Man you must have a bug on me. I told my wife when we seen it I'd rather buy the other model and give it a nice coat of orange base and lay down some ghost flames with the air brush and spray on the clear BUT she then reminded me that we don't have any more money now that we bought the new tractor :shocked: :laughing:

:thumbsup:

Tell her the Husky is half the price of the Kubota... "A heck of a deal"

Went to Costco again and double checked the toolbox. It really is pretty thin metal and looks like you could bend it without much of an effort. it does not look to be a very good value but that's just my opinion.

The deal breaker for me was no 3PH or FEL, and the seat didn't look too comfy... Steve

Was in to Costco today and took a close look at this item. Reading the fine print I saw where this item was imported exclusively by Costco and also saw another company's name. I suspect this item is made by and independent Co with a license to use the Kubota name, i.e. Kubota not directly involved with this product.

Same goes for the Kawasaki labeled drill Costco sells. Look at the box closely and you will see it is made/imported by AllTrade with license to use the Kawasaki name.

I have actually seen "Snap-On" licensed products/ tools at costco. Off the top of my head, they have mostly been work lights and flashlights though.

Perhaps the sheet metal does seem thin, but at least the PTO housing stays in one piece when you run a tiller...

ignore -- somehow it double-posted.

I just picked up one of these toolboxes from Costco. They had them marked down to $299 from $360. It's a pretty nice toolbox for the money considering its Made in China. It comes with drawer liners, plus I like the side cabinets. The only bad thing is you can't stack other boxs on top of it. It also looks good sitting next to my B7610. The company that makes it is Trademark Industries Inc.

Went by Costco recently and noticed the toolboxes seemed to be marked up to $389. I don't recall exactly but am pretty sure they started out at $359 or possibly $369.

I bought one of these "Kubota" chests last December when they were $359. I took it back after a while as I needed a larger chest. However, the drawers were very nice and solid for this price range. The drawer latches worked as well as any chest I've used and better than many. I liked the thing, just too small. I thought it was rather well-made, particularly for a Chinese product.

Meanwhile, they have ranged from $299 last month to back up to $329 now at my Costco store. And, by the way, at least the individual box I had matched, color-wise, my tractor quite well. Perhaps some manufactured batches are better than others.

Saw it marked down to $329 at Costco last week.
