 Nice!

All the equipment displays was amazing. I missed last year but gone every yr before that for last 7 years. IT has grown no doubt.

A comment about Ol Bill refers to Bill Mears who used to own MB Tractor - it was sold two years ago to another gentlemen who IMHO is a business man but has brought a different feel to the business - I will leave it at that.

Regarding pricing too, no real deals in the Orange tent $28K for a B21TLB, and others were similar..

I agree the MF series looked good, and will be some competition for the majors very soon..

Nice looking boy, in a couple of years you'll need to buy yourself another tractor so you have one to drive.. Better start saving now as they grow up faster then you think..

Did you get a chance to look under the hood of the J. D 2210 an see if it's reverse flow, is the radiator & fan in back or front???

You took some great looking picture, thanks much...

Leave it up to a couple of die-hard TBNers to post pictures of a new product on the web. before the Company has put out any info. on their product.

Many thanks,have certainly enjoyed the pictures of new sub-compacts...
