@@heathdetweilerRealtor Hi Heath, I really love this tractor, I have had no problems with mine. I live in Texas and the AC keeps the cab nice and cool. If you do purchase this tractor I recommend the front and rear work lights, they are very bright, it’s almost like working in daytime. I also recommend the third function remote for the loader it opens a whole new world of attachments like grapples and such. Another tip. If you want a radio DO NOT have the dealer install it, they will charge you 300.00 or 400.00 for it. I purchased my radio from Messicks online for right at 100.00 and they have a video on how to install it. The cab comes with speakers and an antenna pre-wired. Installation takes 5 minutes. Let me know if you have any questions. Brad Starkes

Great tractor. I can't wait to trade in my L2501 for a L4701... Hopefully it will have some updates in a couple of years...

9:15 the steep trailer ramp is easy to fix with some wood on the bottom of the ramps. what you need to know ( and no-one mentions) about the backhoe being plumbed into the main hydraulic loop is : if you unplug the backhoe when taking it off you need to plug the backhoe hydraulic line back into the return line so you don't blow up your hydraulic pump.

I was really hoping this model would have the option to separate the 3 point from the mower deck lift. Having to pin the deck up to use the 3 point is probably my number one complaint about my B2650HSDC.

Exactly where I am, leaning to the 26 with a factory cab though.

Good afternoon, my question is why wouldn’t Kubota for a LX model cabbed tractor do a 3 split rear window for operation of a backhoe version? That way you can use the single seat instead of using a second seated unit. Plus you can have access to all in cab controls and be able to lift front bucket to push forward while using the backhoe...

They keep coming out with ways to make work a lot easier.

Very nice tractors. Those R14 tires look good! In my experience the R4 tires are not very good in snow. They seem adequate in other uses, except heavy mud. The R1 ag tires are wonderful in mud and fields, and are also good in snow. With chains are good in the woods. For 25 years, I had one 2wd tractor without a loader with R1 tires and was very happy. I added a small 2wd tractor with turf tires and a 60” belly mower and was happier for 10 years. So at 35 years I traded both in on a big new 4wd tractor and loader with R1 ag tires. I also bought a new medium sized 4wd tractor and loader with R4 tires for different uses. I also bought a new commercial zero turn mower and reduced my mowing time by half. Now I can really get some work done, but I am all beat up from working so hard in the past. Make sure you first tractor has a loader and is 4wd.

Even in light mud R4 tires can have issues, especially if there is a slope of some kind. I've had to get a good run up to go up some slightly muddy hills in an R4 equipped TLB that a similar size tractor with AG tires took just fine.

Is cab an add-on option for an open-station model? If so what's cost difference (assuming it's more) to add post-sale?

Can you spec a hydraulic thumb for the backhoe?

I'm very happy with the R14 tires on my 6 week-old LX2610HSDC. I find them to be not bad on turf as long as I don't make really sharp turns. I need them more for their ability to unload packed snow during the winter. They have been used for a couple years in Canada and the response up there has been fantastic. Much better snow and ice tires with aggressive enough tread for my frequent work in the woods. My old BX1860 with turf tires was a spinning, sliding beast blowing snow. I don't mow with my tractor so that might be an area where they'd be too aggressive. LOVE my new LX2610!

Not worse than any other implement in my experience.

I'm confused about your statement at round 4:08 in the video that the MSL option also includes some kind of "hydraulic relief valve" that allows the bucket cylinders to move in/out as the FEL arms move up and down. It's my understanding that a "mechanical self leveling" feature on a FEL is 100% accomplished by changing the location of the bucket cylinder's mounting position on the boom arms. In other words, it’s a geometry thing accomplished with the additional MSL bars.

My trailer is a 20 foot trailer and has a 3 foot self-cleaning dovetail and 2 foot 3 position spring lift “rampage” ramps. The ramps stabilize the rear of the trailer and the load angle is very flat for a full height trailer. I use the trailer regularly in my business and am very grateful that I listened to the salesman about this line of trailers being better than others, especially for ease of use. The cost was only less than 10% more than the usual rough built trailer. I have an old spinal injury and appreciate the easy use of this trailer. The company has good videos on KZread.
