Comparison LS vs Mahindra vs Kubota

[Zepaholic]

I looked at the LS G3033 today on my way to work. I also have seen the Mahindra 3016. Is this a good comparison? Which Kubota model should I use as a comparison. Thanks in advance.

I would think the L3200 would be in the ballpark.

Mahindra 3016 seems to fall inbetween Kubota's L3200 and L3800 in horsepower. Whether that is intentional or not, I can only guess.

How is that? The 3016 has 28HP. I think that you are thinking about the 3616 with 36HP.

MtnViewRanch,

L3200DT has 26.7 HP at PTO, L3800DT has 31.5 HP at PTO. The 3016 is closer to the L3200 with 28 HP at PTO, yes.

The Mahindra website list the 3016 as having 28 engine HP.

Where are you seeing 28pto HP? :confused3: The gear model has 23HP @ the pto.

My mistake, I was reading the engine HP. You are correct. 28 horse is at engine/flywheel. 23 Hp at pto.

Kubota has the strongest dealer organization in this country as well as higher resale value.

That's cause you pay more!

I was looking at a 32hp Mahindra, don't remember the model, but very comparable to the Kubota L3200/3800. Turns out the Kubota was less money.
