B3200 to L3200

Does it have enough power for you? Loaded lift feel strong?

I'm lovin my L3200. Only had it a couple of weeks now and a lot of that time was rainy and cold, but what little seat time I have had, it beats the heck out of my old B7510. And you're right Jeepfreak, that suspension seat is great! Went by TSC yesterday and bought myself an orange steering wheel knob.

All I have to compare it to is the little B7510 I traded in for it and there is no comparison there. The L wins hands down. In fact, I'm taking it in the morning to get the rear tires loaded for better stability.

Here is another question which is sort of related.
The B3200 has the V1505 engine, the L3200 has the D1503 engine both are the same displacement but the D1503 is a 3 cylinder of course and weighs another 80#. Does anyone know the difference between the 03 series and the 05 series? I am guessing the 03 series is a more robust engine but can anyone comment on this. Kubota is very vague of course.:D

Yep it is, but my question is what is the difference between the 03 and 05 series engines.

When I decided I wanted/needed a tractor, I shopped and bought a tractor in 2 days. No research done on my part except for having the experience of using my father's BX2320. I knew I wanted something at least the size of 2320 or slightly larger. I first looked at MF and just about pulled the trigger on a 1528 (28 hp). In my area I had 3 choices, John Deere, Massey and Kubota. I pretty much ruled Kubota and John Deere out because I figured they would be to exspensive. I remember what my father paid for his BX in 2004 and thought, sheww thats a lot of money for a tractor. Massey was offering 0% for 72 months and I LOVE the way Masseys look.

The next day my father talked me into looking at Kubota. I did and when I walked onto the lot, the B3200's size immeadiatley appealed to me. I thought, "this is the size I need". To my surprise the price was cheaper than the MF1528 and I was getting 4 more horsepower. After having the B3200 for over a year now, my only complaint is I wish it was heavier. I use my tractor for far more duties then my father uses his BX but since I used his I knew the B3200 would suffice for my needs, although I didn't give one thought about weight. I really think an L series such as a L2800 or 3400 would be better for me but the 3200 is getting the job done.
