L3540 Kubota
L3540HSTC
Model Year: 2009

I love the cab, it came in real handy this year plowing snow, it was great. the front end loader is real strong. the front and rear light on the cab are great, headlights are useless when loader is on tractor. Really do wish the differential lock worked better, if you press down hard with your foot, you lift your rear off the seat high enough to trip the switch in the seat and shut down tractor. everything else is great. :) cruise control is nice when brushogging the fields.

Pros: cab, loader, lights, radio, ac, heat
Cons: differential lock

Loving the L3540
Model Year: 0

I'm new to Kubota, have been and still own "Green", at time of purchase the Kubota rebate that was offered was too good to pass up. I wanted a cab, and it has not disappointed. Overall, I could not be happier with the L3540.

Pros: I like the loader remotes, the loader is excellent, overall, very good.
Cons: The cab is not as air-tight as a JD, not a big deal though.

L3540 Kubota
Great tractor at great price
Model Year: 2010

This is My second Kubota I have had. The first one I had for 10 years and all I ever did to it was change the oil and put fuel in it. I looked at Massey but for what I got I would have had to pay $6000 more.

Pros: Everything
Cons: Dont get to use it enough

L3540 Kubota
First Kobota
Model Year: 2010

This is my first Orange tractor, had NH TC25 for 10 years but wanted something bigger. Kubota had the most features for the money. 3 stars for reliability cause I only have 47 hours on it currently. The only dislike was the Auto Throttle Advance. It made the tractor RPM's to high for mt liking, but found a post here [make the auto cable longer]to adjust it down much better. Especially for break-in.

Pros: Loader, Comfort, and Power
Cons: Auto Throttle Advance

L3540 Kubota
Kubota Grand L3540 is really grand
Model Year: 2007

Have had the tractor for 2 1/2 years now and love it. Rides, works and handles great. I do a variety of things with it. Grading, excavating, raking, snow blowing, tilling, seeding, fertilizing, plowing, loader work, PH digging, trenching (narrow bh bucket), 3pt pallet fork moving for 1 ton loads of wood pellets and bio bricks. Overall I have not had any issues or qualms. I replaced a L2800 which was great but got such a great deal on this tractor on trade from White's Farm Supply in New York I couldn't pass it up. I owned a BX22 before that. I am partial to orange but do not have any aversion to any of the other manufacturers.

Pros: Strong, well built, comfortable, reliable
Cons: have not found one yet

Kubota Grand L3540 is really grand
Model Year: 2007

Kubota L3540 HST plus, w/ BH90,LA723 FEL, M-PTO, draft control, rear remote, QA bucket, R4's. Have had the tractor now for 2 1/2 years using it for trenching, plowing, 3pt snow blowing, grading, raking, tilling, fertilizing/seeding, 3pt pallet fork moving of wood pelts and bio bricks, PH digging, moving round bails and misc loader work. I have yet to have any issues or problems. Built like a tank yet rides like a Cadillac and operates like a dream. The HST plus is a joy. Previously owned a L2800 for 3 years prior and a BX22 for 4 years prior to that. Bought this tractor from White's Farm Supply in Central New York state because everyone else around me was literally from 5,000 to 10,000 more in difference on my trade. I try to keep business local, but not if they are asking you to bend over.

Pros: Ease of operaion, ride and bulid
Cons: Let you know when I find one

L3540 Kubota
Quality in a Small Package
Model Year: 2010

L3540 HST with cab and loader. Very good quality. I didn't need all the bells and whistles but the machine is put together very well. The loader operates smoothly. I have several pieces of construction equipment and a John Deere 5603, I find the little Kubota a pleasure to use. Glad I got the cab, it was a struggle to spend the extra cash, but it is so nice not to have to breath the dirt and dust while mowing. I would come home when it was 100 degrees outside and go mow... I don't think I would be doing that without a cab. I have had it about 18 months with no problems.

Pros: Quality.
Cons: None.
