Hello folks.

Looking for a sanity check on several Kubota compacts:

L3400/HST/LA463 16,350
L3130/HST/LA513 18,650

Thanks in advance

Only a few posts so far welcome!!

there are some regional price differences that float around they can vary by about $1,000 dollars. Do a search the button is just below the yellow header and read through what others have paid. Also in Jan.2005 Kubota did a price increase of about $1,000.

For the 3130 I would highly recommend getting the 723 loader and bucket it has a lot more ability than the 513. Do a search on that also, most everyone agrees.

Also there is a thread about tires and being charged extra for R-4's or not, if you are getting them search for that thread.

I just purchased a 3130 GST, 723 loader and oversized ags for 18,600 in July this year. If i remember the HST was around $1000 more This was a western NY price. I have 35 hours on it and am quite impressed. I read about the loaders and got this one because of the increased lift cap. and the rollback of the bucket. It is very easy to get a FULL bucket as you drive into the pile. I am used to clutching from my other tractor but this one you only clutch when engaging the PTO. I think I'd have a sore ankle {like a carpotunnel thing of the wrist} using the HST Pedal but thats another unending story...

Thanks,

Seems like the dealer is in the ballpark. If it turns out to be Kubota I think think choices will be L3400/4400. I can forego the frills of the Grand L for the boost in h.p..

The main chores are pasture maintenance/snow removal on a 900ft gravel drive. I'll also be needing to attend to a refencing project soon (4 board rail). While the property is smallish ( less then 10 acres) it is very hilly and there seems to be at least one blizzrd every other year that incapacitates my 2wd MF-165(no FEL).

I've all but eliminated JD and NH. All fine tractors I'm sure. Just not for me.

I'll be checking into MF and Montana in the next several weeks.

Thanks again

Check out the Mahindra 3215 w/ML111 Loader. There are some very substantial incentives on that tractor during the month of September.
The 3215 will impress you and should save you some bucks if you are willing to take a look at it.
