L3710

Anonymous Poster · Jan 29, 2002

IT WAS A GREAT DAY SUNDAY, A BIG PATRIOT'S WIN AND I FINALLY TOOK DELIVERY OF MY 3710 HST FROM CARVER EQUIPMENT. I WANT TO THANK ALL OF THE GOOD PEOPLE ON TRACTOR BY NET. I HAVE BEEN READING ALL THE THREADS AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE AND I HAVE LEARNED ALOT OVER THE PAST 6 MONTHS. THIS IS MY FIRST POST AND I THOUGHT I MIGHT SHARE MY EXPERIENCE BUYING THIS MACHINE.

I NEVER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT I WOULD BUY SOMETHING LIKE A TRACTOR OVER THE INTERNET SIGHT UNSEEN, BUT I GREW CONFIDENT AFTER READING ALL THE INTERESTING THREADS.

I SOLD MY L 3600 GST AND AFTER A SHORT WHILE NEW
IT WAS A MISTAKE. SO THEN BEGINS THE SEARCH FOR A NEW KUBOTA. WELL AFTER A SHORT WHILE OF PRICING NEW 3710'S I GOT STICKER SHOCK. THATS WHEN I TRIED CARVER EUIPMENT, THEY HAD A PROGRAM TRACTOR (L3710 HST) W/125 HRS AT A GOOD PRICE.

CARVER SET THE TRACTOR UP JUST HOW I ASKED 682 LOADER, ATI QUICK ATTATCH, 2 WORK LIGHTS, R-4S W/ BALACE, FOLDING ROPS AND DELIVERED TO ROBERT WOLFE OF WOODBURRY TRACTOR IN CONNETTICUT.

ROBERT PUT ON THE BRADCO 509 KUBOTA ORANGE BACK HOE AND DELEVIRED IT TO MY DOOR SUNDAY.

THIS TRACTOR IS PERFECT, IT IS NEXT TO NEW W/18 MONTHS LEFT ON THE WARRANTY. I WAS ABLE TO SET THIS MACHINE UP THE WAY THAT I WANTED IT AND SAVE THOUSANDS BECAUSE OF THIS SIGHT. THE PEOPLE AT CARVER EQUIPMENT (AL MURRAY ESPECIALLY) AND ROBERT WOLFE OF WOODBURRY TRACTOR WERE EXCELLENT TO DEAL WITH, VERY FAIR AND PROFESSIONAL. IT WAS A VERY POSSITIVE EXPERIENCE.

I FINALLY GOT A CHANCE TO DO SOME DIGGING AND LOADER WORK TODAY AND THIS SET UP SURPASSES MY EXPECTATIONS, I AM VERY PLEASED, THANKS AGIAN

Lucas.....congratulations. You have made excellent choices....in tractor, in model, in equipment, in dealers, and in price. 125 hours is indistinguishable from new. Have fun!

Congratulations, Lucas!

Sounds like you got one sweet package that should last you for many years. If you don't mind me asking, why was the L3600 GST a "mistake"?

Now all you have to do is register yourself so's you can post pictures of your new prize.

Oh, and by the way -- although we do have a lot of really old folks on this board, YOU DON'T NEED TO SHOUT! /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Harv - I think he said "selling it was a mistake". At least, that's the way I read it...

I think he said "selling it was a mistake".

Lucas,
Once you get use to your new L3710 w/all of the goodies,you shall out shine what every the L3600 had to offer.
Well lets hope the Pats can do it this time. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

THANKS FOR ALL THE CONRGADS.

HARV, THE MISTAKE WAS SELLING IT. I NEW IT THE DAY IT WENT, BUT IT HAS WORKED ALOT BETTER FOR ME BECAUSE BELIEVE IT OR NOT THERE WAS ONLY 4 YEARS AND 800 HRS IN DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE 2 TRACTORS BUT THE 3710 TO ME SEEMS REAL TIGHT AND STRONGER. IT MAY BE THE R4'S AS OPPOSED TO TURF TIRES I DON'T KNOW BUT THERE IS DEFINITELY A DIFFERENCE IN PERFORMANCE.

AS FOR REGISTERING AND PICTURES I WILL TRY. I REAL SLOW AT FIGURING MY WAY AROND ON THIS COMPUTOR STUFF

The CapLock key is on the lower left. All caps is offensive to some with thin skin.

All caps is offensive to some with thin skin

Tain't offensive to me, but darned if it isn't easier to read in lower case./w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif And don't ask why, 'cause I've wondered about it myself. Seems logical to me that the larger letters (caps) would be easier to read, but just ain't so (for me, anyway).

but darned if it isn't easier to read in lower case

It's because almost everthing we read is in lower case (newspapers, magazines, letters, and so on). Upper case is often used for headlines, and other attention-getters; so the perception is "shouting". Funny how that happens, huh? /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif
