    Well, I'm about to embark on a tough job. I live atop a mountain in Alabama, and our local Cable provider will only provide cable service (High speed internet) if we pay for it because we are so far up the mountain, so I'm paying about $1800 for the underground cable AND I have to dig the trench...

    L3200/3800: here's the KEY to an annoying problem....

    Well somebody at Kubota should be ashamed. The itty-bitty depth preset knob for the 3-pt. lever on the L3200/3800 is, to put it gently, a JOKE. They might as well have left it off as it's not usable without a pair of pliers. No, I do NOT have weak hands; quite the opposite. I removed the tiny...

    L3200 vs Boomer 30: features and details, other comments?

    My L2800 loader and hoe onto a new L3200?

    That's the question. Does anyone know if the 463 loader and sub frame-mounted backhoe from my L2800 will bolt onto a new L3200 or L3800? I want HST and a live PTO for easier lawn mowing and dirt work. Kubota's 0%/60 is attractive and this seems like a good time to make a change.
