John, glad to hear you're getting the 1140, they have a longer bed with the second seats folded down, I'll like that really well for the extra carrying space. Of course that will be after you trade up to the 4seat version with cab, heat and air when it comes out.:licking::licking:

Have and still own a Kubota Orange B7510. I bought a new green JD4320 which better suites
some, but not all of my horse acreage (18+) requirements. Orange mechanics, reliability 8/10.
JD, so far 10/10.
My 2 yr old grandson still likes Green Tractor, Orange Tractor.
regards,
Steve

There are now four Kubotas within a mile of my house (including my BX).
Then recently, two other neighbors started showing symptoms. One with an L, and the other with an M. While in the initial stages, both seem happy and healty enough. But I fear now that its entered their bloodstreams, they can never be rid of it. :D
There are 5 Kubotas close to me .
One is just under 1.5 miles from me.
Another one is just over 1.3 miles away.
The other 3 are mine here on my place.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Side note
Three of my next door neighbors have JDs.
but I'm still ahead of them with my 3 Kubotas.
They need 6 more JDs to catch up with me.

1140 Camo in the office/show room/parts counter (just put together by Gary)with worksite tires already installed or ATV tires if I prefer for the same price. I took it from two rows of seats to one row and back with Garys help in a few minutes. Now that I know where the catches are and the sequence, it won't take me a couple of minutes by myself. Very interesting. Barlows can get me an Orange one for $200 less without speedometer and has ATV tires ($200 less than Worksite tires).
Kubota just gave a dealer incentive of a few hundred dollars off which Steve told me will apply to my purchase.
I think he wrote my name down before I left so he'll know who I am when I come back.:)

Is Barlows like Subway? Give you a card they stamp and every tenth one's free? :laughing:

I have contracted a differnt strain of orange ish bug. It is caused from the orange bug its self. It is what I have grown to learn is the attachmentidleness syndrome..For some reason I feel like I have to have alllllll kinds of attachments for my Kubota now! Absolutely just cant HAVE ONE!! rotary cutter, box blad, disc, 3pt trailer hitch and a boom pole to play chess with all this mess..Now I am breaking out in a sweat to have a rotary tiller and its November:ashamed: Is there a CURE:(

No or if so they didn't for me. Maybe with this 12th one they will but Steve hasn't mentioned it to me. He's been giving me numbers of dollars like he's expecting me to pay for this one like I have the others. Maybe he'll surprise me at the "signing".:D

I think they do,but the fine print is you have to pay full retail. Sales and clearance items not valid for the offer. Just like most bogo offers. :D

Johnthomas, did you ask if you could pay full price for the first 10 tractors? :laughing:

I did not ask because I thought that each one was my last purchase.:) I guess or actually know that if I had paid retail (MSRP) the extra cost would have been more than the cost of this purchase so maybe you have a good point. Not sure Barlows knows how to charge MSRP. Never heard of them doing that. I think Steve follows the Saturn theory of here's the price and starts with it discounted.

Never having been exposed to tractors growing up, I had little immunity to the ravages of Kubotitis. Within six months, I was exibiting symptoms of Kubota ownership. :D

The only cure for these strange delusions is to go Red or Green...just kidding. I was so close to buying orange but Red had better financing, a similar price, and I liked the backhoe and a few other little things on the M-F a little better. That being said, I'm sure I'd being seeing orange right now if the deal would have went the other way....two of my neighbors have Kubs.
