Tom, I have a few things to add
<snip>

Foldable ROPS. got it on the B7800 mostly for the mid PTO and because right now I need it to get it into the garage. The new Barn door will make it a moot question. From what I understand the biggest problem with foldable ROPS is remembering if it is up or down PRIOR to entering the garage /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

have fun

Mike:

What does the foldable ROPS and the mid-PTO have in common? I don't see the link. I have the (optional I think) mid-PTO and the foldable ROPS, but I don't see the connection.

Yeah, I just noticed I wrote that wrong.

Actually, the link (I Think) is only with the B7800. For some reason the Mid PTO is standard with the folding ROPS model B7800 and optional with the Fixed ROPS. Most dealers I have seen just carry the folding ROPS with Mid PTO model B7800 on the lot. I guess that is what most people end up wanting. I didn't really care about the Mid PTO but I did want the folding ROPS. I don't even have any idea what, if any, cost difference there is between the two models.

So, Are you going to have yours this weekend? Last I heard for me the guy is still waiting for some of the implements and apparently no amount of harassing calls from me will speed up the truck /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif. Never mind don't tell me if you are going to have yours it will just upset me. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

OK, tell me /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Another happy B7610 owner. I bought mine 6 weeks ago and I am totally pleased. I think you will be too.

I also have a Sears garden tractor. I keep it for mowing. I don't have enough grass to justify a Mid Mount Mower for the Kubota. The loader and 3 point hitch is what I needed the Kubota for.

Enjoy your tractor.

Okay I won't tell you that it's being delivered tomorrow between 2-4 p.m. Only $35 delivery to bring it the 50 miles to my house. I could not do it for that much..... And I'm getting the exact unit that my wife and I test drove around the lot. Yes, we're happy. Now I'm trying to convince my wife that a backhoe for my birthday is a good idea...

I'll be digging the moat around my yard by the weekend!

Tom, implement ****

So, my delivery distance is about 40 to 50 miles. My delivery is free. Yours is costing you 35 dollars. Yours comes tomorrow. Mine comes sometime this week or next. Can you even imagine how fast I would write a 35 dollar check right now? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Enjoy it. And, good luck on the BH for a B-day or Fathers day or any other present. I have been informed that if I ask for anything for any occassion for the next decade I will be taking my life in my hands /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif Which of course begs the question, is a landscape rake a good Birthday present for my wife? Or better yet, can I put a Tiller on the baby registry? Now I'm thinking /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
