My new toy

[andyj812]

I know this doesn't really fit this forum and is Japanese but wanted to share pictures of my new (to me) Kubota BX2200. I traded in my old Kubota b6200 for it. This tractor is smaller but has more horsepower than my old 6200 and I now have a front end loader to play with too.

This is my old b6200 I traded in

Way cool. I like big toys.

I have sold a few of those used that people traded in to us for a new Massey Ferguson GC series. Now that you have a front end loader, you will never want to be without one! ;)
Congrats!

I am dreaming of a loader tractor someday. Would make things much easier in the DumpsterTech Labs. Just not in the current budget.

I'd love a FEL. I'd even be happy with a blade on a smaller tractor.

Thanks for the pics!

Very cool. How is your Sport Trac doing?

Thanks everybody for all the nice comments, I've put 13 hours on in so far. I cut grass with it but spent more time skimming dirt out of the woods to feel in holes around the pond then I did cutting grass. Then I cleared all the weeds from the driveway. It's a lot of fun to play with.

thanks, The sport trac is my wife's. (we have way to many cars) Its a 2004 she bought new but it mostly sits now do to gas mileage. It has around 150 miles on it, I replaced a leaking water pump on it last year an now it loses antifreeze somewhere. Its not in the oil and no oil in the antifreeze not on the floor board either. No obvious leaks. sometimes you can drive it for days and antifreeze stays full and sometimes you can feel it up and the next day its low again. Its a mystery but I will show up sooner or later.

Yep I had a 2005 Trac that overall I loved but mine came down with the infamous timing chain rattle they're known for at about 125,000 miles. I had to trade it in before it imploded on me. My other option was $3,000.00 to pull the engine and replace 3 timing chains that are in the engine.

as a John Deere tech I have to sneer and say something to derate your new tractor.... but as a china rider, good deal, and hope you get many happy hrs with that (obviously the wrong color hehehe) tractor!!!!

Red is the correct choice.

[andyj812]

Red is the correct choice.


But iit is widely believed on this forum that orange is the fastest color lol
