I found a Kubota l3350 with backhoe and loader. The price is right and it seems to fit the bill for what I need. Any thing I should know before pulling the trigger on this?

That generation of Kubota is where they made a name for themselves in my opinion.

I'm always looking for a good deal on a machine that can increase my productivity.... Besides, buying pants can be expensive!

Can the cab come off that thing TSO? Any chance you got a straight shift you can swap in place of that hst? Shoot me a pm with a price and we will see how strong my convictions are. I'm not real good at playing the waiting game once I've decided its time to buy something. Unfortunately my wallet cant back that attitude as much as I would like

Sorry, I missed your post where you said you decided on gear over HST ... Just found it on Pg 2. Best of luck in your search

Here is my prediction...I might be wrong but oh well:)
When ALL of the NOS tier 3 machines are sold, guys with nice late model tier 3 interim tier 4 machines like TSOs and mine are going to be able to name their price, and get at least what we paid for them if not more:stirthepot:

I believe that the smart guys that did not scramble at the last minute will pay the price to avoid tier 4 final.

I have no intention of selling mine, but if I had to buy now I would pay the price to avoid tier 4 final

I would have to agree with you but I wouldnt do that. I understand the logic but for me i just wont do it. I think thats where my stubborness come into play. I wont overpay for a used machine. For me its all about having equity in something you have. I also dont think its a good idea play off the fear of not wanting tier 4. But people will allow that to play a major role in their decision making. Its definetly a good point infact i would bring it up if I was the seller to try to get a little more for a machine.
