Tried a L 3130 both GST and Hydro, like them both but.....I like the Deere pedals.....sorry guys. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif
Love that Kubota panel and the over all feel of the beast. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
We tried both a Deere 4410 and 4310 both e-hydro and e-reverser. Overall I like the Kubota better....except the pedals versus the rocker and the loader control position. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Anyway prices!
L 3130 R-1's LA513 loader $16500.

LA 723 Loader 550.
QA Bucket 380.

HST trans 1200.
R-4 tires 872.

Any thoughts on the R-4 tires or anything else. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
My wife and our 14 year old son tried both the HST and GST, liked them both. Wife doesn't have a strong feeling except she also likes the pedals versus the rocker but my son loves the Deere. Go figure! Doesn't even try to drive the Jag but likes the tractors and enjoyed playing with them! /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
But I think we are tending to go HST in either the Kubota or the Deere. If I did think I was going to be doing any ground engaging stuff would go GST.
Like the dealer but we also had good feelings about the Deere dealer in Salem and in Clackamas. So right now between the Deere and the Kubota. An off chance that the M-F dealer (really liked them!) might come up with some numbers on a 1440 or 1433 that might be too hard to turn down. Case and New Holland were also rans, since the dealers just didn't take any interest. Case said a HST tractor would cost....and they might take a while getting it. New Holland started about 19000 for just the tractor and didn't seem interested...
The real wild card are two Goldoni's that the Case dealer would like to get rid of, no market for them here. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
