Still Pretty Darn Pleased with My Tractor
Model Year: 2013
We purchased a new Kubota L-3200 with FEL a couple of months ago. I used the loader and box scraper to reshape a portion of the property near the house, remove a pile of old construction rubble from the previous owner and improve the acces to the fenced area. I then used it to plant about a 1/2 acre test plot and improve a 1/4 mile of access road on our pastures. I used the box scraper and a little grunt to level an area and remove a pile of concrete rubble that was dumped there by the previous owner. The tractor worked like a champ, in wind and rain and when darkness fell the two optional work lights made loading it on the trailer for the trip home a breeze. The 3-point hydraulics are a little jerky, it take a little getting used too. Six more horsepower were $1800 more dollars, we bought implements instead. It is a nice sized tractor, uses 6 foot attachments and has plenty of torque. We bought work lights from the dealer and he "threw in" wheel spacers and hooks for the bucket. I am 6'2" and it is a good fit, the flat floor has room for your feet. I am pleased.
Pros: Everything works great, it is well built and has a great engine, sips fuel.
Cons: Two bolts, a washer and three nuts fell out onto the trailer and I have no idea where they came from.
