New Kubota L4060

[jcc320]

Thought I would post a few pictures of the new tractor and the old tractor. I'm still waiting on the backhoe, brackets on back order for 2 months. If anyone is interested I gave $23,100 for just the tractor, it's a DT no fancy transmission for me. The whole package with loader and BH92 was 38k. I really wished I would have just gotten a BX25 TLB, I really didn't need that much tractor since I decided to keep the old tractor. Also a picture of the pond I have been digging out with the box blade.

Congrats on a very nice tractor. Be sure to post some pics of it at work.

I was trying to find a belt for a Bush Hog finish mower this weekend and looked at the new Kubota and Kioti tractors. They sure have made a lot of improvements.
My 25 year old L3600 still does a great job but something bigger sure would be nice. I kinda got the fever but...

I get the fever every 12 years. This time I just couldn't part with the old tractor, the hard part is getting everything in the garage. I had 1/2 inch to spare making it through the garage door, glad I didn't go any bigger or I would have had to put a higher door.

When your BH92 arrives, you may have another issue. When it's on the tractor and "pinned up" in thr transport position, the boom is pretty tall, maybe taller than the tractor. Don't ask me how I know such things can happen.

Thar's some fever you've got! Need a BX and end up with an L4060 + FEL + BH! What the heck. Go back and order the BX too!

Thats a good point, looking at the specs it's around 100 inches. So I could do some cutting and replace the door and get another 12 inches but that wouldn't be enough anyway. I guess the only way is to lower the BH when going through the door and then raising it back up once I get it through the door.

Yeah, once I started watching all the BX videos on youtube I realized that would have been the perfect little tractor for digging a few stumps and some other work around the house. But I had already ordered the 4060 and didn't want to leave the dealer stuck with it. Guess I can struggle along with the too big of tractor, poor me.

Wow. Congratulations!!!! I am super jealous!! I need to stop being a pu**y and just buy that Grand L 5460 I have been looking at for the past 3 months, and stop wasting my time comparing similar models offered by other brands.

LOL, yeah just do it, no need to compare any other brands ! I looked around a little bit, but there was no way I would consider another brand just because 30 years of service without any breakdowns so far, well except for me stripping out the drain plug on the oil pan and having to replace it recently.

I like them both! Your old tractor looks well cared for.

Thanks, I do try to take care of it. It is mostly just big lawnmower other than some occasional dirt work.
