I am also in the KC area, on the KS side. I put about 10 hours on my 3215 this past weekend. Great tractor.

Im assuming you guys are dealing with valley equip, how has your experience been with them

ranwin33 · Sep 27, 2011

I tried buying from Blue Valley but went with Straub International out of Wichita instead and have not regretted the decision one bit.

PM me if you would like more information.

Thanks,

I lived in Olathe for 12 years before moving to the unincorporated area of Johnson County. I bought from BV tractor in 2007. My 3215 has been great and the dealer has been okay. They deal more in zero turns I think. I had one warranty claim completed by them and it took them longer than I expected. I saw Straub at the Topeka Farm Show and they seem very squirt away.

Go with the pallet forks, you won't be disappointed. The uses for them are endless.

Agreed on the pallet forks. I use them all the time.
