So I went and sat down today... looks like they are going to do about 3k better than what I was given Saturday.
Right about 30k with a new loader before tax.
Thinking I知 going to put a deposit on it.

Called an ls dealer and then stopped by- he was a bit cocky and told me he could beat the new holland price... kept bashing the lack of features on the new holland- his prices were attractive but the fact that he痴 only had the line a few years makes me worried... I think with the new holland I知 buying the well established dealer- and a no nonsense tractor with less things to break.
Should I stop kicking tires? Lol

I muddied the water a bit by going to look at a m7060 5065e and a farmall 70... the Deere痴 price is really attractive at $1500 less than that of the Kubota.
I was having a hard time justifying 6k to go with the Kubota with a 8x8 over the new holland but 4500 more for the Deere with a 12x12 seems good.
I didn稚 get to drive either of those two as the Deere is an hour north of me and I was at another of their dealers an hour south.
Off to read reviews on the two new guys.

I ended up deciding I wanted a backhoe attachment which lead me to a 95 L4350 with power reverser with 650 hours on it. It has a roughly 3 year old woods bh90x on it. Overall the tractor is in great shape other than the typical fading paint.
I致e put about 8 hours on it so far- it痴 still snowing but I put the rotary cutter on it and cleaned up some pretty thick garbage in one of the pastures and it did quite well.
