MT125 vs BX23S

[rider7767]

I see some of the bx23s with grapples. And the owners love it. Subcompact maneuver way better and go through gates easier.

To me if the specs for the mt125 scut are better than the bx23s it should handdle it with no problems. I would think.

I think it would handle it better than the BX23S. I also don't think Kubota would not warranty a loader that has been pushed beyond its advertised specs.

Kubota owns land pride now, they make a grapplers, 3rd function etc. for the bx23s. the bx23s comes stock with the quick disconnect. It should not void anything in my opinion the epuipment picks it up or not no matter what attachments you use with in logical common sense. Forks are more detrimental and it's common practice.

Again this is info I'm finding out as I go, to help with my decision and future readers with theirs.

At this point the only way I buy the LS is if I can get your great deal of an attachment worth over 2k in value or 2k off. Other wise the local Kubota said they would drop their price to 17,500 no mower deck but has quick disconnect stock. That's only a difference of 1,600 from my local LS Atlanta dealers who only offer it at 15,900 no MMM.

I'm going to buy one of the two by end of this month.

Thank you guy's for all the info and help in my decision.

Now if can get such a good deal like you. I may be willing to hide my grapple when MTC is due. :thumbsup:

But local Atlanta LS dealers are not budging on price, it looks like I'm going to have to buy out of state maybe by you if its even possible.

PM sent.

I ended up buying a used LS XJ2025h TLB 240hrs with many extras example a factory quick disconnect, a grapple, 3rd function hydraulics, pallet forks, box blade, tooth bar, brush bar, backhoe thumb and backhoe scraper bucket. all for a fair price of 14.5 k

Sounds like you did good. Enjoy.

I would have taken that deal! Get some pictures to share here when you take possession.

I just purchased the MT125 after an extensive search and look at all the other tractor dealers in my area. The bottom line for me were the spec's and price. I have two friends that have the BX23 Kabota's and they absolutely love them. Both have had no trouble with them either. So I was getting a lot of pressure. But I found a LS dealer that was $3500 less then the cash price of the Kabota locally and they would ship & deliver the tractor to my front gate I about fell out of my chair. The price of the LS machine is extremely attractive but so are the spec's. I'm thinking that if you don't abuse the machines, maintain then well they all should last a lifetime. I have a 18 year old JD Sabre Mower that I push snow with and cut my lawn in the summer. This machine is always moving and I have had almost no trouble with it. But I maintain it like new. I won't put chains on it as I don't want to load the transmission that much. When the tires spin I look at it like a fuse. I'll treat this LS tractor the same and I know it will outlast me.
Just my two cents worth. :thumbsup:

I just paid $17k from Bruno's Tractor. By far the best price I could get.

That is a good price especially with the MMM.
