what prices are you getting for this combo? Thanks ! Having a heck of a hard time with Kobota and dealer here in OREGON...
PS: also does $7000.00 sound OK for A BH4690 backhoe...

thanks IN advance

When I bought my 4690 for my B2910 (four months after the original tractor purchase) I had the dealer have Kubota ship it directly to me and I installed it myself. I got it with two buckets - a 10" and 16" (I would recommend the 12" and the 24" buckets - in hindsight I wish I had gotten them instead)

FWIW, I paid $6100 and change (plus sales tax, but no freight) since the dealer didn't have to touch it.

Thats a fair price with everything installed. The mountings for the L series are about $400 more expensive than the B's.

Need to know the whole package to fairly compare, even without regional differences, as well as consider how long ago others made their purchase. Heavy duty buckets, quick attach, loaded tires, delivery, etc. can bump it quite a bit My dealer wanted $600 more for industrial tires over the ag tires.

I'm also always curious how much others paid and often think I might have done better. Some folks appear to have beaten my price by $1,000 or so. Three months ago I paid $18, 125 for the following package, delivered to my property:
L3130hst-f
LA723 with square bucket, no quick attach
ag tires, loaded

Additional $300 for a tooth bar and $425 for 6' box scraper.

If you got industrials, quick attach and heavy duty bucket, you can see how quickly it goes up from what I paid.

Got a L3130 about a month ago, but ours has the LA513 fel which is not as heavy duty as the LA723. Ours has the industrial tires and a quick attach bucket. The transmission is a GST, which may not be so bad.
This package cost 17,900. I talked to a man from around Elijay and he bought an L3430 with the regular transmission and a LA723 for about the same price we paid for the L3130 GST with the LA513 bucket. I would rather have the deal he got, but I'm okay with what we have. With me, there is always a better deal turning out there after I make the purchase. I wish I could join a Kubota club and go to a swap meet about once a year.

Seems from the posts that I've read I probably paid high end, but not over the top. I certainly appreciate your input during these stressful DEALER / Manufacturer/ customer problem days.

you have to check around! what appears high in OREGON may be cheap somewhere else . Tractor prices are very much dependent on the area of the country u are in. pretty much the same as anything I.E gasoline prices.

You may have paid a bit more, than others but you got your tractor be happy about it and go play, I mean work.

There are regional differences and in January was a big price increase of almost $1,000.
