Default Re: Kubota dealer doesn\'t carry Kubota UDT!

Mike - Re: your questions, yes I did buy from a Kubota competitor and saved $1500 on the entire deal (including a FEL).
On the transmission fluid, he was not using a synthetic transmission fluid as specified by Kubota for the 2200 (Super UDT). I questioned him directly on the low temp performance of this and he said he had no problems with all the units he has sold.
Actually, I bought from the other dealer based upon his stellar reputation and the price he offered me.
Also to answer another poster's comment, my BX2200 was unpacked from a wooden crate and had to be assembled and oil and transmission fluid added. Don't know what the procedure is now but that's how it was done in the Fall of 2001.
