Read articles →A side-by-side walkaround of two used BX23-series Kubotas, the BX2380 with loader and mower deck versus the BX23S with backhoe, pointing out what's standard versus optional (skid-steer quick attach, drive-over deck, third function). Covers loader quick-attach operation, backhoe attachment/detachment, hood access, and tire choices, then closes with actual asking prices on both units. Most useful for buyers sorting out trim differences before shopping used.
Good Works Tractors is a dealership-style channel that sells tractor attachments and used equipment, so the walkaround has a sales orientation and closes with inventory pricing from their own lot.
No, the skid steer quick attach is not standard. A pin-down bucket is standard, and the quick attach upgrade costs about 500 dollars more but adds versatility for pallet forks, snow pushers, and grapples.
No, Kubota does not have a standard drive-over system on this series. You have to pull the deck out from the side, though there is an optional easy-over drive-over deck available.
You pull a lever out and rotate it down, then push it back in, and pull out a middle piece to attach or detach. You still have to lower the backhoe as usual, but it avoids dealing with traditional pins.
The 2017 BX23S with 185 hours, loaded tires, bolt-on cutting edge, skid steer quick attach, and mechanical thumb sold for $19,990 plus tax. The 2017 BX2380 with about 60 hours sold for $15,500.
