Tractor
Kubota L3700SU, TYM 4820CH
I love Kubota, but damn!
$30K for economy L series with 25hp???
Kubota is pricing themselves out of the market.

I just picked this BRAND NEW, 48hp, 7,000lbs with loader and ballast CAB tractor, with 2,700lbs loader lift capacity and 6 year warranty for $29,500!

Not as much as you would think. It's not like everyone gets 0% and it is like any other marketing cost. They choose that way to market. For those who qualify, it is a good deal. They price high because people pay it. Valid, or not, JD and Kubota have a reputation. That yields sales that are not necessarily rational, but it works for them. Both big brands used to be discount brands...in JDs case it was a lot longer in the past. Once people catch on that most brands are good, sales will expand for them. Bigger sales yield larger networks and one or more of the Korean brands will be among the leaders.

I would not run away from a tym, but it is a consumer range tractor Imo. As far as people paying msrp, sure, probably happens and thats on them. I always get a deep discount on my kubotas.
Msrp on my u48-5 was like $87k, i paid $70500.

Unsure what consumer range means?

Nice tractor! How big of a garage door does it take?

I guess since Kubota uses orange paint on their construction and ag stuff, the assumption is that the equipment is the same?

This is going to one of my businesses for snow removal, I had it delivered at home, so I can run it thru its paces and make sure everything is tight.
