Buying Advice Time to look at replacing my b2620 with fel and bh

628pm · May 10, 2014

Might sell some property that I used the b2620 on (fel, bh, mmm), looking at going back to a BX model. Has anyone used the BX2670? I have a ZD326 to mow grass with, but it is nice to have something to pick up stuff for me. If I sell the property I won't need a backhoe taking up space in my shed, B2620 has been great but it isn't the tractor for me at home. Don't want to just sell the B2620 without replacing it at the same time, someone might not want to replace it later on.

If I go to a BX it will probably have the FEL, MMM, quick attach, and pallet forks (don't know how much I would use them, but I always wanted them). I have noticed they advertise a (-1) on the 70's, it is my understanding that is an upgraded model of the 70 series.

Any info on those models would be appreciated.

Thanks

I just bought a BX2670 with FEL and 3 LandPride attachments (box scraper, grading scraper and a reverse tine rotation tiller). I have used all the attachments and am very impressed! We have a lot of trees on our 4 acres out here, so the BX size is perfect for maneuvering in tight spots. I have no shortage of power for tilling and doing some heavy dirt and gravel work with the box scraper. The grading scraper works like a dream on our gravel driveway and does a way better job than the box scraper. The loader seems a little weak compared to my old B2400 but it I do think it is sized correctly for this size tractor. I'm not sure I would have noticed much difference had I gone with the BX2370 but I ultimately decided it was worth a little extra now for horsepower I may need on down the road (PTO chipper for example).

How does it mow. My wife doesn't like the ZD326P and she likes to mow. The b2620 in my opinion was made to mow a lawn but my old bx 2200 was great.

I didn't get the MMM - not enough lawn at our place to make good use of it. I have read elsewhere on these forums that the MMM on the BX does a really nice job but others will have to speak to that.
