currently dealing with 2 acres, buying 5 more within 5 years. Want a loader, backhoe, finish mower. Kubota dealer steered me towards B3030 w/L403 FEL and a 3ph hoe that swaps for a 60" mow.
The mower will get used every week for 2 acres (even after expansion), hoe and loader about once a month. and then I'll do yearly rentals of rototiller (2acres) and posthole as needed.
Am I on the right track, or should I look at another model?

If you are considering backhoe work you might want a heavier tractor with a fitted or subframe backhoe. I have a 3K lb tractor with fitted backhoe and it still takes some abuse when pulling stumps, boulders, going through hard clay, shale and rock. ....

It depends on you! I'd recommend the BX24 for the amount of acreage that you have but you don't have the weight or size to do the same work in the same time as the 3030. The BX would be a lower price and if you do like to work with your equipment it would still get done, you would find the lower price would allow you to have all the attachments that you mentioned. ....
