Used B2630 or New B2320/B2620?

Reading this comment from Jbbies and wondering about the QA on your B2620. We are leaning toward the purchase of a B2620 and want to get a QA loader. The dealership tells us they can only do that with a 5' bucket that adds about 150 pounds of weight compared to the Kubota bucket it comes with. I started a thread asking about that size bucket, and the first reply suggested a 5' bucket is too big for a B2620. What kind of QA and bucket did you get on your B2620?

Sounds like your dealer is referring to a universal skid steer mount, he is not telling you that on the B2620, the Kubota OEM QA works with the standard 50" bucket size. The Kubota quick attach ( which is really the QA for the B3200/B3300) fits the B2620 and works with the standard 50" FEL bucket for the B2620 or B2920 (and i think the 2320 also) I had one and this has been discussed on the Kubota section before. It seems Kubota and some dealers do not want to make it known that the B2x20 series have this option available.

champagne outlined the rest of the items concerning the Kubota OEM QA.

Thanks for the advice on QA. In the end, we went in on a used L3400 (w/o QA) with our neighbors. Delivery is this week.
