Seems high to me. A year ago I was quoted $33,300 for a new ROPS 3560 with 805 loader. What does the cab add $8000? So that would put a new one at around $41,000. Not sure what a used snow blower and 3 remotes is worth. But it seems their asking price is awful close to new price. I would think a new one with 0% financing may actually be cheaper.

My cabbed l4060 was valued at the mid 30s by the dealer a year ago. A blower & a backhoe are $8k each. Not clear if a hoe was part of the deal. My l4060 is a little short on hp for serious production work, but does me fine for a side gig. At my Colorado altitude I probably have less hp than a 3560 at sea level.

And what is kubota using for bucket quick connection system? Looking on Google, I'll I see is the commonly used system. SSA?

SSQA Fyi. Kubota uses a 2 camlock attachmet that will engage with any (not Euro style) quick attach. While I prefer the more rubust ATI attachment fixture, I happen to have them both, the OEM Kubota unit on one tractor and the ATI on the other.

Arly I went on Kubota and did a “build” on that tractor, it was about $63,000. The snow blower alone is about $7k. That’s considered a Grand L and would be a nice rig.

Edit, if it has a backhoe I didn’t do that on Kubota’s build, that would add several thousand more.

How many hours Arly, I think that got left out in your OP. I went on Tractorhouse and looked at several. Unless it has a lot of hours that might be a great deal.

Kubota operator's, what quick connect system does there loader buckets use???
If you bother to read back a couple posts, I told you. Again... Kubota uses their proprietary 2 pin camlock SSQA disconnect that is compatible with all SSQA attachment plates from anyone except Deere and their 'Euro style; SSQA. I have both the Kubota 2 pin camlock SSQA as well as the ATI 2 pin camlock SSQA and they interchange 100% but I prefer the ATI as it's built stronger. Easy to tell the difference as well as the OEM will be orange and the ATI will be black.

35 horsepower is a little small on a machine of that size, but not so much so it should be a problem. Outside of that, it's a low hour, cab, Grand L, it's a Cadillac of a tractor.

That's a nice machine. My L3700 has about the same HP and has never been short on power. Maybe the hydraulic system could be stronger but if anything is too heavy for it, I use the skidsteer.. 40k and you can use it for 5-6 years and get back most of your money

Oh wow; that's pre-emissions, and damn near brand new!

I have no experience with the L-40, but they don't seem too different from the L3830 I grew up on, and that was one hell of a machine.

Gee whiz, now a L5740 just showed up with cab, blower and more extra accessories for 47K with 700 hours and in the same town.

Looks like it has loader brackets. Does it have a loader with it?

No rear remotes??

Much better tires for all-around use than the turf tires on the other one.

Look under and see if it's leaking hydraulic oil at the weep hole in the middle of the frame.

Wonder where the grill guard is? Would be nice if they have it.

Needs rear remotes.

I’m not sure that it’s a great price, but then I get surprised every time I buy anything lately.

I don’t have one, but the L3560 is probably the nicest tractor in the 35hp range. The turf tires wouldn’t be my choice, otherwise that’s a sweet machine.
