I had been back an forth on what to buy, it was almost a 36 hp Mahindra but the sales guy was only there limited hours and forgot he saw me three weeks before and he raised the price $1000 and talked over me so that made it easy to buy a Kubota L 3800 with loader and Back Hoe. I got it On Thursday and it is amazing how well it operates and what power it has. I filled in a big ditch that was dug to put in propane line and graded out the whole area. Today I used it to grab 2 cord of wood that was scattered all up and down my 1/4 mile driveway from Tropical storm Irene and a Blizzard last October where I was stuck in for 2 days to clear out and lost power for over a week. It even took out some hangers that were stuck in other trees that had bothered me. There are plenty of things to do with it like open up to have a yard and make an area for a pig pen. I ordered a box scraper for it and I think I will get some clamp on forks for moving fire wood. For some reason I had always thought about buying a Kubota but Mahindra had a 5 year warranty that was tempting but when my wife said she had always thought of Kubota that sealed it. The delivery guy was great and explained everything. I plan to do all the maintenance on it myself but it is good to have a dealer who offers free pick up and delivery. Once again customer service that is there 6 day week is a big plus.
