I bought a BX1500 in December and am now moving to a new lot that is mostly wooded. I don't need the MMM anymore. It's never been used.

Is there any value to it? (considering it's a 48" that only fits the last generation BX series - and at that width, really only the BX1500).

Or should I keep it to improve the trade value of the whole tractor some day?

What I really want now is a 3-pt hitch chipper...

Personally, I'd hang it on the wall and forget about it until you go to sell the unit. Given its size, mowing is an "expected" use for the unit and you may have a hard time selling it (or get a lower price than you want) if they have to dig around for a used deck. It'd be worth much more later if you keep the mower deck with the tractor.

I'd try and put a current value on it then make a decision. Maybe a dealer will give you something in trade, like another implement.

Good Luck,
Rob
