GC2310

Oh yeah, I really like the fact that the 3PH folds up so that it doesn't need to be completely removed for use of the BH. And I like that I can get AG tires that aren't that aggressive but look like they can handle muck and snow pretty well.

By the way, anyone have a price on the turf tires and wheels for mowing. I want to get Ag tires with the set up and get the extra set of turf tires and wheels.

I bought my tractor with ag tires and ended up getting them foam filled. With all the rain we had this past summer, the heavy ag tires were leaving too big of marks in the yard so I bought a set of turf tires. As I recall I paid around $400 for the set of 4 (wheels and tires).

My dealer is Turner Tractor in Evans City, PA.

Archery.... I am in the same boat as you. The more I reserch and look, the more I prefer the MF over the Kubota. The best price I have gotten locally is 18,700. I plan on getting the blade and box blade from rural king

There are some advantages to both tractors. I have found that I can save thousands by shopping around on both MF and Kubota. Where are you located? I called Lemons Farm Equipment and talked to Marilyn, she was great. As far as prices I can save a bunch by going out of town. PM me if you want the prices that I was given.

The MF has several advantages not too many drawbacks. Most of the differences are splitting hairs.

Also if you wanted to compare tractors I posted a spreadsheet before and it may be helpful comparing specs. Here it is again.

yes... I have seen your spreadsheet and it has helped me greatly. You posted it under my other post in the other forum If you would PM me the prices you have come up with local. The only thing I guess still keeping me from Puchasing the MF is that I can pick up a new BX 24 set up the same way for 17 flat.

Archerynut,

I have a GC2310 with just the loader and backhoe so far. I live here in Massachusetts and have 2+ acres. I bought mine brand new last September
for $15,500. It is a 2006. It is a top quality machine you will not be disappointed with.

The only thing I would change is the lever to set the parking brake. It is too low to reach comfortably from the seat.

I drove the JD 2305 and the transmission was noisy and the loader seemed
a little loose. As soon as I tested the GC2310 I could tell a big difference.
The tranny was quiet and the FEL was tight and responsive. The backoe is
heavy duty and well designed. The steering smooth and tight. All in all I would recommed the GC2310... the attachments are pricey though. Plus the
2310 looks better.

Can anyone tell me what they paid for their snowblower and MMM? My dealer wants $3400 for the blower and around $1800 for the MMM 60"...

Good luck,
Cucch

I paid $3180 for the blower last december (includes mounting and tax). Not much in the way of mounting, just attaching the hyd. hose retainer.

 

[archerynut]

I was quoted here in PA $2100 for the 60" MMM. However the prices that I was getting from West Virginia were a whole lot less, just not itemized.
