Well, I've almost gotten up enough courage to buy a Kubota L3830 w/FEL (heavyduty bucket with teeth), 4wd, R4 tires, and w/GST transmission ($21,000). I'm just having a difficult time calling the dealer /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
I have to have a tractor, but do I need this much of one? ...yes....I think so /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif (See my previous post, tractor for 62 acres) I've always loved heavy equipment and now I can have some, but should I do it? It makes things pretty tight for a while, but it will get better. I guess the thought of going in debt for my land and then adding a tractor on top of that, not to mention all of my toys now.... /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif But I've wanted one of my own since I sat on my grandpa's lap on his tractor.
I keep looking for used, but haven't found anything. I have mowed yards and cut wood on the side for 12 years now. I always find a way to use my equipment to make me some money. I guess having a real tractor wouldn't be any different. I can find a way to make some extra money with it too. An L3830 probably wouldn't be too much.
But what happens if I don't need that much. How will the resale be?
Ok, starting to babble. Just looking for some encouragement or someone to bring me back to reality.
