Lookin at buying a B7500 and looking for help on a couple of points:
What are the Pros and Cons of a ground contact mower deck versus a suspended one?
Apparently the tractor has a dynometer instead of a alternator. The alternator is a upgrade. At what point is this worth it? The only extra electrical load would be a small pump on a sprayer, which has worked OK on my old JD110 with a dynometer.
Thanks for any help
Jim

I have only used a suspended deck on a lawntractor. I prefer the contact mower as it seems to cause less scalping. Also on the suspended deck I used, the parts suspending it were subject to a lot of wear and tear which caused the cut to be off but I imagine that Kubota has a much stronger setup. I would go with the larger ground contact deck just to get more width outside your tires which helps when mowing around stuff.
As far as the dynamo, I don't think you would need the alternator unless you are adding a cab or a lot of lights. ....
