There has been about 2 or 3 threads on the GT3500 on the board in the last week or so.
Do a search and see what comes up?

3200s are great GTs--very capable and durable. But, if you are looking at new and want a 3pt on a lawn mower, then your best bet is to check out the various SCUTs on the market. The Kubota BX, MF GC, and JD 2305 all come with mfwd, diesels, 3pt, and pto. IDK what the 3pt costs to add to a 3200, but by the time you buy the tractor, deck, and add a 3pt the price has to be approaching $8K which gets awfully close to the purchase price of a BX1860 w/ MMM.

Scarey -
Both replies are correct.
There have been a few other posts on the GT3200 if you look thru the Cub Cadet postings.
The cost of a new 3200 with hitch, blower, 3-pt and 3-pt accessories will indeed come close to a sub-compact price. What Baucom failed to mention is that since you're checking out a Cub, Cub Cadet Yanmar makes a great subcompact as well, the SC 2400. There's also a post on this machine in the CC forum.
To answer your questions more specifically, the GT 3200 is an excellent machine. I've owned several of them. The snowblower has been around for awhile, it was used on the former Cub Super Garden Tractors, and is an awesome blower.
As far as 3-pt attachments, I know Cub makes a hydraulic tiller for the 3200, and you can use other 3-pt Cat "0" attachments, but they are not very common.
All depends on what you are looking to do.....
I will probably be selling my 3200 next month, with a 60" deck, blower, and have a new 3-pt hitch I've never used.....send me a private message if interested. Good luck either way!

Thanks for replys- I will mainly be using the tractor for lawn moeing & snowremoval.I was just curious about the 3pt-maybe just using it with a scrper box. I was also concerned about the blower & its ability to handle the mound left by town plow at end of driveway.Sorry such long reply-thanks again,Scott

I have a 3184 and a 3 point. My 3 point is from cub and I think they cost about $800 new. As always you would be better off buying a used 3200 which you could get from $3K - $4K. I paid $3K and it came with a 3 point. I did need to replcae the carb, but other than that is works great and only has 125 hours.
Check out these 3 point cat 0 attachments.
I got the 48" blade
Garden Tractor attachments
I also purchased this Cat 0 Attachment. Which comes with a 2" receiver, a spot for 4 suit case weights, and pallet forks. Click on skip intro, click on rear attachments, and page through until you see the one with the firewood on the back. I paid $242 shipped to my door step.
ALZ Welding
You can also purchase a loader for a 3000 series

They do make this for a 3000 I called them and it is $2,500.
I think for about $5k - $6 a guy could get a good used 3200 put a loder on, a 3 point on, and have a ton of attachments. That is a pretty good way to go for not much money.
