I am on the verge of ordering my B7500HST with FEL and post hole digger. I was just discussing prices with my local dealer. When I asked him about the LA302 FEL, he said he was "pretty sure" it had been discontinued for the B7500 and that he had sold all of his B7500's in recent memory with the LA272 FEL. Does anyone know for a fact that the LA302 FEL is still available for the B7500???
I just took delivery this past Sat on a new B7500 with the FEL 302. your dealer must not have any in stock. This may be a good reason to look elsewhere.
Someone also posted recently about getting a B7500 with the LA352 loader. I have no idea about how well/poorly this might work, but it's worth looking into. FWIW, the B7500 and B2410 have "almost" the same frame.
