That's great. For the same machine (R4s vs. R1s) here in PA I was quoted $2K - 3K more (5 dealers). Do you thing the dealers are just hiking up the price? I'd appreciate some input. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

I have the same setup except the Woods loader instead of the Kubota. The 3130 has done everything I ask it to do. We are going to drag a few trees and clear an old road bed this weekend if weather permits. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
I will most likely sell mine this summer /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gifas I am in the market for the new Kubota M6040. Only because my land has went from 50ac to 172 ac this past year.

Nice tractor. I have had the L3130 GST with the 723 loader for a year now, 10 acres w/ horses in North Georgia, and not much I have thrown at it - stumps, brush, gravel, boulders, rocks, horse manure, or box blading have slowed it down. I have also dragged construction dumpsters, and bumped a 20' container in place. I wished I would have bought the L3830, just because, not that it really would make much of a difference in what I do. I do like the bush hog for the pastures, and am currently looking for a rear finish mower to really polish the pastures. Combined with a used (80 hour) bush hog bh750 back hoe, bush hog post hole digger, box blade, rock rake, and an RTV (you have to have the matching set) it's all I could ever need... Did I mention Stihl chainsaws match also? I bought the Markham grapple for it, but it was a bit heavy for it so I sold it. Currently looking for a lighter weight brush grapple that can handle the occasional log. I went ahead with the larger R4 tires filled, the cost was under 2K to change out. You have come to the right place for advice, a lot of good people on TBN have helped me out. Have fun and be safe..
