I am considering a TC 30 and also the K grand L 3130 they are both harvest returns and great prices, but the Kubota is 3k more... is it worth it or is the TC 30 enough?! any feedback from owner appreciated, i am getting down to the wire on decisions here. I posted a similiar question in the kubota forum so please dont flame me out.. but i would like to get feedback from both sides of the coin...
I have 2 acres which the majority of is is stables with 3 maybe in the future 4 horses. I am NOT going to be running any PTO implements, except maybe a REMOTE maybe a tiller or a auger. Most of the time i will be using the FEL, a 5' box scraper and a harrow. I live in Reno/Sparks area in Nevada, so is usually pretty dry. I have a ton of rocks i am going to be initailly going to try and rip up with the teeth on the box scraper ( i know i will be losing them as fast as a shark loses teeth) and then filling and leveling with DG and then just maintaining it with the harrow. I dont give a (*&% about the cup holder and other warm and fuzzy items on the 3130, but i do like the extra 1000 lbs of mass and bigger diameter tires for putting the HP to the ground. And the much higher capacity of the loader. BUT HONESTLY would it be worth the extra 3k when the TC - 30 would probably suffice?
Input MUCH appreciated...
