Looking good. Going to be the most paintful wait for me.

Why don稚 you care for the digital cluster?

Just prefer old analog style?

View attachment 536332 It's here! :drink:

Now some first impressions.

Dang!!! That one piece hood is heavy....compared to the B2620. Dang!! It is a long step down to the ground away from the MMM, since the B2650 sits higher than the B2620....I'm only 5'3"...short legged old man....:rolleyes:

Cheers,
Mike

I agree about the hood and I also wish the prop held it a little more upright.

When I have the mmm on I use it as the first step.

I had a BX(2009) with a digital dash and had to turn the ignition on to read it when parked.....i.e. go get the key. And the analog dials were easy to read while in operation and in different light conditions. Oh well.

At 145 lbs I guess I could step on the MMM deck when dismounting....without doing any damage. That 'ud be better than breaking a leg.

And BTW, that oil dip stick sure is hard to get at, especially with the FEL attached......B2620 was out in the open .... easy to reach. Well, I never traded the B2620, so .......maybe I'll appreciate it even more now. :confused2::confused3:

Cheers,
Mike

Have I mentioned how totally super awesome the 3 point position control is compared to the super lame control on my BX25D. That alone is a game changer.

LARRY...!!!! STOP teasing us, we BX guys will be running to the dealer to get one like yours, now just stop it will ya....lol.
Thats awesome, i`m very happy for you with your new tractor... i wish i had bought a B series now, instead of the BX, but its all good, maybe next time.

Yeah... that was a low blow.
I didn't realize how horrible not having position control is until you work with a machine that does have it. The ability to finely control what is behind you is awesome beyond anything you could have guessed. I would never buy a tractor without position control now that I've experienced what it does.

I'll bet that RC is angling to get a free Kubota hat from his dealer.:D

Also, ran to the local Walmart for some Power Service winter additive and saw that the shelf is wiped out of the 911.... They have the summer and the winter mix, but they are cleaned out of the emergency...

Why not toss in the winter blend and go home? Are you just being prepared? BTW, I've been running diesels for only 20 years, so I'm only a novice compared to some here, but I've had PS freeze up in me. Went to Howes, and had not one issue. Only time to use 911 is if you gel, and my little BX (maybe us tinker toy tractor guys shouldn't respond to these ton of testosterone tractor posts) has froze up just because of the asinine lawnmower fuel filters Kubota uses. You should be fine on yours.
