doc,

Your dealer added the joystick before you looked at it. From the factory, it is not a factory option but a dealer installed option after the dealer receives the tractor. My point was when pricing, the MF comes with the joystick 100% of the time. The Kubota may or may not depending on if the dealer adds it to it.

Why are MF priced so high compared to Kubota

Who is your dealer? There are several GC2300's in inventory at other dealers across the country. Great tractor!

Should I buy a GC2300 or a BX2230

They are manufactured by Iseki in Japan and have been for over 14 years. They are an excellent tractor.

If you are looking for a sub-compact the GC2310 does out spec the BX22 & BX23. You have more digging depth and lift capacity. The B7510 and B21 would probably be overkill if your needs are met by the 2310. The GC2310 is a great tractor.

The Massey Ferguson 1475 or 1480 backhoes will fit. These are sub-frame mounted which is recommended for compact tractors. One is a 8' and the other is a 9' backhoe.

Compact tractors required the support of a sub-frame when mounting a back hoe. They will break at the transmission housing if you are not careful. It can happen for various reasons. The extended weight of the backhoe swinging from side to side puts a lot of stress on small tractors. Plus the force needed to dig alone is tough on them. By using a subframe the force is absord through the whole tractor.

Looking at the specs again, that is breakout force. That is different than lift capacity to full height. Seems to compare slightly above the BX2200 in lift to full height (470 lbs) versus (460 lbs).

Hey there is a new Massey Ferguson GC2300 sub compact. Just saw it on AGCO's web site. Specs look good, heard it would be available in July. Price is supposed to be attractive as well.
