The wife and I plan to retire in 2020 and I was going to buy a new Kubota then but with the economic uncertainties of tariffs and the possibility of increasing inflation, I took advantage of Kubota's 0% financing and bought my tractor two years early.
Having never owned a tractor before, I plan to stay with OEM filters and fluids at least through the warranty period. The tractor was delivered to our Vermont cabin just a few days before I left but I was able to put 5 hours on it and it sure is fun. It is the B2650 model with hydro trans and I got the FEL but I held off on the front snowblower for now.
With 15 heavily wooded acres and a quarter mile of unplowed road that I am responsible for, I am sure that it will come in handy. My first planned upgrade is a Piranha tooth bar.
The first scheduled fluid change is at 50 hours and I will probably hit that next summer. And yes, I lowered the ROPS bar before I backed into the garage.
