Scratch that BX24...I'm getting a BX25

[txkevin]

Changes from BX24 to BX25:
Hard reverse stop corrected
Hood and fenders changed from plastic to metal
3 pt hitch is now an extra cost option
Hydraulic pump will now move loader at idle (Slowly)


BH, Loader, engine, drivetrain remain the same.

Any I've missed?

Just that the price went up along with the changes. Seems to be about $1000 - $1500 more w/ 3pt hitch difference between the 24 and 25.

All of the above problems did not exist on the BX22/23.

Ha, guess that's why they introduced the BX24, so they could add some bugs which could then be remedied (at a higher cost) in the BX25.

Does the BX25 come with that wicked-cool BX2660 seat? That sucker is just 1 inch short of a Barcalounger.

No. Same seat as the BX24

Guess I'll know exactly what I've got soon, as it's being delivered within the next couple hours.

Thought I'd videotape the unloading and operating run through, if the sales guy is cool with that. Whatever he explains to me, chances are I'll forget half of it by tomorrow.

Its really pretty simple to pick up. Just read the operator manual though. Things like stopping before you engage the differential lock are useful to know.

Yes, the transmission is supposed to make that whine sound.

Check your front axle fluid in about 15 hrs as it seems to settle and end up low. I would check all fluids before first use but they should be topped off by the dealer.

Well, no version is perfect....

The BX 23 seems to have had a few issues that I came across on a very quick search....
- Fender issue
-HST pedal sticky

Improvements with the BX24 were....
Curved FEL and BH angle of relief
More BH legroom
Protected Hoses inside the boom
cruise control
higher 3 pt hitch lift.

Thats what I came across on a quick search...

What fender issue was there with the BX23?

They were all standard features of the BX24
