Price Check kubota 3430 GST pricing

[JIM4]

If anyone can help with pricing. I live in VA and have had a few prices for a 3430 GST with 723 loader and Quick release coupler. The prices are 2 at $20,200 and one at $20,300. Is that a good price? Also do any of you know a better price or location. I can travel a few states over for some savings. On another subject does Kubota make implements. I see them in the brochures, but noone says they have them because Kubota doesn'e make them.
Any help would be great.

You got to figure if after traveling around that you will save anything.Just the cost for gas would scare me. If this helps I bought an L3830 w/FEL (723) ag tires filled in Mar 2002 for $21,500. So I would say that you have been given a fair price. Now I want to trade up to an L 5030.

Which Kubota dealers gave you your pricing? If you post that information, the group would be able to direct you to dealers that haven't given you a quote.

Jim4,

I just looked through my notes. The quote I received recently from Woodstock Equipment on an L3430 HST, LA723 loader with a quick attach bucket was around $19,900. However, the L3430 GST with the same setup should be somewhat less expensive. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Don't know if it helps but I had a deal lined up for a 3130 HST with 723 loader, QA, 60" rotary cutter, first service, delivered for 20,000.00. Instead I am buying a 3830 HST, 723 with QA, rotary cutter, first service, tires filled, for 22,500? A good dealer is the most important though I have found out.

Thanks to everyone for answering my questions. OK lets see if I can answer you all back.
I have gotten quotes from Haynes Outdoors, farm service Lynchburg, and state equipment. It is difficult to figure out if these are good prices or not. One vendor had howse implements and from what I have been reading they are thin and not so strong. Another carries Land pride, those sound good, but I am new to tractors.
As far as travelling, I live in Covington and not much around us. I have to travel anyways. I guess Stauton, or Roanoke are the closest, I have not contacted them yet, don't know who they are. The gas is coming down in price. So not sure if that matters too much, if I can save 1000 or so.
Jim,
If you could send me the number for woodstock equipment. That seems cheaper than my quotes. What kind of implements do they carry? I am looking for Bush Hog, Land Pride and other quality tools. Jim when was your quote for 19,900?
Everyone says a good dealer is important, I can see that, but is a good dealer worth $2000 today? I have looked around for a slightly used 3430 or 3830 and can't seem to find the right one. I have cash so no financing is required. Any help? thanks

Jim, I live up 220 in Warm Springs and use the Staunton dealer for parts but have not bought a tractor from them. Their dealership is right across the road from the Lowes/Walmart shopping center. Unfortunately, I do not have their tel. no. right now for you. Check their business hours before you go, most dealers close early during the week and about noon on Sats.
HTH, Lou

Don't rule out the Howse implements until you look at them. I think they make a couple of grades of implements. I had a 42" Howse bush hog that I hated but have a 4' Howse box blade that is very strong and I really like it.

I see a lot of Howse implements around East Texas and lots of folks are happy with them. You might need to get into their better grade to get what you want. Look at all of them before you lay down your $$$$.
