1996 Kubota L3600 - Good Deal or Watch Out?

Looks okay to me for a tractor of that vintage. I would never ever again own a tractor without a quick attach bucket, I would pass on that particular model for the fixed attach bucket alone.

Neither would I frankly but then all my buckets and stuff are set up with a SSQA plate.

Pretty easy to add one one, just cost some bucks.

I think you can get a newer tractor with less hours for those $$. What part of KY are you in?

A newer KUBOTA.... "with less hours for those $"?
Probably... not!

But there are a LOT of equally capable tractors out there other than Kubota. This one is 24 years old. Sounds high from here. Sitting can be as hard or harder on equipment than actually using it-providing that unit it maintained and not abused.

Very hard to find a good deal on a used tractor where I live. Farmland is being converted to 5-20 acre home sites and poser lawyers and accountants like yours truly buying CUTS so we can pretend to be rugged individualists on weekends. As a consequence, demand for smaller tractors is high and IMO a new tractor makes more sense for most of us. I just got a new 3025e with 84 months at zero financing. I have enough to do between my kids and my job that I don’t need to be fixing tractors in my spare time.

Just my two cents. Worth less than you paid for it!
