Price Check BX2230 w/hoe, L3400 price check

[ArkCivEngr]

Dropped by my local dealer today and got the following quote:

L3400DT R-1 12,395
LA463 3,690
BH75 6,100

Tax of 1,394 gives 23,579. There's another Kubota dealer (with a great reputation) about 45 minutes away who has beaten this guy pretty handily on some quotes in the past. He quoted me 20,885 on the same setup previously, but that was with the BL4690 hoe. I had been looking at the Deere 990 with a similar setup (430 loader, 8B hoe) but they're wanting 26,800. I just don't see that the extra $$$ would be worth it.

While there, I noticed a BX2230 with one of those Woods Groundbreaker hoes on it. That didn't make much sense, seeing as they make the BX23 with the hoe standard. It must be quite a bit cheaper than a BX23.

The deal is the Bx2230 isn't designed to handle a BH.
You can't buy a Bx23 with out the BH.
The BX 2230 with the woods BH is A MORE EXPENSIVE OBBED UP WAY to get the same size tractor with a BH as the BX23.

* NOPE Not at all, in fact just the opposite is true.

A cobbled up BX 2230 with the woods BH was $16300 to $17800 when
I bought my BX23 with the KUBOTA BH equipped as listed below for $15500 a savings of between 800 to 2300 dollars over a BX2230 with the woods bh.
