New 2620 but not green

[n8586m]

I bought a new 2620 but it is orange. I had decided to buy a JD 2320 until I read about the new Kubota 2x20 series. I went to the local dealer, checked out the specs, looked it over and made the deal. I got the tractor, loader and 54" MMM for less than the cost of the JD2320. I drove it today and it will be delivered Monday. First project is removing about 25 yard of sand, removing 12 railroad ties, spreading 25 yards of top soil and laying sod. Looks like it is going to be a very nice tractor.

why did you chose the 2620 over the 2920 and 60" mower? What did you get your setup for?

The 54" mower because of clearance issues in certain parts of the yard. I actually chose the 2620 over the 2320. At some point I might run out of cash so I have to stop somewhere.

Congrats! My brother in law is buying the same set up with the 60" deck and 2920. I'm curious on the quote you got on the Deere 2320. The quote I got was about $1,200 more than the B2620 and you get the 3 range HST with Kubota. Deere 2320 with loader and 60" deck was $17,023. Kubota 2620 with loader and 60" deck - $15,800.

The prices I got for the JD2320, loader and 54"mmm were $16,900 tax inc from three dealers and $16,400 from a fourth. The K 2620 was $16,400 tax inc with loader, 54" mmm delivered. Tax is 6%. The K 2320 was $1000 less than the K 2620.

Thanks for the prices!....gives me an idea of where I should be looking....
What's the tax rate in Ohio?

What tires did they you/he with the tractors? I haven't seen one with turf tires yet but I am inclined to go with turfs if I order one, even with a Bhoe.
The size of the turfs is not published in the brochure and neither are the AGs that I saw on a 2320.

I got the turf tires as most of the time it will be on the lawn, which I try to maintain at golf course quality. I think the size is 12.5 x 15. You can see the turf in the photos above.

Could I get some price info on the different mower decks for the B2x20 series. I was picking up some seed potatoes, and onion sets today, and swung by my Kubota dealer. He had just gotten a stack of 54", and 60" mmm decks in, but the salesmen were busy so I couldn't get a price.
