Ok I narrowed it down to Kubota L3130 or JD3320, But what I like about the Kubota is that they have more lift capicity then the deere. Kubota does not list pivot point as that is inaccurate because that is with no bucket. They list bucket center and forward. What I like about the deere is the modern design on the loader and tractor it self. Here is the setup Loader, Backhoe, R4's, Mid PTO and soft cab for the kubota 31600.00. Same for JD minus the soft cab as I am not sure the offer it. The deere is more money with out the cab. What would you guys do. This is so confuseing /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif. Please help. Need to buy within a week.

What happened with the Deere 3720, with 400cx and 47 backhoe you were buying?

Ditto what Tim said. What do you want to do?
Unfortunately your profile doesn't give us information on your property size, type, or intentions. Neither does your post. The 3320 with 300CX is a nice capacity machine, but it is no heavyweight high capacity machine, I'd suggest it is better suited for some tasks and not so for others. But as an all around machine, it is far from light and still not too heavy so it makes a great middle of the road do it all type machine. I liken it to the NH or Case TC33/DX33 machines. They don't have the capacity of the L3130 with 723 loader but they certainly are nice machines and fit in slightly tighter places and leave less impact.
So I guess intended uses, over the long term, would dictate the machine I chose.

Why are you getting a mid PTo with the Kubota? What backhoe is it?
Well I went with the L3130. I drove it today and loved it. Deere was nice to, But to much money. Backhoe is the BH90 18" HD bucket. My kubota dealer was excellent as far as showing me everything about the tractor. I am using it for landscape stuff at the house. My setup is L3130 HST, loader L723 72 HD bucket, BH90 hoe 18' HD bucket, Soft cab with heat only, R4's loaded. Perfect for me.
