I haven't heard much in the way of numbers so far in this thread. If anyone has purchased or received quotes on diesel machines let's hear about it. I received a quote today on a Kubota 1140 with "up air kit" and plastic roof for 17,191.00. With tax, insurance and other fees it's just shy of 20,000. Is this in the ballpark for what other 1140 owners paid? MSRP on the diesel trans mule is 12,200 and "up air kit" is standard on the Mule. On the Kubota site, glove box and front accessory box are listed as accessories, while they are standard on the Mule. I was initially set on the Mule because I just wasn't seeing how the Kubota could be worth almost 8,000 more, but now I'm reconsidering the Kubota because the dealer seems to be far easier to work with.
