Bigmike i bought my L3000dt in sept of last year. i have put 87 hours on it and it has worked without a problem one. i have been really surprised at what it will do. i have cut some areas with a brushhog that i really thought would have bogged it down and it just chewed it up.
I bought the tractor ,FEL ,woods bb60c,atlas boxblade and 16x16 disc's for $15080. delivered!
now my FEL isnt set up for the backhoe. i don't know how much more that was. your price probably includes remote hyd port's ? i would guess the back hoe is hyd?
good tractor for the money. no digital display! no frills ! not a yuppie tractor just a worker!
