Buying a Kubota L3560HST-LE

[JeepHead]

Am I reading that correctly, is that wiper fluid? I assume for the ballast. My quote has bio fluid (beet juice) and subframe install $1,635.00.

Yes, I assume so. I didn't buy that tractor or buy from that dealer. What is the subframe for? Are you ordering a backhoe with it?

This is some good information. I just called my dealer to have him check on the NCHA membership and if it still applies. Thanks for posting.

You have to be a member and I had to show my member card.

Did the quotes include sales taxes?

Final price out the door.

If the extra $ isn't a big deal, I would move to the 4060. The 4060 is physically a larger tractor than the 3560 is, it's not just more HP.

Absolutely. A 6’ rotary cutter sticks out there and is a bit much for a small tractor when lifted on the 3ph. And 30 pto hp is the absolute minimum for a 6’ cutter.

Yes that was the original intent. Used backhoes in this area are hard to come buy.

When I bought my new Kubota two years ago, I worked 5 dealers at the same time and told each that I was working with the other. 3 came in at the exact same price, two brought the numbers down a little more with one being $1K less than any of the others. All 5 dealers offered a $3K discount since I was paying cash. I also got an extra $1K off from joining the Nation Cutting Horse Association, which was a free membership.

How does the equine rebate work? Does the dealer process it and take it off the purchase price? My dealer has never used it but he is looking into how it works.

Came right off the total price. I am not sure but I heard they either lowered it or stopped it all together.

I prefer the L2296 round back construction grade bucket. It's heavier and a few $$ more but worth it for what I do.

It sheds material better and has a replaceable cutting edge.

That's what I went with for my L5460. I did add the cutting edge to mine.
