Bought my new B3030

[CarJockey]

I've read all about it, tried to buy used, stepped up to new. B3030 with loader, and 5 ft land pride. Brought it home proud as a peacock, they even gave me a new hat! First I moved some stone, smashed a gutter on the house, irritated wifey. Moved some dirt, then went mowing. Drove smack into a swale that I knew was there 10 yrs ago, buried to the axles. Had to fire up old Case backhoe to lift out of mud. Made the little lady drive backhoe to pull me out, she's never sat on it before. Now really mad.... oh, did I mention it was raining at the time? Boy after cleanup and dinner out with flowers, I find that I really love that machine, smooth powerfull and quiet. Hope wife stays around as long as my Kubota.

congratulations on a great tractor! I bought mine at the end of July and logged over 40 hours mostly mowing. Today I leveled a ditch bank and moved the top soil to area where we recently demolished a feed mill, really just getting hang of it. The 3030 size is perfect for my needs, however I wish it had a little more weight. Rear tires are filled and I have a 60" landscraper on the 3 point. The most important lesson I learned today is to let the machine do the work and not push it, the 3030 is very capable, with enough seat time I may be able enough to compliment it. I also have 72"MMM and RB 72 and 403 loader. Better luck in the future with the mud and the wife!

That's a funny story. I hate when that sort of thing happens with a new toy.

Sorry to hear about the gutters. I took out the weather stripping on the top of the garage door the first week I had my tractor by forgetting to lower the rops.
