Sounds high, if you go to muttonpower.com and look at their prices, they have a new 3520 with 300x loader and comfortguard cab for only 3k more.

Well, I went and test drove a Kubota 3940 just to give a good comparison and then went and test drove the JD 3520. The JD just seemed like a more comfortable and easier to operate machine.
Final deal was the 3520 woth a 300 cx loader, Frontier RC 2060 5' bush hog, quick hitch, automotive cruise control, front and rear work lights, 3rd scv, umbrella, draw bar and receiver hitch. Out the door for $28,422.
I'm sure there are better deals, but I was pretty happy with it. It was $2500 cheaper than the best deal the local dealer would give me. I wound up getting it from a dealer 40 min away in NC.
Gonna be hard waiting for it,as it'll arrive at the dealer while I'm out at sea, so I'll have to schedule the delivery for April sometime.

Got it delivered yesterday and spent the mowing down 4' fields. Got about 5 acres done and it didn't break a sweat. I did get a chance to try out the 4wd on a few drainage ditches. Fortunately for me, the 5' bush hog that they had set aside for me wound up getting sold out from under me and so they coughed up a 6' frontier bush hog. I also opted for the 5' box blade. Only issue is that neither the 3rd SCV or the front work lights were installed. The dealer is a little lethargic, but their prices are good.
Anyway, I'll post some pics this weekend.
