After a lot (A LOT) of research, including quotes after quotes for different models and configs (owe my salesman a beer or two for sure), I made the decision to stick with my original gut and purchase a 2025r. I’m super stoked and these next 2 weeks are going to kill me for sure!
Here’s my load out...
2025r
H120 loader and bucket
60” MMM
Mulching kit
iMatch
Ballast box
R3 Versa Turf tires (loaded)
Mechanical hydraulic diverter valve
HLA snow pusher outfitted with back drag and rubber edges
Also have 2” Bro-Tech rear spacers on the way
Can’t wait to play in the snow with this thing this winter!

SWEET! You won't regret going with the 2-series. I couldn't swing the price for a new generation, but found a really nice older gen 2520 just a short distance away with what I needed most, mower and loader. I was walking on eggs for about two weeks, hoping I could get my money together and swing the deal before it got sold to somebody else.
It is just the right size, IMO (2-series). I moved up from an X7, felt the move to a 1-series wasn't enough of a change. Sure looks a bunch bigger when parked next to my 318 in the shed, but it still fits in some tight places in the yard with no problems. Give us a first week's use report when you get it. I guarantee it'll take you that long to get off of it once you get it home.

Nice! I missed my ticket a few months back on a beautifully used 2008 2720 with FEL and 72” deck and low hours. I was still in my research stages and not ready to finance right then still shuffling some other payoffs. Later learned how much of a gem they are, but I’m pretty stoked to have had the ability to build this one to my own specs.
She’s gets delivered tomorrow! Only missing the auto-throttle and mower deck but it will get picked back up to have those installed later. This way I get it for the snow storm this week.
here’s a pic... 2” rear spacers being installed today.
Can't wait to hear how that snow pusher does in the snow.
