Buying Advice B2920 or B3200

[Verdemont]

Envious.... hardly

Also I do not look at the different forums, I look at Bobcat and "todays posts" I suppose you only look at Kubota. I would say possibly closed minded individual?

Gotta love some of the weird0s on the internet

I will admit that now that I own a Kubota I don't look at the other forums. Why? I have an orange tractor and spend 15-30 minutes a day looking at the two main Kubota sub-forums. Why, unless I was looking to buy a new tractor would I spend any time in another forum?

I also own a bunch of motorcycle and it's very common for someone who owns the Red motorcycle to come to the forum where the Green bike owners are and tell them how much better Red is. Not sure why. I just ignore them as it has no meaning to me.

Most tractors are very well made and will do what you need. Just pick one and use it. I see no value in these "color wars" as it's just a bunch of ding dongs on the internet beating their chests. I might have bought green if my local dealer wasn't such a dick. But I didn't. I don't hang out in the Green forums and tell them how much better Orange is. Why? Life is short.

HotRocks,

What did you end up buying?

HotRocks,

I've gotten my quote from Barlows, B2920HST 4x4, R4 tires, FEL, 60" drive over MMM, 5' bushhog, Kubota standard sunshade, first 50 hour service with fluids and filters etc, $18,250.00. I haven't done much tractor shopping, but I thought this to be very reasonable. One dealer quoted me $16,540.00 for B2920 and FEL only. Your thoughts?

I haven't bought yet, waiting to close on new house.

That is a great price! (from one who is still wishing he had contacted Barlows when he bought his.

That is a great price. You will definatelybe pleased with Barlow's too.

Maybe you would cite some specific examples so that we can all be enlightened.
Statements with no facts are meaningless.

I have stated some specific examples in previous posts.
And they were very valid

I've been working with Brady, he responded promptly to emails, there was no haggling, he asked what I wanted and what I wanted to pay. I told him and he said ok. I told him what I would like to get for my trade in, sent him pictures of my BX2200, he said sounds good to him. Just let him know when I was ready to do the deal. Almost seems to good to be true, and definately to easy.

I learned about them from reading this forum. And I live only a little over an hour away which makes it convenient.

As did I, and while I'm further away, I have roots in Somerset so going there to get it (or having Brady deliver it) would be no problem. In my case I learned about them after I committed locally.

Barlows are great to deal with. So far 13 times plus some implements and parts. Last part I bought from them was free.
We are now into negotiations on hats. I have more of their hats than they do and they are wanting to buy some of them back.
I always have them deliver my machines which is 7 miles to home delivery and 2 miles if they deliver to the rental property.
